Illamasqua Eyebrow Cake in Thunder | Review



(sorry about the odd pictures! I'm saving up to get a better camera)


Oh Lily Collins, what I'd give to have your brows. Unfortunately, like many others, I have got full on brow envy, and have searched far and wide trying to find something to give me some Lily styled brows.

I finally settled on a technique I like which includes a pencil, powder and setting gel. I may do a small tutorial on how I do them on a later date, but for now, I'm doing to tell you about my powder of choice, The beautiful Illamasqua Eyebrow Cake in Thunder, Ironically it's thundering right now as I'm writing this.

The Powder is a dark/mid tone brown, with a slight wax mixed into it, not to the point where you can see or feel it, but it just helps the powder stick to the brows and not budge. It has a very smooth texture which goes on like a dream, I use a small angled brush to just lightly fill in my brows with the powder, but it can be built up to create a very bold, yet still relatively natural look, because Bold brows obviously can't look completely natural!

I do really like this powder, and I usually use the MUA clear mascara to set them, but it really doesn't do much, so still looking for a setting gel!

For £15.50 it is a bit expensive, but definitely worth it! I 110% recommend giving this a try, and it comes in different colours for blonde to black brows, so there's a colour for everyone!
You can buy it from their website, or places like Debenhams.

Speak soon!
