NYX has been releasing quite a few products lately, and being that I’m a huge fan, I’ve also been getting my hands on everything that looked promising. One of their new products is Tame & Frame Tinted Brow Pomade.

This, may come as a bit of a shock but the Tame & Frame Tinted Brow Pomade by NYX is my first brow pomade. I’m not too much into overly sculpted brows and most definitely prefer a much more subtle and natural look. I always like to stick to brow powders and pencils (with an exception of Anastasia’s Beverly Hills Brow Wiz, which is a bit of a mix between a pomade and a pencil).

NYX Brow Pomade in Brunette

I decided to go with a shade “Brunette” since I’m.. well.. a brunette. A lot of brow powders in this color range tend to have some green under tones that can make my brows look a bit weird under certain lighting. I found this shade to be pretty close to the color of my hair, which gives me a natural look that isn’t too dark.

I loved the formula of this pomade. It was very light, creamy and much easier to work with than powders. It glides smoothly on to skin and grabs even the tiniest of brow hair easily. My eyebrows can be a bit difficult to tame at times, as they like to stick in many different directions, and it was much easier to tame them with this than it usually is with powder products. I used a small angled brush to delicately fill in my eyebrows using small strokes and then brushing through my brows with a spoolie. I found that this was so easy and quick to work with. You can go as intense as you want with this, as it builds up pretty easily and doesn’t get all cakey.

I was pretty impressed with the staying power of this pomade. Despite not usually setting it with powder, it stays on all day, doesn’t smudge or fade. Another huge plus? It’s only $6.99 (I got mine at Ulta, it comes in 5 shades: Blonde, Chocolate, Brunette, Espresso and Black). A little bit goes a long way so I see this lasting me for ages and ages. I’m seriously in love with this pomade. Have any of you tried it yet?

Remember, that the most important relationship in your life is relationship you have with yourself. The most important person you can love is YOU, only then you can give your best to others.

    This looks fantastic! It looks a bit warm, though. I prefer my brow products to be more taupe-ish or grey but I will definitely give this a go :) Thanks for the review! And thank god other brands are realising not everyone has access to ABH! Come to my European stores, please!

      I like taupe-y shades too, but for some reason most of them tend to look green-ish on me :( . The formula is pretty awesome and it does come in several different shades, maybe one of the lighter ones would a better fit for you?

    Products like this make me really wish I took the time to even attempt to fill in brows. I pluck and shape them but that is it, oops..!

      Hehe ;) You don’t need to do anything that you don’t feel comfortable doing! I personally didn’t bother filling in my brows for years, but once I tried it once, I was hooked! You can always try using an eyeshadow similar to your hair color on your brows and play around with it, see how you like it. ;)

    I love the effect it gives on you! I have never tried a brow pomade, as I am so in love with my Brow Wiz that I haven’t felt the need to try anything else! They sound so interesting though ;) xx

    I’ve been on the hunt for a good pomade and this one looks great but NYX isn’t easy to get a hold of in the UK :(

    I love when I’m not online for awhile, because then I get to binge read my favorite blogs like yours! :)

    I haven’t tried this yet actually, I have the Anastasia Brow Pomade and I loved it at first but after a while the product changes texture and gets kind of..gross? I guess that’s the best word for it. The price tag for this is much better! Nyx is totally knocking it out of the park with all of their new releases. I’m so happy to see someone review this product! I’ve been waiting for awhile.

      Awww you’re so sweet Karissa, thank you!

      Oh really? I so want to try the pomade, but I definitely like my eyebrows on a natural side. Sucks that it changes texture after a while! Oh they definitely are, I love seeing new releases from them and all their new products that were just released recently seem great!
