Here's a review on Benefit Gimme Brow in Medium/Deep.
Price: P1,200.00
Bought From: Free
Other Locations: Available in Benefit Greenbelt 5, Rustan's Makati, Shangri-La Mall, Trinoma, and SM Mall Of Asia
THE VERDICT:
I love my brows, no question about that, but I sometimes hate how I can get so meticulous when grooming them, thus I spend so much time primping that part of my face alone. My usual is a brow wax, brow powder, and brow mascara, and applying and mixing the three takes about 10 minutes of my time, always. :p
I've recently tried Benefit's Gimme Brow-which has been sitting in my kit for about 2 months now, btw-and gosh, I wish I did so earlier. It thickens, defines, and sets brows in a snap-it's a beautiful mash- up of my usual brow products, making brow grooming much easier and faster for me! :D
BENEFIT GIMME BROW IN MEDIUM/DEEP IN DETAIL
This product is a fiber- infused tinted brow gel that makes brows appear thicker and polishes out unkempt brow strands. It comes in two shades only: Light/Medium and Medium/Deep.
Gimme Brow features a small, precise brush that tapers at the tip. It's pretty small and takes a while for me to cover up an entire brow, but at least it's easy to do a clean, spot- on finish with it.
Get easy, pretty, lush brows when you click READ MORE. :D
Medium/Deep is a dark, wooden Brown shade with a red undertone. Pigmentation is medium to heavy and it has a light gel consistency. Formula is infused with wispy cosmetic fibers, the reason why this product makes you look as if you have more brow hair than the usual.

Whoa, wait-where did all that hair come from? :D This product amazingly looks natural! The texture of the product is not at all hard to work with, although it takes a while to set and tends to cling onto the skin if you use a heavy hand so my advice is apply the product using light, upward strokes. Keep a spoolie in hand also to take out the excess and to distribute the gel evenly.
I did not use a brow wax to define my brow here as Gimme Brow was enough to give it a clean outline. However, I think this will only be the case if you have clean, nicely- shaped brows to begin with-it's always easy to style a groomed set of eyebrows.
This product claims to be water resistant. I find that it is long- wearing enough to last any ordinary day even if you sweat profusely and it gives my brows a firm yet soft all- day hold.
Gimme Brow is a great brow fixer especially when you're on the go, always traveling, you're running late for anything, you simply can't afford to spend a lot of time doing your makeup, or you just want a brow product that pretty much does it all for you-it's so compact too and that's another reason to love it. I have this section in my makeup kit called "The Quickies" or a collection of my favorite multitasking, quick beauty fixes and I'm adding Gimme Brow to it!

I really love this. It is so easy to apply on my brows. After brushing i get a good natural eyebrows. I had been repurchased this twice it makes my eyebrow routine quick and easy. I use the light/medium because i am very pale and my brows are thin. This one is a must buy especially for ladies who wants to achieve a fuller brow look. It was a bit pricey but it dries in an instant compare to the other brow mascara that I've tried. Awesome review! It looks good on you by the way. If it wasn't a bit pricey I will give this 5. :)
ReplyDeletewhoa! It's like magic indeed! Like your brow got additional hairs when you applied that product. A-m-a-z-i-n-g!
ReplyDeleteLadies out there with thin brows you gonna check this out.! :)
I can relate. I feel frustrated just thinking about the effort that I have to put in improving my eyebrows' appearance. It takes dexterity and great care in detail when using a pencil to draw/thicken my brows, while making sure they stay natural-looking. I gave it up long ago. But Benefit's Gimme Brow gives me hope. :) It looks so easy to use and your results are wow!
ReplyDeleteSuper impressive! It mimics the brow hairs. I would definitely try this one. Is it economical to use? Or do you need to use a lot to see the result? :)
ReplyDeletethe only product i have tried yet from Benefit is their They're Real Mascara and yes im in love with it!
ReplyDeletemy frustration (before) is how to properly groom my brows and draw them evenly (im grateful that ms ana do it for me and teach me how to take care at them)
i love your full brows ms m (i could say that because i met you on my birthday! -2013)
just by your high ratings of 4/5 i could really say that this product is really worth it (quality and price) because it really makes your brows look natural and you can groom them less than your usual grooming time of 10 minutes hehe..
your kilay is always so on point. i spend a lot of time on my eyebrows too! thank goodness for brow tints
ReplyDeletewow, it's really is great. I would want to have one. I am having a hard time fixing my brows, maybe I just need to practice more but my time will not permit due to everyday morning rush.
ReplyDeleteI like how natural it looks. It really looks good on you and I can just imagine myself using that and it just gives me a smile. Very nice product. :)
Kleah: Oh, same here too! :D
ReplyDeleteSimplyme: Hope you can try it soon. :) I have tutorials on how to groom and fix brows-kindly check my HOW TO archives. :)
Deedee: Thanks to Browhaus! :D
Rhain: Thanks dear! :)
Abegaill: It depends on your brows' thickness. As for me, I don't have to use a lot, but in general, it's quite pigmented. :)
Anna: Thanks for sharing, dear. Given your concern, I think this product will suit you! :)
Sincere: And the best part is it doesn't look fake! :)
Let me know what you think of this post! :)
