Eyebrow dyes – reviews

Syoss Brow Tint

What I liked the most: The eyebrow dye test was dominated by the Syoss Brow Tint box which is available in 3 shades. I chose the lightest shade, light brown, because it was only slightly darker than my natural eyebrow and hair colour. Thanks to the practical brush, the eyebrow dye was very easy to apply after mixing, and it lasted almost 4 weeks. Great job!

Advantages: I'm thrilled with the result. The shade looks very natural, the colour of my eyebrows is even, and they look thicker now. Eyebrow dyeing highlighted my face overall. I managed to get it all done at home! One pack lasts for 10 applications, so I'll definitely be happy to do it again.

Disadvantages: Some people may be afraid that they will not judge the ratio of colour and developer correctly (1 gram per 10 drops) and the final shade of their eyebrows will be slightly darker. But for the more adventurous or slightly more experienced, this will be the best eyebrow dye they've ever had.

RefectoCil Eyelash and Eyebrow

What I liked the most: The main thing I appreciate about RefectoCil Eyelash and Eyebrow is that you can use it not only on eyebrows, but also on eyelashes. It's even available in 8 shades, so there's plenty to choose from. The colour lasted for a whopping 6 weeks on my eyebrows and lashes, and one pack is also good for up to 30 applications. The price-performance ratio here is awesome.

Advantages: The pure black shade I tested suited my eyelashes more. It made my eyelashes look thicker and longer, and overall they were much more prominent, and I didn't need mascara anymore. I left the dye on my eyebrows for a shorter period of time, but it was still too dark as a result. I'll try a different shade next time.

Disadvantages: The packaging contains only dyeing paste, and you need to purchase RefectoCil Oxidant liquid oxidant or RefectoCil Oxidant cream oxidant as well. Then you need to mix the eyebrow dye with one of these at the correct ratio. Buying 2 different products might put some people off.

Maybelline Tattoo Brow

What I liked the most: Maybelline Tattoo Brow semi-permanent gel eyebrow dye is already blended, so you can apply it directly to your eyebrows using a thin applicator. The colour dries on it and then you simply peel it off. Very easy!

Advantages: I was pleased with the ingredients which include aloe vera and royal jelly to nourish the hairs of the eyebrows. Also, as a beginner with dyeing I welcomed that the dye only lasts for 3 days. It made me feel better in case I didn't like the result.

Disadvantages: I wasn't too happy that only a dye applicator was included.I missed having a brush to brush my eyebrows with after dyeing them and give them a final touch up.

KISS Brow Tint DIY Kit

What I liked the most: KISS Brow Tint DIY Kit eyebrow dye is only sold in two basic shades of brown and black, but by mixing the colour paste with two drops of the developer, you can create your own shade at the desired intensity. It just takes a little practice and skill.

Advantages: This dye lasts up to 6 weeks on eyebrows and the contents of the kit last for 20 or more uses. It will give you really beautiful eyebrows after application. It's as if you've entrusted yourself to the skilled hands of a beautician, at an incomparably lower price.

Disadvantages: Those who have no experience with eyebrow colouring should choose a different eyebrow dye for the first time, which does not offer such a long lasting effect. Just to be sure…

The best eyebrow dye

Delia Cosmetics Eyebrow Expert

What I liked the most: Delia Cosmetics Eyebrow Expert eyebrow tint is again a great choice for lovers of long lasting colour. It lasts about 4 weeks on eyebrows and one pack lasts up to 20 applications. As a bonus, the price is very friendly, which will also entice many.

Advantages: It contains natural henna from India, which nourishes and strengthens individual eyebrow hairs. The great thing about it is that it does not require the use of activator or peroxide. Just mix the dye powder at the prescribed ratio with warm water. A handy jar with a lid is also included for easy mixing of the dye.

Disadvantages: The dye also stains your skin under your eyebrows for up to two weeks. It makes eyebrows look a bit tattoo-like and the individual hairs don't stand out as much.

Christian Laurent Pour La Beauté

What I liked the most: Christian Laurent Pour La Beauté eyebrow dye is applied with a thin applicator. The dye consistency is just right, so it doesn't run down from the eyebrows, and sticks to them really well.

Advantages: It dyes and highlights individual eyebrow hairs well thanks to the practical applicator. You also don't need to mix the dye yourself, so no need to stress about getting the ratio wrong. This eyebrow dye is very fast and easy to use.

Disadvantages: The eyebrow dye is only available in one shade, dark brown, which is too dark for lighter types. I also missed a brush for finishing my eyebrows again.

Did you find our eyebrow dye test useful? Will you decide to try one of the longer lasting colours or try a shorter one to start with? Either way, fingers crossed you'll be very happy with the results! So are you clear on the best eyebrow dye? We hope the reviews have given you a hint.
