Product Reviewed: Anastasia Highlighting Brow Kit


Anastasia is undeniably THE go-to brow line.  Founder Anastasia has been shaping the brows of celebrities for years.  Her product line allows you to achieve salon-quality shaping at home.  This brow kit showcases what Anastasia does best: shape/color and highlight.  The brow powder trio fits all shades so you'll always look natural.  (Bye-bye mismatched brows!)  The highlighting trio contains silver, gold, and rose shimmer powders that will compliment any eye shadow look.  


I much prefer using powder to pencil--it gives more control and precision, and also provides a more natural texture.  Set this powder with a clear gel (Anastasia's Clear Brow Gel gives great hold without any crunchiness or white residue.), and you'll be set from coffee to cocktails!


The highlight powders add the perfect amount of shimmer to lift brows and brighten the eye area.  Adding shimmer just under the brow will make any dramatic eye look more wearable by balancing darker shadows. Shimmer can also be applied just above the outer half of your brow, or into the inner corner of your eye, to add additional brightness.


Tip: To give brows the most natural look, use a slightly darker powder on outer half of the brow, and a slightly lighter shade to fill in the inner half.  This will mimic the natural shading of brows.


Another Tip: If you're not a shimmer kind of gal, try using a lighter matte shadow under brows to create a lifted look and add lightness to avoid overly-heavy eye shadow looks.
