Review | HD Brows Palette | prettylittlewriter

I have experimented with many different brands and products for my brows, from high-end brands such as Benefit and Estee Lauder, to high street brands like Maybelline. 
However, none of the products gave me quite enough definition and shading as I'd have liked.

That was until I decided to try out the HD Brows brand. The clue is in the name, their products promise to give you pigmented and 'HD' brows, and they certainly did not disappoint!

The product I purchased was the Eye & Brow Palette in the shade 003 Vamp.




The shade I mainly use is Dark Brown, however Medium Brown also works for my skin tone and hair colour. I apply the product with the thin end of the brush provided, and then pop the highlighter on my brow bone underneath. There is also a wax provided, however I have not tried this part of the product out yet.




As you can see, my brows are highly defined thanks to this product, and it matches my hair colour perfectly. It also adds a little extra 'oomph' to the slight arch of my brows. 

Overall I would highly recommend this to anyone searching for the perfect brow product, and £25 for the palette is great value as the shades last a very long time!

It can be purchased here

Have you tried out any HD Brows products? What have your experiences been?
