MAC Brow Set: Bert-like Brows Begone!

When I received a sample of MAC Brow Set (along with some other samples from their new-ish All Ages, All Races, All Sexes collection), I immediately dismissed it. You see, my eyebrows have remained unchanged since I came out of the womb. They're sparse and almost non-existent (think Ernie from Sesame Street), and attempts to fatten them up with anything more than a pencil has yielded Bert-like brows.

But, to my surprise, Brow Set in Mink shaded and shaped my brows into better (and believable) versions of themselves. I mean, if I was a stranger who didn't know any better, I would have thought that Audrey Hepburn brows just naturally grow out of my forehead.



Besides Mink (dirty brown), Brow Set is also available in Show-off (rich brown), Beguile (full-bodied taupe), Girl Boy (fawn-blonde), and Clear. If you've got brows with severe behavioral problems, I wouldn't recommend this product; the hold is flexible, and the look subtle. Brow Set can also be used on lashes.
