Review | Benefit Gimme Brow

This post has been a long time coming now, I got Benefit's Gimme Brow not long after it came out but I've been so tied up in cramming for my exams that I haven't had a chance to blog about anything for over a month now! However, my exams are finally finished and until I find a job I have way more time on my hands than I currently know what to do with, so I am finally reviewing my new favourite brow product.



Benefit Gimme Brow is a brush on fibre brow gel that's very easy to apply. I've fairly messy eyebrows without any product after I got them threaded too thin a while back and they still haven't quite recovered. Despite being a gel rather than a powder or pencil Gimme Brow still provides great coverage on sparser areas of brow. 
I sweep with brush backwards through my brows first to catch and coat more hairs, even shorter or finer ones (thank you QVC for that little tip) and then back through the opposite way to shape my brows. The brow gel allows brow hairs to be easily shaped to give neat natural looking brows that are set in place all day, great for everyday, even on no make-up days it's great for adding a little definition to eyebrows.
If you're going out or prefer a more defined brow to a natural one you can use a brow pallete (I like Benefit Brow Zings, it was my go-to product everyday before Gimme Brow was released) and add Gimme Brow over the top to add extra definition and set your brows in place. If your eyebrows are naturally full already, Gimme Brow would be a perfect product to sweep on and set brows for groomed eyebrows all day.
Gimme Brow comes in two shades, light/medium and medium/deep. As I'm naturally blonde I use light/medium, I'd recommend this shade for anyone whose natural hair colour is anything from blonde to light brown. 
Have you tried Gimme Brow? What are your thoughts?
