Long-lasting Eyebrow Liner for Newbies

Over the holidays, I tried signing up on this new review site, Try and Review. So it's a site where you sign up to review products. Package will be delivered to you and you just have to try and submit a review. Easy-peasy. 

I signed up to review the Define and Blend brow pencil of Maybelline. Yes, I am going to review a beauty product. I still don't associate myself as kikay, however I do believe #kilayislife. So anyway, I got the product on the first week of 2019, albeit signing up around mid-December. 

Another great product from Maybelline! 

Upon receiving the package, I immediately noticed it was light. Literal na magaan, mga mumsh. That's a good sign for me since I can control the pressure when I apply it on myself.

But wait, there's more.

I did try applying it on. It was soooooo easy. However, I had to repeat some strokes since I found it too light on my skin. Baka sumobra lang ang moisturizer ko at naging oily na ako kaya ayaw kumapit. Will get back on that again next week.

The application was so easy. It was one of its product features anyway. Newbies and people who are scared of doing their brows will find this product perfect. It doesn't smudge easily, so when you overdo it, easy clean-up pa rin.

Price was okay for me. Eyebrow liners/pencils are something I don't usually splurge on. So I usually look for stuff that's below Php300. This product in particular is very pasok sa banga at Php249. How long it's going to last in my kit will be another post perhaps. 

This product is something I'd recommend. Easy to apply, keeps your brow natural-looking and affordable. With that I'd give it 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Shameless selfie.

In case you're wondering, here's the review I posted in the site. Look for it and rate it useful. (Please, pretty please with cherry on top.)

A lightweight brow liner that's so easy to apply! Perfect for newbies and women on the go, the application took me less than five minutes. There's nothing to be scared of, if you're not used to brow liners, this one's really easy to use. I mentioned it's lightweight - very easy to control the pressure of your hand when applying the product. The price is just right and totally worth it.

Commercialize It.

In response to the Say It with Toblerone campaign, Hershey's (finally) joined in on the personalized bandwagon and launched their own campaign: Hershey's Happygram!

While Toblerone has been doing well with it's personalized chocolate bar marketing gimmick, Hershey's is gaining points for making it social. Unlike Toblerone, Hershey's is crowd sourcing-ish the words to print on their chocolate bars. Deviating from standard greetings like "Happy birthday!" and "Good job!", Hershey's turned to social media to ask consumers to share happy thoughts. All it takes to participate is taking a selfie and uploading it with the hashtag #Happygram. Hershey's will then make chocolate bars with wrappers that have your words on it. I have yet to find out how Hershey's decides which ones to produce - they're picking out the top five so make sure you upload your best selfie. I read somewhere in the comments that people have until the end of September to submit their entries.

I only saw the announcement on my Facebook News Feed. So yeah, I'm not being paid to write about this. LOL.

This seems like a better idea than Toblerone's, as far as social media is concerned. Getting your fans involved in your products is a great way to show appreciation for their loyalty to your brand. Hershey's lack of transparency over the mechanics and rules of this campaign is a different sad story, however. Oh well. You can't have everything. Meanwhile, here's a video of Hershey's instructions how to join the Happygram Maker promo:
