Clio Tinted Tattoo Kill Brow



Finally ordered these online. It came in 3 colours. I avoided the lightest colour since my hair is black and I'll look like I'm crazy if I use the light brown colour - brunette wannabe much.


Picture taken from the web. Currently watching the drama Producer and this model looks like one of the actresses hahah.. Maybe she's the person. Her eyebrows look very well drawn here. I think I should draw mine a little thicker. Bushier look is not too bad.. 





Mascara eyebrow attached at the other end. This brush is a little different from the usual mascara brush. One side is flatter. Probably it's because you only use one side to brush anyway? Hahaha I have no clue. Feels weird initially because sometimes I might use the flat type to brush so I need to make sure I use the right side up. They pick up a lot of gunk from the pot. So you have to brush slowly. Unlike the other eyebrow mascara I've tried, they all seem to pick up a lot only when you start using and subsequently kind of dry up a little - which is fine with me because I don't like wiping off the excess on my brows. I have used this for a few times and they are still thick. It's supposed to be good I suppose for those who need a lot of top ups from the mascara.


Pen tip is like a marker. Not like the other soft felt tip kind. These are not too bad and they don't make a huge difference compared to the others. I have no preference between the two. They both work just fine.


#1 Earth Brown on the left and #3 Dark Brown on the right. The colour doesn't seem to differ much but off camera it's noticeable. I will probably just pick out one colour when I need to refill next time. The tint colour doesn't build up that much. First line to third line from the top are the number of strokes I've applied them with. 


This is the rub test with after I've sprayed it with water. It's pretty long lasting. It does rub off but only when you put in a little effort. You can probably wear this to swim. I have yet to try that but I think I will soon and update again. The eyebrow mascara is liquidy so be careful upon application. Little bit goes a long way. 


Using #3 Dark Brown here. Colour fits my hair. Not too light and not too dark. When you have make up on, the other make up items you use seem to fall in place just fine.


Using #1 Earth Brown here. Doesn't look much lighter than the darker colour. But there is a difference off camera. Personally I dont mind both colour. It's not too light for my hair. One thing I've noticed is sometimes after I remove my make up, the next morning I will notice a little residue on my brows which... I'm still wondering if it's the leftover from this tint or did my brows grow thicker finally? Hahahaha I hope it's the latter.



Clio Tinted Tattoo Kill Brow
#1 Earth Brown
#3 Dark Brown

Pros
One set as the eyebrow mascara so you don't need to carry an extra item.
Pretty long lasting.
Easy to apply.


Cons
Size is huge compared to the normal eyebrow tint.
There's a tendency to over apply the eyebrow mascara.


Here are the reviews for the other eyebrow tint I've tried:

  1. Hi, thanks for the review! Would you say that the earth brown shade is reddish?

    1. Hello!
      No, it doesn't look reddish on me. But maybe if you have one of those reddish tinted looking embroidered eyebrows I guess I can see why it could end up looking reddish. Otherwise, it's really more brown, not red.

  2. Both colors look great on you. :)

    Fyi I read that the instructions are to wash your face at night then shade in your brows before you do your skincare routine, then leave it overnight. It's supposed to last for a week.

    1. Hi! I prefer Clio for now. It's easier to draw on a thicker look. If you prefer a more natural look you should go for the Etude tint. But if you like a thicker and darker look then you should try Clio. :)

    2. Since its concept is "tatoo-like eyebrow" that can last for a week, like u said there is residue even after u remove your makeup. (How long it takes for the residue to completely gone?) Do u think it is actually harmful to our skin to have makeup to stay on our face, maybe after sometimes we will get problem like 色素沉淀?😅 i have dark brown hair color, #1 or #3 would suit me better? (Hahaha sorry for having so many questions, and thank u for your time :D)

    3. Hi Xuan, If I don't apply clio the next day, when I remove my make up for the day the whole eyebrow is clean. So lets say you use clio day one and you remove it, you'll see a little bit left. But if day two you use etude tint there will be nothing left after you remove it.
      Yes, I feel it might be harmful to keep make up on. I prefer to let my whole face breathe for the night. If you have dark brown hair, maybe you can go for #01 Earth Brown since the mascara is of a lighter shade. I dont think the tint colour are very noticeably different.

    1. Hi! My hair is un-dyed also. I guess you are better off with the darkest colour - Dark Brown. I think with my hair shade I can carry both off. They don't look that much of a difference to be honest. In the pictures I posted I think Earth Brown looks slightly lighter on me. If your hair is the same shade as mine then both will look ok on you.
