I received my Anastacia pomade eyebrow yesterday and used it for the first time today. 

My first reaction was "that looks like a magic marker!  Definately a learning curve with this one!

Any tips?  I'm the product of over tweezing.

Thanks

Jumping in here as I use this product. I apply the pomade with an inexpensive ELF angled eyeliner brush and just kind of press onto my brows and using a light touch fill in the area along the top of the brows. 

Perhaps the color you chose is too dark? That happened to me the first time I bought the product.

@ECBG   I find the pomade quite difficult. I prefer a powder and then go over that w/ a fine pencil in hair like strokes. Finish with a brow gel to keep in place. The pomades tend to fill in ALL the brow area. It's hard to get a natural look. Yes, it can be used w/ a fine liner brush to draw in individual hairs, but I don't have the time or the patience. Sorry you're having a tough time with that product.

Thanks, I guess this product has quite a learning curve.

My Mally brow ("wax" and powder combo) migically disappeared, but Shadow's brows don't look any different!

(I seem to have gotten the very last of Mally's).

Thanks for jumping in.  Very glad for discussion!

There was only one taupe.  The color was fine, I put it on like Mally's eyebrow (the hand remembers the movement) and boy!  that was SOME coverage!  I'll just go a little slower........I think!

@ECBG   I use BB's Light Brow Kit...comes with 2 shades of powder. I apply the gel FIRST Benefit) to give the powder something to stick to. It works for me...even where  a few bald spots have begun in my "tails".

One of my YTers beauty gurus did a review on this product recently.  She was not a fan.  She much preferred her Benefit Gemme Brow.  That's what I use but admittedly my brows are my weakest link in my makeup routine.  Like most of us here, I over plucked for years.  Because of that, I have a patch on one of my brows where hair doesn't grow.  I need to learn how to make strokes that look more hair like.  In addition to the Benefit Gemme Brow, I've been using their Precisely My Brow Pencil.  It just doesn't feel natural (or look natural) to have to draw fake brow hairs LOL
