Anastasia Brow Wiz Medium Ash

ANASTASIA BROW WIZ IN MEDIUM ASH/ HOW TO FILL IN THICKER BROWS


After the first time I played around filling in my brows, now I can't ever go back.  But to be quite honest it does make a very big difference filling them in.  Remember your eye brows frame your face!


  (note:If you have very light hair, keep your brows 1-2 shades darker.  If you have darker hair your brows would look best 1-2 shades lighter.)

I have naturally thicker, dark brows.  However,  they are sparse so as of late I like to fill them in... I use to use the maybelline define a brow pencil because its very affordable but i found despite the color i bought they were way too warm for me  (had too much orange in them).

Anastasia Beverly Hills is a brand that caters specifically to brows.  They offer a wide range of colors, tones and different forms of powders, pencils etc etc.  I decided on the Brow wiz pencil because the pencil tip is very thin.  I just want to slightly fill them in and a thinner tip will give me the effect I am look for... if you have less eyebrows Anastasia offers a thicker pencil that will help you create and fill in your brows. 

Now before you check out the products with the link below just brace yourself because these products are a bit on the pricier side. But i'm telling you they are worth it... 

 I picked mine up from my favorite makeup store Sephora check it out here  ~~> brow wiz .  


Here is a quick tip! If you're not big into "makeup" that's ok... but just filling in your eyebrows, curling your lashes and adding a little color to your cheeks you will see how different you will look and others will notice too! 











I start by outlining the bottom following my natural arch first!  Then i use small flicking movements to fill in the rest where ever the hair is sparse.

I follow up with a clear gel to hold my brows in place.  ELF has a very nice clear gel you can use for about 2 or 3 US bucks.


see the difference!!!


medium ash

you can also use powder, but i prefer the pencil because its so much quicker and takes less steps.

Popbasic -Rubi Collection







So there was a time when i was subscribed to like a dozen different sample boxes/monthly subscriptions... i have like a million little samples now and it got way too pricey.   So i cancelled them all!  but one day i was on youtube and came upon this new subscription called popbasic.

Its a pretty cool new monthly subscription.  Its not exactly a monthly in the sense that you're tied into the box.  Instead you check out whats new every month and if you like it you buy it.  

They design "micro collections". Three pieces of clothing and/or accessories as a set for under $100 US dollars. They're all limited edition though.  Meaning once they sell out that's it finito, caput, its gone!  They also offer free worldwide shipping.  Um yeah sounds good to me.   Soooo i ordered October's Rubi collection!  One necklace, a leather belt and a grey dress.

I was really impressed with the quality of the dress.  The material is really heavy duty.  The belt is actually VERY nice leather and the necklace is a great ruby red costume piece.  I will say the necklace was a little scratchy. 

As far as sizing -im 5'4 and i wear a size 10 in US sizes.  I ordered a size large and it fit well just a little snug around my arms (because i have large arms jejeje).  If you look at the photos bellow it hit right by my knee.  Someone a size 12 can totally fit into the large as well. In this collection they offered sizes XS-XL.
