The packaging is just as cool as the rest of the collection.
The inside of the box is pink with white polka dots! So cute!
The brow box itself has a similar design to the blush and eyeshadow palettes.
The top compartment has two brow powders, a clear brow wax and a mirror.
The bottom compartment has tiny, adorable brow tools and a magnification mirror!
I tested out the tools and they actually work quite well! The brow brushes apply the powder evenly and are very small, so it's easy to be precise. The tweezers work great for plucking one or two strays.
Here are the swatches with the lighter shade on top and the darker shade on the bottom.

I'll admit that I bought this brow set because it was on sale. Like I really need more brow products! I thought I'd just use them to fill in sparse areas. But to my surprise, I actually love these brow powders all on their own! The light shade is great by itself for the whole brow, but I also like to add the darker shade to define the tail of the brow. The wax is helpful, but my brows lay pretty flat, so I don't necessarily need wax. It's a nice addition, though. The tools are great and functional and it's a very nice touch that they added a mirror with magnification. This would be an awesome kit for travel!
Here's what one brow (my left brow) looks like with both brow powders and a bit of the wax (my right brow doesn't have anything on it).
The powder is very pigmented and buttery. It blends beautifully and lasts all day. It also plays well with other brow products. I tried combining both the shades of the brow powder with an Anastasia brow pencil and the pencil worked to give a bit more definition.
I love this brow palette because it has everything you need for a defined brow look. I think it would be great for cool-toned blondes or possibly even cool-toned brunettes, because you can really build it up. The Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Brow Box is a steal at $15! I'm so glad that I got it!
