Four eyebrow products that promise to survive Hong Kong’s humidity
Benefit offers a three-step path to eyebrow perfection for the time-rich, while 3CE’s pencil and cushion is great for sparse brows
Survive the Hong Kong humidity with Anastasia Beverly Hills’ Dipbrow Gel (HK$150). Available in six colours, this game-changing product has a waterproof formula that ensures your brows will not budge or melt. Its instant intensity, however, requires a light hand during application.
Those with time to take over their make-up might be interested in Benefit’s The Great Brow Basics (HK$345). Step one, create realistic-looking hair with tiny strokes using the Precisely My Brow pencil. Step two, build colour with the Goof Proof brow pencil. Step three, keep everything in place with the Gimme Brow volumising fibre gel – and you’re done!
Waste no time with 3CE’s Brow Pencil & Cushion (HK$139), which is great for those with thinning or sparse brows. Draw an outline of the desired shape of your brows with the pencil, then fill in the space with the cream powder cushion on the other end. It can also be used along the hairline to fix uneven or receding hairlines.
You’ve heard of cushion foundation but what about the same for eyebrows? Laneige Eyebrow Cushion-cara (HK$195) makes it easy to control the amount of product you pick up. And with two shades in one compact, you can mix to create the right hue for your brows. The finish, however, is slightly wet and not as long lasting as we would like.
