so this is my penultimate top three thursdays post, and this time i'm focusing on drugstore brow products. up until about 18 months ago, i completely neglected my brows when it came to filling them in, and when i first started i instantly went for products which were made for brunette hair (obviously, i'm brunette!), but looking back now they were much too dark for me, so i thought i'd share the three drugstore products and colours i've found that work for me.

first up is the cheapest of the bunch with the MUA Pro Brow Kit for £3.50 and this is the first brow product i started using. initially i went straight in with the darkest shade in the palette which is clearly far too dark for a natural look, so i've found that a mix of this shade and the top right shade is the perfect combo for brunette brows. this is super good value for money as you get three shades which you can combine to create the perfect shade, and then a setting gel to help keep everything in place. i do find that the little brush is a tad too thick for your outer brows so a thinner brush works better for that, but the tweezers are pretty good considering they're thrown in too. this also comes with a pretty decent sized mirror (perfect for travelling), and the staying power is pretty good for the price, especially for such a bargain price. this would be great for brow beginners or anyone who is after something on a budget. this is also a fairly decent dupe of the Benefit Brow Zings.

next up is the L'Oreal Super Liner Brow Artist which comes in at £5.49. this comes in three shades - blonde, brunette and dark brunette - but again, i found the brunette shades were just too dark and bold for me so i have this in the shade blonde, and this is the product i use the most often so will be what you see i most of my pictures. as you can see, this is a dual-ended pencil with the colour on one end and a setting wax on the other which makes sure your brows stay put all day long! it also comes with this little brush on the lid which is perfect for sculpting your brows into the perfect shape before filling them in, and as you can see from the pictures this is very well loved! 

finally is my latest brow addition which is the Soap & Glory Brow Archery Tint and Pencil. this is the most expensive product at £10, but definitely worth it. again, i have this in the shade for blondes! this is another dual ended pencil and has the tiny, little brush at one and to add tint and shape to your brows, and then the pencil the other end to keep the tint in place and add colour and definition. i thought the brush end might have a tendency to dry out quickly especially as i do my brows after my foundation, but it's still as good as new and the colour pay-off is still fab! the pencil end is also a wind-up, so there's no faffing around with having to keep it sharpened all the time. the one downside is that it doesn't come with a brush/comb to help shape your brows before application which i think it could for the price, but i'm sure you all have a spare one lying around somewhere!

if anyone of you have recommendations on other brow products that you think i need to try, then please let me know!
