Maybelline Brow Drama Review

Hey Guys!! Today I am going to be doing another product review for you all. As always, I am not an expert, this is just my opinion from my experience with the product. I am also not sponsored.

I purchased this product a while back when I first saw the commercial for it on TV and I have waited so long to do the review because I really wanted to give it some time before I voiced my opinion. This product comes in three different shades, I purchased Deep Brown (which I believe is the darkest shade). I have always used Maybelline brow powder so I was interested to see if I would like another one of their products.
At first, I was not a fan. I felt that it was just like a brow gel with a tiny bit of color. However, I watched the commercial again and realized that I was applying it wrong. You really do have to back-comb your brow with the product to distribute it among your brow. Then you comb it like normal to smooth it out and shape it. Once I started using the product correctly, I started to like it a lot better.
If you are looking for a natural, everyday look, then I totally think that this product stands alone as a great affordable option. However, if you like a darker more defined brow, then I recommend using a powder first and then applying the Brow Drama like a gel to set your brows. The Brow Drama does an excellent job of holding your eyebrows in place all day. Personally, I always have a problem with crazy brows, and this product has worked the best for me as far as holding them down is concerned compared to other brow gels that I have tried.
The best part about the Brow Drama, like I said, is its lasting power and ability to keep those brows in place. This product is an amazing option if you are running late and only have time to apply a little makeup. You really do not need to think if your just going to comb your brows into place with it, and it will give you more color than just combing them out and not applying product. Therefore, it is great for those late or lazy days, or for those days where you want to enhance some of your features but not wear a full face of makeup.
Although I love having this product in my collection and am DEFF repurchasing it, it does have some draw-backs. The Brow Drama is very hard to remove. Just wiping your eyebrows with a makeup wipe does not get it all off. This is kind of a trade off for having outstanding lasting power, but you just need to make sure you really scrub your brows at night so that there is no leftover product the next day. Buildup of this product shows and makes your eyebrows look like they need a bath. Personally, I think it is worth having to take the extra time to remove the product since when you put it on, you know that your brows stay in place all day. For me, this product is a bit sheer, but I still use it everyday either over top of my Maybelline brow powder, or just by itself with two coats.
This product is build able, which is good considering it is a bit sheer. Be careful when applying it the correct way, sometimes I find myself accidentally getting product on my eyeshadow or primer when I back-comb. To avoid this, I would recommend doing your prows first if you are going to be using this  product.
Overall, I do think that the Maybelline Brow Drama is an important and useful product to add to your collection. It is not that expensive and can be found at any local drug store, food store or Target. I am overall happy with the product despite taking some time to warm up to it. I know I will be repurchasing!

Best Fit: How to Start Your Fitness Journey

"Best Fit" Let's start our fitness journey! Incorporating fitness into your daily life is difficult. Life is full of wonderful things to do and it can be hard to prioritize being healthy.

Pick a time of day for your workout: Picking a time of day is a great first step in starting a healthier lifestyle.

Project Runway 10-15-15 Recap Review

Previously on Project Runway: The designers gave members of the Project Runway crew a makeover. Hey guys! Welcome to this week's Project Runway Recap Review! We are getting closer and closer to fashion week each episode and the competition is getting tight. At this point, any of the designers could go home. Last week was packed with drama...but...its a new week, and a fresh slate, so lets get started. Challenge: The five remaining designers will make an outfit inspired by the New York City bridges (Queensborough, Brooklyn, Manhattan). The designers were assigned a bridge from the black bag of doom. Each designer created a textile with a 3-D printer that they had to incorporate into their garment. This is an Avant Garde challenge. Thoughts In The Workroom:  I'm not so sure what I think about 3-D printers...comment down below and let me know what you think about them (in general, not just in fashion). Candice made a good choice not using black again this week. Designers who
