New for fall, Maybelline is extending its brow line with the addition of the new BrowDrama Pro Palettes ($16.99 CAD). Available in four shades (Blond, Auburn, Soft Brown, and Deep Brown), the BrowDrama palettes come with everything you need to up your brow game. To see some swatches and a demo of the "260 Deep Brown" palette, click.......

Packaging:
The BrowDrama Pro Palette comes in a simple black plastic compact. The palette holds three pans and there are two slots for a spoolie and a duo-ended angled-brow brush. The brush is of decent quality and it works pretty well at applying both the wax and the powder.

Formulation:
Inside the "260 Deep Brown" palette, there is a dark brown wax, a dark brown brow powder, and a soft pearlescent pink shimmer highlight. The wax has a nice and quick-setting texture while the highlight is very creamy and smooth. The brow powder is a tad patchy but with the brown wax as a base, the duo provides a natural but full coverage. I would have preferred the option of a grey-black color selection for those with black hair but the deep browns make an okay pairing.

Below is the before and after of the BrowDrama Pro Palette. I used both the wax and the powder and a tiny touch of the highlighter on my brow bones. As you can see, the result is actually pretty natural!

Overall:
This is a pretty good brow kit. I personally prefer using just a simple brow liner but I suppose for special occasions when I have a lot of time to do my makeup, I would use this instead. I like that the wax is colored and it works as a great base for the brow powder to really adhere to. Finally, the little tools included with the palette actually prove to be quite useful, no additional tools are required!

Availability:
The BrowDrama Palettes are available starting October in drugstores nationwide.
