Beauty | Soap & Glory Archery 2-in-1 Brow Filling Pencil and Brush in Blondeshell Review

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

How are you all?

Hope you're having a great day! (≧∇≦)キャー♪

Don't know why I'm feeling especially chipper today, but I'm just gonna roll with it ahahaha. Here's my review of the Soap & Glory Archery 2-in-1 Brow Filling Pencil and Brush! Just realised that 5 out of the 6 products from my little Boots haul are Soap & Glory ahahaa, some of which I didn't even need, when I actually have a few items I really, really, really need to re-purchase ahahaha!

Apologies for the photos of my face, I'd literally just woken up and scraped my hair back, I was still in my pjs ahaha.

My eyebrows are the bane of my life ahaha, especially my left one as it just refuses to grow in properly, or correctly. Honestly, I have such difficulty with them, they take the longest to do out of my entire makeup routine, and I actually dread doing them. They're never right, and as they're so pale and sparse (lookin' at you, lefty), it's also easy to overdo them, or make them look just super unnatural and fake. The fake look usually occurs when old lefty is so sparse, that I'm literally drawing on skin rather than brow to make it vaguely match the right one  (;¬д¬)

This Soap & Glory Archery Brow Pencil is literally the best option I've ever tried! It's become my Holy Grail brow pencil, as every other one I've ever tried has, according to my boyfriend, made me look like Groucho Marx (cheers bae). However, I do agree to a certain extent, as both my skintone and eyebrow colour is very pale, plus with blonde hair other brow pencils I've tried just look way, way too harsh and dark on my face. Therefore, I'm sure you can guess that I was pretty over the moon to find this Blondeshell Archery pencil by Soap & Glory!

This is my second repurchase of the pencil, and I can tell you right now it won't be my last! I feel as though it looks natural with my (unnatural) hair colour and skintone, and my eyebrows never look overdone or too dark. I'd really recommend it to those of you who are of the blonde or pale disposition σ(゚ー^*)

Beauty | Waterproof Eyebrow Pencil in Brown by Hope Girl Review (Korean Cosmetics)

Hello, lovelies! Like many of you, I fell victim to overplucking my eyebrows when I was a teenager. Anddd now they've made it quite clear that they don't want to grow back (,,#゚Д゚)

So, I've given up on having lovely non-overplucked brows, and instead am content with just filling them in slightly, to give them more thickness, shape, definition, and also colour. Part of me feels as if it's pointless to have my natural brows grow back in, as they're quite pale and I'd probably still use a pencil or shadow to give them some life, but I digress.

At the end of the day, all I want in life is a decent eyebrow pencil, which is why I was ever so chuffed I received a full size Hope Girl waterproof eyebrow pencil in my Memebox! ヽ(*⌒∇⌒*)ノ


This pencil is such a gorgeous colour! I'm just really sad that it's way, wayyy~ too dark for me. My skin tone is ghostly, and my hair's a dyed blonde/gold/orange (depending on whether I've been to the hairdressers recently or not ahahaha), so sadly when I use this on my brows they tend to be a touch too dark to look even slightly natural, as you can see above. However, with the aid of an angled eyeshadow brush I'm able to soften the colour a little, and make them less harsh, but still too harsh for me (○゚ε^○)

However! This pencil is really nice to use, plus I think the packaging perfectly balances cute and tacky ahahaha. Also, it came with it's own sharpener, which is a little bonus haha.

All in all, I do really like it! Have you tried any Hope Girl products? Let me know in the comments below ヾ(´▽`*;)ゝ”
