REVIEW: Bobbie Cosmetics retractable eyebrow pencil

A girl can never have enough eyebrow products. I myself am always looking for new products that could possibly be of holy grail status. I have a few favorites but I dont think I found "the one". I first heard of this brand from Say Tioco on YouTube when she did a full face review of Bobbie Cosmetics. I've been wanting to get my hands on the concealer but I never found the brand anywhere during that time. After a few months, my family and I went to SM hypermart in Tiendesitas to do our groceries. While waiting for my parents to pay, I went to Watsons to buy facial wipes then I came across a Bobbie Cosmetics counter, FINALLY!!!!

As I said, I wanted to try the concealer so that was the first thing I tested. The whole counter literally screamed pink and it was too cute to just try out one product. After I picked out a concealer shade, I was intrigued by the eyebrow pencil because it looked like the one from Etude House. I swatched it on the back of my hand and I was impressed!!! It was so pigmented and the product wasnt hard to use. I got the shade grey brown and I'm currently on my 4th pencil!

Here's a photo:


PROs:
  • Very affordable at 119 pesos!
  • Dries to a matte finish
  • Not hard to use  and the texture isnt too creamy (just how I like it)
  • The shade I got matches me perfectly 
  • Lasts me a good 5-6 hours!

CONs:
  • They only have 2 shades
  • I dont like the shape of the product! After a few uses, it gives you thick streaks so you really have to use a light hand
  • Not yet readily available everywhere

I honestly wasnt expecting this product to be a favorite because I've never tried anything from their brand so I have nothing to base it on. But it turned out to be the eyebrow pencil I've been reaching for almost everyday! I probably use this more than my Etude House since it's cheaper and I find that the shade I got suits the color of my brows! A must try!
