K-Palette 1 Day Tattoo Real Lasting Eyebrow Liner in 02 Grayish Brown

Holy. Grail. I've tried countless products on my eyebrows including powders, pencils, crayons, mascaras and this is by far my favorite. I love the way it makes my eyebrows look, how it's versatile, how it suits the color of my brow hair perfectly, easy to use and of course the lasting power of this liner. Powders, pencils and crayons just don't do a good job on staying on my eyebrows, they always end up fading away. This liner doesn't budge at all and I don't have to worry about touching up. I don't know what I'd do without this and I don't think I'll find anything better. At least for a VERY long time until K-Palette decides to make a better updated version but I can't seem to find anything they'd wanna change about it, but until that day comes I'll keep repurchasing
This product comes in two shades, 01 (lighter brown version) and 02 (a dark brown suitable for women with dark hair like me). They also have a different version called the 2Way Eyebrow, which has the point tip on one end of the product, and a sponge tip applicator with powder on the other end. I prefer the point tip, since I don't like the way powdery eyebrows look because they look more unnatural to me. Which is why I decided to get the version with only the point tip since I assumed there will be more product of the liner.
Just like other liquid liners, it is important how you decide to store this. Storing it in an upright position may cause the color to become lighter. The best way to store this is by laying it on its side. It is important to also make sure the lid is securely closed when not being used, to prevent the point tip from drying up faster. 
The soft point tip end is very thin (literally a strand of hair I'm not even kidding) making it possible to mimic a strand of brow hair. For days when I want a natural or no makeup look, I'll use a very light hand (imagine trying to only stroke your brow hair instead of the skin underneath) while holding the product by it's middle to apply this, only using the very tip of the liner and using feathery stroked to create hair-like looking strands. It may take a bit of practice to perfect but trust me it's worth learning! For days or nights when I want a bolder look, I do the same but with a heavier hand and going over it a few times.
The pigmentation is quite faded which makes using this perfect, because it manages to give a natural look while still having the option to build it up and make a bolder looking brow. The tip is so thin that it can even go on a lot thinner than the thinnest swatch seen above.

Comments / More Information:
- "Brow and lash grooming salon" Aside from brows and lashes they also thread other areas like the upper lip, fingers, forehead, sideburns, etc
- Paying PHP 580 to thread your eyebrows may seem a little too much since there are other places where you can get them done at a much cheaper price, but keep in mind that this is the best place to get them done since they really specialize in this
- I've gotten my brows threaded in salons before and my skin around my brow area would get really irritated. This is because they don't clean it before and after threading. You basically sit down, get your eyebrows threaded, and you're done. I also observed that the process is more painful 
- In Browhaus, they have a reclinable chair where you can lay down comfortably. They'll ask for your opinion and how you like them done. Before they thread they'll clean your eyebrow area and after they'll clean it again and put a special cream. They'll also show you what it looks like in the mirror after. They also trim your brows if the hair is too long, which they don't do in salons
- Don't wet / put make up on your brows for the next 4 - 5 hours
- One of their services called Brow Resurrection can fix over plucked eyebrows, naturally short and thin eyebrows, naturally patchy eyebrows and more
- Check out their website for their list of services, prices, aftercare, before and after photos (you'll see the huge difference that good eyebrows and lashes can make, no kidding), and more
- I also like how they cover your legs up with a scarf if you're wearing a skirt or shorts
- If you have the Belle de Jour Lifestyle Card, make sure to present it to them for a discount
- I recommend Emily for eyebrow threading!
