Sleek Makeup Eyebrow Stylist

I'll be honest; I've never really paid that much attention to my eyebrows. I've always plucked them to keep strays at bay, and I'm well aware of the length they should be, thanks to the whole 'line a pen up diagonally from the outer corner of your nose' trick, but until now I've never really bothered too much about styling them on a daily basis and filling them in colourwise. Nowadays, with the likes of Cara D's lucious brows on the scene, I realise how much of a difference styling them can make. They not only frame your eyes but they also balance your features and of course help to strengthen your facial expressions!

I already have Benefit's Brow Zings but I fail to use it on a daily basis - regardless of my 'I-will-look-amazing-today' intentions; I find the two-step, separate brush effort pretty hard work at fart o'clock in the morning...just me? So, I was purposefully looking for something that was fuss-free and easy to apply in a rush. Enter the Eyebrow Stylist from Sleek Makeup. While there's no compact mirror or tweezers included, at £5.99 this is a quarter of the price of Benefit's set - WIN.

In a nutshell, this is a twist applicator that contains an angled pencil on one end and a bristly grooming brush for styling on the other end. I clearly have no idea what this 'bristly' brush is called in the make-up world, but I digress (if you know, enlighten me!). The unique chiselled shape of the pencil is designed for both outlining using the thin angular side and filling in with ease using the flat side.

I find the matte formula glides on easily, and the 'light' shade is natural and matches nicely with my eyebrows. The styling brush is great for blending and combing through afterwards to set my brows. As you can see from the before and after picture below, my eyebrows do benefit from a little styling! And, yup, I'm aware I still gots some work to do on the old styling and shaping technique, but it's a start eh!

Here's a shameless selfie so you can get an overall idea of how it looks. I'm not big on taking posey photos of myself too much (honest!), but when I'm reading blog reviews I really like to see what products look like applied, so I try to remember this whenever I'm blogging about a product myself.
