Anastasia Beverly Hills - DIPBROW Pomade

LOVE this brow pomade! A little goes a long way. With very light strokes, it goes on with the perfect amount of darkness/lightness. I’m of Chinese descent and the Ash Brown shade is exactly what I was looking for.Previously, I was using Etude House #2 Gray Brown, which I also love, but it doesn’t have great staying power. This Dipbrow Pomade mostly stays on even after swimming and surfing!

At first I was concerned because in the pod once you open it, it appears to have a very prominent grayish hue hence 'ash' brown. However, once I applied the pomade, it was beautiful. No grayish shade or tint. It was a perfect match for my hair and eyebrows. It isn't a bright brown or dark brown. It is somewhere right in the middle. If brown tends to be too bright for you and a dark brown is too dark, this is the perfect shade. It blends smoothly and is absolutely smudge proof once it sets. Long lasting doesn't do it justice. At the end of the day, my brows are flawless and don't look drawn or caked on. You can make it as dark or as light and natural as you'd like, either way this product is worth every cent. It technically is "waterproof" which is great, but even if you don't use makeup remover, your normal face wash will work just as well removing the product. It comes off without any problems. I highly recommend it this product over anything I've ever used. It looks beautiful and just overall an amazing product. I don't know how I ever got by without it.

I ike everything about it: the texture, the longevity, the wide range of colors, and the ease of appication,

Quality pomade but too dark so took a star off

I am a chronic over-plucker, so when I want to wear makeup, I have to fill in what little eyebrow I have left. I am also a makeup noob. I was able to try this initially because I somehow ended up with one of those usually-useless testers from some makeup store. The trial pack came with four colors, and Ash Brown was the first one I tried. I really liked how much easier it was to blend than the eyebrow pencil I was using at the time, but I wasn't totally sold on shelling out $18 for it yet. This product goes on easily, and allows you to be able to do dark & defined in areas where you want it (for me on the outer edge/top & bottom outline), as well as soft & subtle in places where you want that (again, for me that is the middle and inner edges.) Long story short, I used that pathetic little 1 cm sample size as much as I could, with the accompanying pathetically small trial brush, until the sample dried out because there's no real way to keep it sealed once you open it. I decided before paying for the full size I would make sure this was the right color and sampled the Dark Brown. That was a total mistake for me. Even though I'm a pretty tanned Korean with black hair, it was like "PSSST, LOOK AT MY EYEBROWS, THEY'RE DRAWN ON!!!!" So, while I am in no way hating on Dark Brown for existing, as I'm sure it works for some people, what I *am* saying is try and get your hands on a sample and try the colors first. No one wants to be out almost $20 for crazy brows. I have a bad habit of wiping my eyes/forehead/eyebrows, and so far this has done a good job of staying put and not smearing all over my face. I will be the first to admit, I'm not super pro when it comes to makeup, but from a lazy/sometimes makeup-wearer, all I need is once a day and I'm set. It also removes easily, which I appreciate. Would recommend.

This pomade is a game changer for brows. It stays put all day and gives me the precise, defined look I want. Plus, a little goes a long way, so it feels worth the investment. Totally five stars!

Good pomade, expensive though. I wish they had a color inbetween ash brown and soft brown.

This is my second time purchasing the pomade by Anastasia, but this time I ordered a different color. I love the pomade because it stays put and looks very natural. It is also very versatile as you can do a more bold brow or something lighter. It lasts FOREVER because it hardly takes any product to achieve a full, filled in brow.I have tan skin, jet black hair and very dark brows. At first, I used the Ebony. It was a little too chocolatey brown for my coloring. This time, I ordered the ash brown. In my opinion, it looks a little less harsh and is a very good neutral for black hair without looking like I used a sharpie to fill in my eyebrows.I have gone to the gym as well as slept with this pomade on and it has stayed put. It doesn't drip AT ALL when you wash it off (the way eyeliner or mascara does) or get in the pool. I ordered it on amazon this time because I had a gift certificate, but I matched myself with the ash brown at my local Ulta prior to. This is a much better value and product than the brow pencil Anastasia offers, IMO, which lasted me only a month. I use a no name brand flat angled brush from Rite Aid and it works perfectly. Also, this works great as a subtle eyeliner. I swear by this product.
