I had my eyes on Benefit High Brow as well as the Anastasia Go Brow, which are both products to shape your eyebrows. Arch de Triumph is most like Go Brow because they’re both duo-ended with a brow pencil at one end, and highlighter at the other. The only difference is Arch de Triumph is about 1/3 the price of Go Brow at a nice price of £5 (on sale) and £7.50 (regular price), also sells for $9.99 USD at Target.
What it claims (from boots.com):
Beauty Bible Award Winner Soap & Glory Arch De Triump is a two-step shaping and highlighting crayon for instantly BEAUTIFUL EYEBROWS.IT SHAPES! IT SHIFTS! IT LIFTS!
My thoughts:
I really love this. I had originally expected the pencil side of it to be very hard, like an actual pencil, but it is actually very smooth, soft and easy to blend. The colour is perfect for me, and looks to be universally flattering similar to Dior’s new eyebrow pencil. You can easy control how heavy you want the colour by blending it, and you don’t need a powder to fill in the spaces as this is soft enough to do that too.
The highlighter is also super soft and delivers just enough colour to give a good payoff, but not too shimmery or light. It is also very easily blendable, so you can control the amount of colour. Apart from highlighting the brow bone, you can also use it on your cupids bow, which is a good plus.
I would recommend this to everyone. Because it is so easy to use, a beginner can use this without trouble. It also comes with three eyebrow stencils for beginners to shape their brows and instructions on how to use them. For £5, the value is really there, and much better than the Anna Sui brow powder that I had previously purchased for $23+tax. I think I will buy a few back-ups before I leave the UK because it really is that good.
My score? ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
