This base and brow trio could be the secret to mastering your everyday glam
The products
If there's two types of products that have the ability to make or break a face of makeup, they'd have to be what you use for your base and what you use on your brows.
Well, what if we told you we've found three buys (from the same brand, might we add) that will make locking in your ideal foundation finish and the feathery arches of your dreams extremely possible.
Let's start with the Maybelline New York Superstay 24H Hybrid Powder Foundation – a powder foundation perfect for all skin types, it's designed to deliver the soft-matte finish we're all craving during winter.
As for the Maybelline New York Express Brow Ultra Slim Defining Eyebrow Pencil and the Maybelline New York Tattoo Brow Up To 36H Styling Gel, they're the dynamic duo your brows will seriously thank you for. The former is a slim-tip brow pencil with a smooth-glide formula and a penchant for precision, and the latter is a shaping, sculpting brow gel that adds tint and fullness that'll last for the long haul.
The panel
Beauty Crew sent the Maybelline New York Superstay 24H Hybrid Powder Foundation, Maybelline New York Express Brow Ultra Slim Defining Eyebrow Pencil, and Maybelline New York Tattoo Brow Up To 36H Styling Gel to a panel of women aged 18 and older looking for the perfect base and brow products.
The lowdown
They got the job done quickly and easily: Whether it was the powder adding soft-matte coverage, the brow pencil dialling up fullness, or the brow gel providing a quality tint, all three products delivered on their claims while also being quick and easy to apply.
Results lasted for the long haul: Not only were the Review Crew members impressed with the quality of the products and the results they saw, but many specifically mentioned how long and well said results lasted, noting that the staying power was a great feature.
The affordable price point: The fact that the powder foundation, brow pencil, and brow gel all retail for under $30 while maintaining impressive quality across the board was a big bonus.
