‘Old hippie chick’ in her 60s raves about $3 drugstore pencil that fixed her thinned-out eyebrows after menopause
IN the era of thick bushy brows, a budget beauty buy from Amazon is said to achieve the perfect look.
Amazon shoppers shared rave reviews for the makeup item, with one woman praising its transformative ability.
The affordable product has received an average rating of 4.5 stars out of five from over 46,000 shoppers.
Elf’s Instant Brow Lift Pencil is currently available for $3 and in five shades.
The dual-sided cosmetic item features a pencil on one end and a brow brush on the other.
According to Elf, it is designed to define, fill, contour, comb, and tame eyebrows.
The brand recommends brushing your brows into your desired shape and using the liner to fill in the gaps with fine small strokes.
One shopper praised the product for transforming her post-menopause eyebrows.
“I am in my early 60s and have never liked or worn makeup, but in the winter my pale skin can look very washed-out and my brows have thinned after menopause,” she wrote.
The woman, who described herself as “an old hippie chick,” said she was hesitant to try the product but was glad she did.
“I just got this and tried it out and was very impressed – it is such a subtle sheer tint that nobody would ever know I am wearing makeup but it makes a difference,” she said.
Other impressed buyers shared their thoughts on the beauty product in the review section.
“Great color for my blond, silver, and white hair match!” said another person.
“[It] blends my sparse brow hairs well on the half arch to the tail and I love the brush that has its’ own cap on the opposite end of the crayon stick with its’ own cap cover.
“Great price, and I’ll use it for a while before I comment on how long it lasts and if it’s smudge-proof. So far, I am very pleased!”
Another shopper praised the product for its budget-friendly price point.
“I deal with trichotillomania so I use eyebrow pencils daily and go through them fast, so I like these a lot since they’re only $3,” they wrote.
“I don’t feel guilty rebuying one every few months.”
“I see why this line excels as a competitor to the pricier luxury lines. You need not be wealthy or take out a loan to look beautiful and well put together,” pointed out another person.
“For only $3, this pencil works well and is worth it,” commented one buyer.
I” like the ease of use- you don’t have to press hard for the product to define your brows.
“It wears well and the color is good. I am naturally blonde so I could wear blonde, taupe, or even light brown. Not too dark and very natural.”
