Recently I have been a lot more interested in finding a product that will make my brows more structured and even whilst still looking natural. I was pretty happy with the product I was using previously (Maybelline Master Shape Brow Pencil) however it was still quite noticeable to me that the colour was just a bit off; as it always is with blonde brow products! So I thought I would venture out of my comfort zone and look for new formulas in order to satisfy my brow needs.
I've heard a lot about Freedom makeup recently and when I saw that they were bringing out a brow pomade -hailed to be a dupe for the Anastasia Dipbrow- I thought I would try it out as well as their brow powder duo. They were both inexpensive considering other offerings on the market at £5 for the pomade and £4 for the powder (it's on offer for £3 right now) and after a little research about how the colourings were irl I decided on the shade Blonde for both.
As it turns out they're pretty good matches colour-wise. The pomade is darker and great for a strong brow look, I think this has to be applied lightly with soft strokes, else it can look very fake and a bit too dark for my preference, however it's great to have as a part of my collection. I will say that this stuff has great staying power, so no concerns about it not lasting. The swatch on my hand was still there at the end of the day!
My favourite of the two is definitely the powder; I only use one of two shades as the right is slightly to warm toned for my hair colour, however the left shade is the perfect ashy tone. I use an angled brush just to lightly fill in my brows where they're sparse and lack shape and it looks so much more natural than a pencil. I love that I can easily achieve different intensities with this product, depending on my mood, just by adding a bit more product and it still doesn't look overly fake. I would say it lasts for most of the day, still keeping it's shape, however there is some loss of definition. I just use a small bit of brow gel to keep them in place and it's great to go.
I would really recommend these products for the price and quality!

I don't know much about this brand but any good dupe for Anastasia is good enough for me! X
