Pros and cons
What we like
- Ultra-slim retractable tip draws hair-fine strokes
- Spoolie end softens and blends edges in the same pencil
- 12 shades to match natural brow color
- Vegan and waterproof for all-day wear
What may bother
- Hair-fine strokes take a few minutes to fill a full brow
- A shade picked blind can read too dark or too warm
Our verdict
80 / 100Sparse-brow friends get the most from it: you draw strokes that look like individual hairs, then brush them soft. It makes a neat small gift for a teen or adult who already fills her brows. If you do not know her shade, ask first.

How we score
The CTG score out of 100 is the weighted average of five criteria rated for every product: proven reliability (36%), perceived value (18%), bond and memory (18%), originality (14%) and novelty (14%). Each criterion has its own published scale, identical for every product: it rates generously, because every product in our selection is already good. The score does not depend on the guide. 60 to 69: average gift. 70 to 77: good pick. 78 to 85: safe bet. 86 to 89: favorite. 90 and above: the perfect gift, a label reserved for excellent products that customers like, one winner per occasion. In a guide, the score for the recipient combines this score with the place in the ranking. The budget is an indicative range: the exact price is shown by the store at checkout.
