Lush Brows for Less

Maybelline Brow Drama
$7.99

I was in CVS today to exchange some AA batteries for AAA's that I bought in error...naturally, my visit did not end there.

I was completely out of Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz (how does that happen, seemingly overnight, with all self sharpening products???) I still have plenty of A.B.H. Dip Brow Pomade left, but I thought it would be nice to have a product with a built in brush, so I could travel with it in my makeup bag.

Anastasia Beverly Hills is not inexpensive, but she is is the brow guru.  I came very late to daily brow grooming, so I reasoned  go for the best, since I had a lot of catching up to do.

I happened first upon Maybelline's Brow Drama, "Sculpting Brow Mascara". I like that it is described as a tinted gel "mousse" already envisioning pumped up brows and the Soft Brown, one of three shades, (Dark Blonde and Dark Brown additionally) looked like a good match.

8 shades $18

My brow fixation continues...I've come to believe, brows, not the eyes, are the window to my soul.  I feel absolutely naked without a finished brow and it's the starting point of my makeup after BB cream or foundation.

Anastasia Beverly Hills definitely produces the best brow products on the market. I have used both her Brow Gel and Brow Wiz pencils; both excellent.

I decided to tip into her Dipbrow Pomade after admiring them at Ulta.  There are 8 shades and find your best match can be a bit tricky, so I asked for advice. Naturally, the shade we decided on, medium brown, was sold out.
