Hello Beauties!!!
If you follow me, you might know how much I love to experiment with brow products since I was not naturally gifted with thick and full eyebrows. As at date, I am still enjoying my Innisfree Eco Brow pencil in No. 1 Grey on an almost daily basis since August 2015. I love it so much I just cannot leave the house without it. But okay, we are not just going to flaunt the merits of that pencil since I've already done so in a previous post. Please check it out.
This time, I experimented a whole new kind of product for me (yeah me who live on a lost island), it's the Etude House Color My Brows in #01 Rich Brown. I've never used a brow mascara before and seeing how much Korean makeup artists use those, I badly wanted to try these out and know if they are worth the hype.
What it is
A mascara only for eyebrow to keep its layer neat and give natural but urbane colors.
What it does
- Hide dark & black brow: Providing natural and clear brow colors by hiding its own dark color.
- Easy & Quick brow coloring: Quickly dried to make brow layer and color fixed even while re-applying.
- Brow care: Allantoin, Beeswax, Carnauba wax provide nutrition and moisture on skin and brow.

I bought it on Etude House Online Store for $7.80 only. I bought the 4.5g version but there is also the 9 g version for $ 10.40 . If you wanna commit to it for a longer time, then 9g could be a go-to
The product comes in a very simple packaging. Cute as always. I won't say it is a box. it looks like a piece of folded and cut out paper. Not that practical as the mascara tube kept falling out and it ends up being misplaced every time I look for it. The mascara tube is a simple glossy brown plastic tube.

The spooley is similar to that of a mascara although a little bit thicker. Unfortunately, it didn't make application that easy. If you like the thick straight korean brow style, it could be fine. But if you are more of the thin and arched type, using that brush can be a hassle to draw your brows.

Anyways, regarding the mascara itself, it looks like any usual mascara, a bit thick and waxy. If you smell closely, it has a strong chemical smell, like mascara. It is very pigmented. So, you have to go with a light hand on this one.
It looked a bit too brown for me. When I was choosing among the options on the Etude House website, the first option, although described it as Rich brown, looked more of a greyish brown, like on the model. I really thought it would match my hair. But not at all. It didn't look like in the ad at all. It was so freaking brown. I love Etude but it's not the first time I experienced that kind of misinformation (refer to my review of the Etude House Dear My Wish Lips-Talk O202)

Moreover, I have barely no brows. So this stuff sticks to my skin instead of my brows and makes the latter look so drawn on. I feel like I've used a brow tattoo, like the Clio one instead (it made me not want to try out brow tattoos, though). I watched a few more videos online and found that those who use it have more brows than I do, so they can work on the brows and gave them a thicker and voluminous appearance. It looked so good on Pony though. But when you have so little brows to work on, how can you do that? I tried emulating them but to no avail. If I stick to just trying to brush through my eyebrow hairs, there is pretty much no product that adheres to them.

The advantage with it is that it is long lasting. It does not fade that much if you sweat or stuff like that, unlike brow powders which fall out. It didn't lighten or colored my eyebrows. It looked as if I had dark hairs on a brown canvas.
Pros:
-Long lasting
-Portable
-Cheap
-Pigmented
Cons:
-Not appropriate for girls with dark hair
-More a brow tattoo than a mascara
-Chemical scent
-Not so practical brush
-Did not lighten my eyebrow color
Conclusion
In general, I'd say if you wanna go with decently dyed eyebrows, and if you were born with eyebrows (unlike me), I'd recommend it to you or if you have lighter hair color. But I'm not repurchasing that product again unless they introduce shades for dark hair for real. It's sad they have only light shades.
Anyways, how did you find my review? Which brow product should I try next time? Brow Tattoo (not a permanent one though o.O)? Etude House Tint my Brows Gel (that thing totally freaks me out O.O)? Kindly let me know in the comments section or on my social media. I'd be glad to know what you think.
Stay Beautiful and Sweet
