A few blog posts ago [last week?] i wrote about the eyebrow pencils and eyebrow mascara i am currently using. However i had actually been testing a new product but wanted to use it a full week before writing a review. Here is the item
Special “Eyebrow” LE Set from Parado
I purchased this from as a preorder from a Parado Cosmetic Agent as i dont think it is sold in stores [maybe not yet..no idea]
The set comes with a Lasting Eyebrow Pencil + Electric Eyebrow Shaver
The eyebrow shaver is not sold seperately and not part of Parado’s normal lineup.
It runs on 1 AA battery.
The packaging is gorgeous of course….
Verdict: this is my first experience with an electric eyebrow trimmer but i thought it did a really good job tidying up my brows. Has become an essential part of my must-haves. I like having tidy brows XD i find that if my brows dont look good when i do it in the morning, the rest of my day will be kinda crap hahaha
And the main part of the package
Parado Lasting Eyebrow Pencil in BR03
Swatch
Verdict: the color is a little darker than i expected. Not so good for me right now as my hair is lighter. However if i dye it darker, i will be back using this. The quality is good and the pencil not too soft. Long lasting as well.
Where to buy:
I dont know if stores are carrying this package. I looked on the Parado website and i dont see it being listed either. However if you are interested in getting this package, you can try contacting Fumiko at her website here : http://fumikitagawa.wordpress.com/ to see if she has any left?
In other news, i have been doing some sewing lately…

I wont show the front of it since its a surprise XD
I have so many sewing projects i am in the midst of XD Hopefully i can finish them as well as all the ideas i have. There just isnt enough time LOL
In semi related crafty news, i am trying to learn how to crochet but being lefthanded i am having a lot of problems learning! Thankfully a friend of mine [Natalia] has experience teaching left handers despite being right handed so hopefully i get it! So far i am practising at home but mostly i am swearing hahaha Hope i can show you guys the result someday!
XOXO
