YSL Couture Brow Marker

That I regularly head south for a visit to my brow queen, you all know that. I still dare not let my brushes (the ones above my eyes, yes) be handled by a (probably very good) strange brow bar in Amsterdam. Well, here comes my OCD again. Sorry not sorry. I prefer to plop down in the chair at my favorite every other week. But yes, time is money, because such an appointment is not done in half an hour. Hair in the dye, coffee and chit-chat, dye out, string along, more chit-chat, plucking, another round in the dye and we are an hour and a half further.

The weekends in Amsterdam are filled with dinners, shopping, parties and uhummmm... dates... Busy then. As a result, I walk around with perfect eyebrows for the first half of the month and have to do a bit more myself in the last half. Now Mr. Saint Laurent has relieved me of my suffering. I certainly don't want to show up on a date with messy, uneven brushes above my eyes. With the new Couture Brow Marker, which looks like a highlighter, I can easily conjure up the perfect eyebrow in ten seconds. You can apply it lightly for a natural look, or darker and bolder for a wild touch to your eyebrow. You don't have to worry about suddenly bouncing into the office with half eyebrows after lunch; the color sticks to your brushes for 24 hours. Look, that's useful. This way you survive the month without an appointment at the brow bar.

Believe me, you want this one.

The Couture Brow Marker comes in two colors: blonde and light brown and is available at ICI Paris XL and Douglas.
