It is time for a new beauty review here on my blog. Today I am going to be chatting you through a product which I am sure you will already know all about. That is the Benefit Gimme Brow. I can remember when I was much younger and I was getting into watching beauty reviews on YouTube. This was an item that I wanted to try out. Everybody else in the world seemed to own it and love it. As much as I wanted to try it, I didn’t know how it would work for myself. I naturally had very dense eyebrows and I had no idea how to tame them. The idea of adding something them to make them look even bigger was a scary concept. It wasn’t until I finally got my hands on this that I realised I had been missing out!
How I use this item?
As I mentioned above, I was actually to start using this product because naturally, I do have eyebrows that could rival that of a tawny owl. However, I think that the key for me was just to use this product with a very light hand. I can remember the first time I used this. I loaded the brush up with loads of product. Not to mention that I didn’t stop until every single brow hair was positioned. I looked crazy to say the least. Honestly, I am not one of those Insta-Babes that can pull off that kind of look. In the end, I use a very light amount to lay the hairs how I want them to be positioned. Then thanks to the colour in the product, it helps to fill in any sparse areas that I have. Without need to go in with another item.

How it compares to other brow items?
I am somewhat of a fiend when it comes to eyebrow products and I have a collection now. Honestly, I reckon that could rival the shelves of Space NK. I think that as I have gotten older, I have realised more and more the importance of brows. How crucial they are to everything else on your face looking correct. That means that I have splashed the cash on so many different products over the years. For me, the main reason why I have so many brow products is that I am always trying to find the perfect item. Even though this is one of the best items that I have in my collection and without a doubt it trumps most of what I already have. There are still things that I am looking for.
Â
What are the shades like?
When I first went ahead and bought this brow product, the shade range was incredibly limited and it wasn’t hard for me to find the right shade for me and that is simply because there was only 4 to choose from and at that time, I was the darkest in the range. I have just been on their website now and I can see incredibly easily that they have added so many different shades to the range and there is even a wonderful grey option, which I can only imagine is a fantastic thing if you have got grey hair. One thing that does kind of annoy me is when brands come out with a sub-par range which is not universal for everybody, but then gets praise for adapting years later, but it is just something to note because it is at least a step in the right direction!
Â
Will I continue to repurchase this?
The last thing that I want to talk about in this blog post is whether I will go ahead and repurchase this item. As I mentioned earlier on in this blog post, I have tried out many other brow items of a similar nature since first getting my hands on this, from a wide number of brands. For example, the Refy Brow Fix is one of my all-time favourite products and the Charlotte Tilbury Legendary Brows is a ride or die item to me without fail. The reason why I will without a doubt continue to purchase the Benefit Gimme Brow is because it combines all of the best parts from the other brow items that I have in my collection, into one handy little brow product.Â
I hope that you guys liked reading this blog post. If you have been looking for something to give your brows some natural lift and body, this is the item. Honestly, I have been using this for years and it is one of the holy grail items. I always like to keep one of in my makeup collection. I think that it is a truly beautiful item. When used correctly very lightly, it gives you that incredible model-esque brow. Not to mention that if you are in a hurry, this is the go-to item!
