Can you remember the products that I got from Beautycarousel.com? See blogpost. I have been very curious about this real lasting 2-way eyebrow pencil from K-palette since it has one powder and one liquid side, its waterproof, it gives you a natural finish and it claims to stay for the whole day! It has two shades and I got the pencil in #01 Chocolate Brown. In this blogpost I will be reviewing this product, keep on reading if you're curious as well =D!
Description
The revolutionary 24H Real Lasting 2-Way Eyebrow Liner now comes with a powder tip on the other end to compliment its liquid tip! You can now simultaneously shade and tint long-lasting eyebrows with its smudge-proof and water-resistant polymers, and use the powder tip to draw eyebrows even more naturally. This waterproof eyebrow liner is made of just the right amount of translucence such that the colour is deep enough to conceal the sparse areas of your eyebrows but not too dark that it gives a severe and unforgiving tone. If you require a darker tone, just go over the same area twice or more. Suitable for everyone, from beginners to prefessionals!
Price and Where to buy?
You can purchase this at http://www.beautycarousel.com/kpalette for $19.78. It might seem expensive, but keep in mind that you will get 2 products in 1! So the price is actually quite reasonable :). The eyebrow pencil is available in two shades: #01 Chocolate brown and #02 Honey brown. Chocolate brown is recommended for tanned skin types or dark colored hair and honey brown is recommended for fair skin types or light colored hair.

Packaging
It has a great packaging with Japanese and English descriptions. The ingredients are written at the back as well. The product is manufactured in Osaka, Japan.
Powder and Liquid liner
What's so special about this eyebrow pencil is that it has 2 useful sides: one liquid and one powder. In the picture below you can see the area where the powder is filled. You need to twist that area open and you will see an applicator with some powder on it. On the other side you need to pull the cap to use the liquid liner. Love it that there are 2 sides and both are very easy to use. The powder won't fall off the applicator as well. The liquid liner has a fine tip which makes it very easy to create thin lines and to fill in gabs.
How to use
Use the powder tip to shade the front of your eyebrows and then use the liquid end to draw the end of your eyebrows. Make sure to keep the cap tightly to prevent drying. If you leave the eyebrow liner in an upright position for a long period of time it may cause the color to become lighter. Therefore put the pen on its side or face downwards.
Swatches
Here are some swatches of the 2-way eyebrow pencil from K-palette in chocolate brown #01. Both are looking very natural. Even the liquid one looks natural, since it's not harsh.
My opinion
I totally love it! It's very easy to use and the color is perfect for my dark hair. The liquid side is actually my favorite! The fine tip makes it so easy to fill in the gabs and you really can create the look that you want, you can even decide the darkness yourself. What I also liked about it is that its totally smudge proof and it did stay great for the whole day, so it really does what it claims! When I dye my hair lighter I will definitely purchase this eyebrow pencil in honey brown as well =D.
