Delivering ultra-precise, hair-like strokes that leave a natural finish, the Maybelline Build A Brow is the perfect way add some oomph to sparse-looking brows.
In fact, the brand describe the hard-working pen as leaving you with brows that ‘look so real you can’t tell it’s makeup’, leaving you with perfectly formed brows that look utterly natural.
Designed to stay in place all day, the two-in-one pen and brow setter ensure zero smudging, flaking or fading for stronger, fuller brows that last all day.
Take your pick from six natural shades to suit every brow type, from Blonde to Black Brown, warm toned to cool.
My eyebrow hairs are blonde, so I dye them every few weeks or so with the Eylure Dybrow, which keeps them full and pigmented.

However, as the dye starts to wear out, I often need to fill in a few gaps and add shape to my brows to keep them looking full and fluffy. The ‘microblading’ design of the Maybelline Build A Brow gave me hope that this step could be made utterly quick and simple. And it did.
I used the shade Soft Brown, and not only did it fill in any areas of sparseness within my brows with thin, precise lines, but it also added natural-looking shape and definition, too, while looking like I wasn’t wearing anything on them at all.
And the clear gel? I was in shock at how well the gel blended the pigment into my hairs and kept them in place all day without any crispy crunchiness whatsoever. Seriously impressed.
And the best part, the clever two in one pen comes in at under £10. An absolute steal.
