Heyyy Girls!!!
A quick review of this amazing pencil which I've seen my mother use forever and now I depend on it too for filling in and shaping my brows!

  • Water-resistant formula ensures no smudging or smearing.
  • Easy to sharpen and use 
Lakme Eyebrow Pencil comes in an intense black shade. It Darkens, defines the eyebrow for the complete look. It is Water-resistant formula that ensures no smudging or smearing and easy to sharpen and use."
Price : INR 30

Lakme Eyebrow Pencil is a tiny sleek pencil just like the regular stationery one's. It comes sealed in a plastic wrapper that needs to be torn open for use. The pencil has a plastic cap and a dark black pigment. You can sharpen this pencil using either a regular pencil sharpner or even a razor.

Application :
I prefer to keep my Eyebrow pencil kind of blunt as it helps in controlling the excessive lines that may appear from a well sharpened tip. As the lead pigment is dark, use it carefully, simply to fill in any gaps or points in your brow which need to look fuller. In case you end up making your brows way to dark, wipe them with a cleansing tissue. I also blend this pencil well using my finger to make the look more natural. Use this pencil once your foundation is set for best results. 


 
Pro's of Lakme Eyebrow Pencil :
  • Inexpensive
  • Easily available at local cosmetic stores
  • Dark, well pigmented lead
  • Does not need to be sharpened frequently making it last longer
  • Gives a natural look
Con's of Lakme Eyebrow Pencil : 
  • Needs to be used carefully, with a light hand and small strokes to avoid excessively dark eyebrows
  • Packaging could be improved and made to look more stylish
  • Given its size, is easily misplaced
To Splurge or Not to Splurge :
Lakme's Eyebrow Pencil is a must have for every girl given it helps you shape and fill in your brows especially if your beautician has gone all out on them at your last threading appointment. Also otherwise, it is a great option over eyebrow powder which have minimal presence restricted to high street make up brands in the Indian cosmetic market and hence are not easily accessible to all.

Final Verdict :
Lakme's Eyebrow Pencil gets a 3.5/5 from me!
