Collection 'Work The Colour' Eyebrow Kit Review!

Hello!

Firstly, I must apologize for my lack of posts. I've been busy with exams and such recently. 
About a month ago I found myself in town with an hour to kill. Naturally, I wondered into boots to see if there was anything new and I came across this beauty: 

Collection Eyebrow Kit - £3.99 Boots
I was instantly drawn in by the packaging, not the best looking but it is sturdy and secure meaning it's perfect for travelling. 
I'm always on the lookout for new eyebrow products as I can never seem to find the perfect shade for me and I cannot stand eyebrow pencils. Everyone else who uses them seems to suit the look really well and it looks great! But when I attempt an eyebrow pencil it looks like I've drawn two lines with a sharpie. Not a great look! So I tend to opt for powder. 

Another thing that got my attention with this product is the fact that it comes with a clear mascara. At first I was impressed with it, however I'm not a big fan of the wand. It almost looks like the wand is too big for the bottle so when you try and get the wand out, all the product is scraped off in the process. I suppose this is good in that it removes any excess product, but you're lucky if you get any product at all to be honest. That being said, the kit was only £3.99 so I guess it's not bad for the price. 


The kit also comes with a little double-ended brush, one end being angled and the other being a flat shader. I'm going to be honest- I haven't really used the brush. Maybe I will at some point, but I tend to reach for other brushes instead. 

The actual colours in this kit I think are very good: Pigmented and blendable. As I said, I have such a hard time finding the perfect eyebrow shade and each of these colours on their own are not right. However, I've been mixing the two darker shades together and this seems to be the perfect shade for me! Eureka! Finally, the perfect shade that matches my hair. As for the lightest shade, I'll probably just use that as an eyeshadow as there is no way i'll get that to look right in my brows. The shadows themselves are huge, which means you won't be running out in a hurry. 



Overall, I adore this little product and I will definitely repurchase it when it runs out (which won't be for a long time hopefully!). For £3.99 you can't go wrong, I would recommend this to anyone!

Have you tried it? What did you think? Let me know! 

Thankyou for reading!
