SWATCH + REVIEW FEATURING GT Cosmetics' Brow in a Snap ⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬⏬ Packaging : 5/5 Smell : 5/5 Application : 8/5 Comfort : 5/5 Texture : 5/5 Longevity : 10/5 /VERDICT/ These brow pencils are to die for! The physical appearance of this is very plain and simple with the black pencil container and gold lettering! It has a retractable brow pencil on one end and brush on the other end for blending! The brand name is imprinted on the pencil itself which is actually nice but prone to it being erased as time pass by or when you always use it. The packaging / box has all the details you need to know about the product like Ingredients (Cyclopentasiloxane, Hydrogenated Microcrystalline Cera, Ozokerite Wax, Dimethicone, Synthetic Wax, CI 77499, CI 77492, CI 77491 and CI 77891), Product Weight and Expiration Date. It doesn't have any scent or maybe i just can't smell it which i would definitely choose over a crayon smell

I really love how Skinpotions puts an extra effort to make their products' labels kawaii and uniformed! Even to the smallest details of it like the candies on the labels of these are different colors matching their shades! Yes it's once again, waterproof labels! I think all, if not, most of their labels now are waterproof. And it has all the information you need to know about the product which is the Brand Name, Product Name, Product Weight (10g), Shade and the Ingredients (Shea Butter, Beeswax, Coconut Oil and Fruit Pigments). The tube may be a simple and typical twist-up but it's actually the wisest container for lip balm, at least for me and in my opinion. You can
