While I slightly prefer the pomade, this is a fantastic product! So far it's the only widely available brow product I've found that matches my natural strawberry blonde hair, allowing me to fill in my blonde eyebrows. The main benefits of this over the pomade are (1) it's longer lasting, since less of it is exposed to air (even when using caps on both products), and (2) it's a pointed crayon-type thing, so it's easier to control and apply. I have noticed, however, that while it's great for going from 0 to 50, it's hard to build to 100% intensity/depth of color - it's really intended to be used for natural brow looks, which I respect. That said, when I want a really full, solid brow line (which I don't have on my own), I'm still going to reach for the pomade, which is better at smoothing over and filling in gaps, IMO.

I'm not very skilled with makeup, but I've bought many eyeshadows over the years and this palette is exceptional. It's pigmented, creamy and ethereal without being weak. I'm holding back a bit on the praise because (1) I don't know if it'd be good for "fancy" eyeshadow looks, since I wouldn't know how to asses that, and (2) I think the matte colors are kind of odd and mostly warm-toned; as a blotchy ginger, I can't really use the matte shades, and I wish they'd been more diverse. The shimmers, however, are lovely, and such pretty colors - I'm having trouble finding dupes for Cancer, which is my favorite, so for that alone it's worth it. TL;DR: Great palette and great value for $22, highly recommend!
