    Love this pencil! I’ve been using name brand for years and this does the same trick! I do wish the pencil was a bit more thing (dulls down when used, obviously) but if it were more thing, I know I wouldn’t be getting as much product. This is AMAZINg for the price! My new go to, amazing for travel.

    Precision application

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this e.l.f. Cosmetics Instant Lift Brow Pencil complimentary from Influenster in exchange for my honest review. This brow pencil was easy to apply and I was able to fill in my brows with precision. My brows looked full and well-groomed and did not look or feel heavy. The overall look was natural. I would recommend and repurchase this brow pencil

    Must have!

    I’ve bought probably 30 of these brow pencils upon discovering them and how well they work. love that they are affordable enough to keep in multiple bags or areas (car, work, purse, travel etc) and they really perform amazingly well! However they do run out rather fast so i suggest purchasing two if you’re in need of brows on your face everyday like me

    Don't recommend.

    Poor quality, pencil breaks before finished

    I routinely purchase the "Blonde" shade as it's a perfect match to my natural brow color. I have fine hair and brows, so like that this product gives my brows a slightly thicker look in sparse areas and blends out well. However, I've rarely been able to use all of the product up in the pencil, because no matter how gently I've unwrapped the pencil or applied it, the product stick is very thin and easily breaks. I've broken one just removing the cap for the first time, and multiple times during application. I don't like the other elf product that draws wet lines, so probably need to find another brand at this point.

    Natural looking

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my absolute favorite everyday brow pencil. The creamy formula glides on easily without tugging, and it's incredibly easy to blend out with the spoolie for a soft, natural look. Because it has a slightly thicker tip, it fills in sparse areas super quickly when I'm in a rush. It might not be for hyper-detailed hair strokes, but for a fast, effortless, natural brow that lasts all day, you cannot beat the price. Total holy grail!

    Amazon formula, long lasting, and super easy to apply!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The brow pencil is a game changer! The texture is perfect, allowing for a very smooth application that looks incredibly natural. I love the formula because it feels lightweight but has amazing durability, lasting all day long without fading. The spoolie on the other end is great for blending it all together. Highly recommend if you want great brows on a budget.
