I swore I would never join the brow pomade revolution and I kept to my word until my NYX Micro Brow and bareMinerals brow pencils ran out and I had to make the trip to town. I’ve always used brow pencils and the Instagram brows that have exploded turned me off using brow pomades. My regular NYX Micro Brow pencil was out of stock and the sales advisor recommended the NYX Tame & Frame Brow Pomade in Espresso and gestured to her colleague who was wearing it. Surprisingly, it was actually cheaper than the NYX Micro Brow pencil so I decided to give it a go.
Wearing NYX Tame & Frame Brow Pomade in Espresso
I will never go back to brow pencils now. I never thought I’d cross over to the dark side. (But don’t think I’ll be carving my brows out with ashy concealer. That will never happen.)
I really like NYX Tame & Frame Brow Pomade in Espresso. The colour is dark, but not too dark. It’s opaque, creamy and easy to apply. I would like to try the next shade down just for comparison sake. I used to use my Real Techniques slanted brush that came in the original eye collection but I actually prefer my slanted brush by The Body Shop as it’s thinner and sharper.
As you can see you can use NYX Tame & Frame brow pomade without your brows looking as though they’re painted on your face.
This is definitely a favourite product of mine and I love that it’s drugstore price!
What is your favourite eyebrow product?
Love blackpistachio x
I looooove Tame & Frame I use if daily, only thing is it driestill out kinda quick but I guess all pomades do, I can’t imagine using a pencil now. I really want to give wunderbrow a go at some point. Your brows look fab btw!xfjx
Thanks, lovely!! Xox
I first started off with Mac dipbrow after using pencils and powder. I used to always end up with no brows ant the end of the day and wanted something long lasting that stayed put. Now my brows only come off when I want them too! Pomade changed my life! I’m currently using ABH pomade but need a darker shade. I’m off to the NYX counter! Yours look amazing!!
Thank you!!!! It only costs £5.50 which is amazing 😊 xo
Love how your brows came out!! I’ve never really used a brow pot before I’m so used to pencil I need to try!!

Thank you! 🙂 definitely try it. It’s so easy to get a neat dark line. Xo
What kind of brush are you using with this dip?
I’m using the slanted brush by The Body Shop. I’ve had it for several years and only in the last few months is it getting some use! I’ll include a photo 😊
I need to invest in a good slanted brush!! My eye brows and going eyeliner are my weak areas LOL
https://www.thebodyshop.com/en-gb/make-up/brushes-and-tools/slanted-brush/p/p000033 I use this one! 😄
Thanks girlie!! Going to check it out now! XO
I love NYX products! Haven’t tried this one yet but I really want to 🙂 your brows look amazing!
Thanks dude! Give it a shot and let me know if you like it 🙂 x
[…] I never thought I’d like a brow pomade. I’m not a massive fan of Instagram brows. You know the look, when they look proper painted on the face. I know some people do, though. However, with a little practice and patience I’ve grown to really like this product. It’s only 5 quid, super pigmented and makes my brows look effortlessly groomed. You just need a really good, super sharp, slanted brush and you’re done. I did a detailed post here. […]
Your brows look amazing and natural, I’m currently growing mine out so I can try a different shape and I feel the same about the instagram brows. They are too much but the idea of a more defined brow is beautiful. I’ll be looking for this next time I’m in boots or Superdrug!
I still use this! Cheap and does the job wonderfully!!
I wonder… do you carve those brows now though? haha
 Love your make up and brows here
Haha! I do not. I’m so put off my the ashy concealers people tend to favour for the task. Oy.
Those brows are amazing! They look super natural. Everything is really blended out to smoothly.
Thanks Catherine! I never thought I’d join the brow pomade brigade 😉
