Today, my package has arrived!! In much anticipation of warm weather, I’ve
been on the hunt for some beauty staples that could withstand the summer
heat. MAC Cosmetics kicked the new year
off with the Stylish Brow collection; a collection with all the promises of
eyebrow, face framing perfection. I have
tried many different brow products, but I’ve always navigated back to using my
faithful MAC eyeshadow, to fill them in.
This collection featured many different brow tools/products; from
pencils to powders to gelcremes. Once I
learned that the gelcremes were transfer proof/waterproof, I was sold…but…as
the saying goes, “you snooze, you lose”.
By the time I came around to this collection, all of the Fluidline Brow
Gelcremes in Deep Dark Brunette were sold out not only on MAC’s website, but
also at my local MAC counter.
Last week, while perusing the net, I came across the most
wonderful blog (swatchmechocolate.blogspot.com) and found…cue the celestial
choir…a post on MAC’s Fluidline Brow Gelcreme!!
Not only was there a post with review about this product, but there was
a link to where the product was still available…NORDSTROM. I completely forgot about this little gem of
MAC hopefuls. I quickly ordered my gelcreme
and I’m glad I did because, as my package arrived today, the gelcremes are no
longer available on the Nordstrom site.
MAC still has one color held up on its site. The product retails for $16 USD on MAC's website, but I purchased it from Nordstrom for $15 USD.
With the approaching warm months and bright clothing
palettes, I want to ensure that my makeup doesn’t slide off of my face and onto
my clothes. Having a product like this
can be very helpful to maintaining a polished look in the heat. Today, I swatched the gelcreme and here are
the pics…

This is a product that you don’t want to take your time with
as it dries fairly quickly. Once this
gelcreme dries, it is set. I rubbed my
fingers across my brows and didn’t find any transferring of the product. Whether or not this product holds up against
water or humidity, I haven’t tried yet, but it’s already more promising than
anything I’ve used in the past. I really
hope MAC considers either bringing this product back or making it permanent.
What are your thoughts?
Are there any other comparable products on the market? What is your favorite brow product?
It looks very natural. I almost can't tell a difference between the two pictures.
