2+1 for Brows from Paula Dorf Cosmetics

**Disclaimer: I have received products to try from Paula Dorf Cosmetics via BrandBacker & am simply sharing my personal opinion which may vary from yours. I was not compensated for this review.


I'm not a fan of having my picture taken, but when I do, someone always says it - "Where did your eyebrows go?". I never really paid attention to them before, aside from tweezing them. But as my hair is getting darker, my eyebrows seem to be disappearing. At least in pictures. 


When I had the opportunity to try 2+1 for Brows from Paula Dorf Cosmetics, I was both incredibly nervous & excited. The last thing I wanted was to end up on one of those eyebrow fail memes floating around the interwebz. But the thought of trying something different quickly won over. 


I opted for the neutral shade since I'm not quite a blonde anymore, but not a brunette yet either (and definitely not red.) To me, the shades looked a little dark, but palettes always look dark to me. So I took a deep breath, said a little prayer that I wouldn't make myself look like Bobo the clown, dipped the Paula Dorf Brow Brush into the powder colors & then the wax, then carefully applied it to my brow. 


I was amazed at two things. One, it was seriously simple to apply even though I had never done it before. And second, it looked great! The color is just slightly darker, which is noticeable in pictures, but not that far off to the naked eye. I had the hubs take a picture with just one brow to show you. (Sorry for the filter, I forgot about what time it would start getting dark after daylight savings ended & the hubs comes home right around the same time. And I'm awful at selfies. And please overlook the huge bags.)

My brow color lasted for the rest of the day too (& would most likely last all day had I applied it first thing in the morning). Better yet that it came off easily with my regular makeup remover.

  6. I cannot for the life of me use anything but anastasia brow whiz for my eyebrows, and even then I fill them in 1-2x/year! Lol. I have full eyebrows but they're definitely not twins, or even sister. Maybe cousins :)

  20. I have the darkest and fullest eyebrows in town! I have to tame mine. I guess none of us can have the perfect brow. It's either too light, too dark or crazy looking.
