New Maybelline Fashion Brow Duo Shaper Brown & Grey Review, Swatches, Price & Buy Online India
Time to get your brows on fleek with the latest launch by Maybelline– their New Fashion Brow Duo Shaper! Finally, a product that has genuinely gotten me all excited! The Indian market seriously lacks some good brow grooming products and this eyebrow pencil + powder by Maybelline could very well fill this void. No amount of good eyemakeup skills can make your eyes look amazing unless you fill in your brows. I have seen such beautiful smokey eye makeup look bad due to unfilled brows. So read on to know if this brow shaper is a hit or miss 🙂
Price: Rs 245
Maybelline Brow Duo Shaper is available in 2 shades in India: Brown & Grey
Product Description
Get naturally-defined, fuller eyebrows with Maybelline’s Fashion Brow Duo Shaper, without threading, trimming or plucking your eyebrows! Our first ever 2-in-1 brow liner comes with a slim pencil tip to shape your brows and a powder tip for a soft finish. Pencil shapes, powder finishes, 2 steps to wow!
Packaging
The Maybelline Fashion Brow Shaper Duo comes as a sleek black plastic packaging with color coded caps. One end has the retractable slim pencil while the other has a sponge applicator which applies the brow powder. The brow powder side has a screw on cap which twists the applicator and make the product come on top to use. I need to close the cap and then screw it open again per brow. I know, a little confusing but I hope you got what I mean :p
Now if you’re wondering how to use a brow pencil and powder together since usually we only see eyebrow pencils and spoolies being sold in India then let me tell you how 😀 You basically need to outline your eyebrow with the pencil with soft and small strokes, then fill them in with the powder.
Texture & Pigmentation
The pencil does feel a bit dry but I prefer this texture as creamy eyebrow pencils only stick to the hair and look so stark. The pigmentation is sheer making it perfect for beginners as I know the major issue I always used to face with filling in my brows was going too overboard. I always prefer building it up as I go rather than using a highly pigmented product for my brows.
The Maybelline Brow Shaper has a very slim pencil which reminds me of the much raved about Anastasia Brow Wiz. This really helps in controlling the shape and helps define your brows much better. The sponge applicator is soft and pointed which is just the perfect shape for filling in your eyebrows and defining your arch.

Shades
The new Maybelline Brow Duo comes in 2 shades- Grey & Brown. At first when I heard they launched a grey pencil instead of black, I was so amused. Afterall, who needs a grey eyepencil for black brows, DUH! However, the grey is a light black shade which is perfect for those with dark eyebrows. The brown on the other hand is dark brown in color perfect for people like me who have light brows and have colored their hair. Filling in my brows with black eyeshadow looks too stark after I got Balayage Hair Coloring done and the Maybelline Brow Duo Shaper in Brown is just PERFECT for me!
The Maybelline Fashion Brow Duo Shaper lasts throughout the day, though I haven’t tested it out for 12 hours. I went out, sweat like a pig in this humid weather and it stayed put so the wear time is really good hence no complaints in this department!

1) Some might feel the pencil is a bit too dry but personally I do not like creamy brow pencils hence this isn’t an issue with me
HBM Rating
HBM Recommendation: Maybelline Fashion Brow Duo Shaper is the best eyebrow pencil/ defining product in India. The slim pencil helps in defining the eyebrows easily and the powder is perfect for filling them in. They are not too pigmented hence you are less likely to end up with stark eyebrows. The shades grey and brown would suit the Indian skin tone well and the stay power is pretty amazing. This has become my HG brow product and I highly recommend it.

Hey lisha I have black hair n black brows but they are quite sparse.. Which color would suit me ? Brown or grey?
Hey Neelam, If you have sparse brows like mine then brown would work well for you.
However, if your brows are quite dark in shade then I suggest you opt for grey!
Thankyou so much:-*
