Try this if you love Anastasia
I was strictly a Anastasia girl— then I ran out, you know how quick those pencils go— so I bought one of these in chocolate (I used dark brown in Anastasia) and I fell in love. This is now my go to as it lasts forever at half the price! I love NYX, and it just gets better!! Try it!!

DUPE FOR HIGH END PENCILS
I love NYX micro brow. The ash brown color is a really close to dupe for Anastasia Beverly Hills, for a lot less. I also feel like it gives me the perfect control to really shape my eyebrows, get good points at the end and fill in without it looking too heavy. In fact I usually do a second fill in with the Nyx brow powder which is also a great dupe and seems to last forever. I've been using the stuff for years now but the compliments seem to keep on coming :-) I've also found that in LA, between Target Ulta and Amazon, Amazon reliably has the best price.

WHATS THE DIFFERENCE?
Great great dupe for Anastasia Beverly Hills. NYX is slightly more waxy while Anastasia is more creamy. For 10 dollars less, I think this is amazing. I will not be paying another 22 dollars for Anastiasia that's for sure.

New favorite eye brow pencil. Non-smudging, extra fine tip that never needs sharpening at a great price
Works just as well as or even better than Anastasia of Beverly Hills which I had been using for years and is > $20. The NYX tip is truly micro, and I like the harder consistency better than the Anastasia because I found the Anastasia to be a bit too soft to make extra fine brush marks. I find the marks from this pencil more difficult to rub off than the Anastasia, even in high heat and humidity. So glad I found this pencil; great price for a better performing product. No more Anastasia for me.

Great substitute for Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer
I'd been looking for a brow liner/definer that was as good as Anastasia, and I finally found it. I chose the same shade that I'd been using with the Anastasia (taupe), and this is a perfect match. It has a fine tip that I unexpectedly liked even more than the more broad tip of the other brand. I love it and it's a fraction of the cost of Anastasia. Highly recommend.

Perfect brow pencil at the perfect price
I ordered the NYX eyebrow pencil because I couldn’t justify spending $20+ on the Anastasia Beverly Hills pencil again. Although the ABH brow pencil has been my go to for a couple years now, I decided to give this a try because of the price and good reviews. It did the job for me just as well as an ABH brow pencil, and also came as a set of 3 brow pencils (not sure if I was supposed to get 3, but I’m not mad about it). I’ll probably be buying this from now on!

Loyal NYX pencil user
I’ve been buying this brow product for years as a dupe for the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Pencil and it’s amazing. 8$ beats 18$, at least the ABH one was 18$ when I last bought it! This NYX one is thin enough to get those hair like strokes- since I am blonde and have pretty much see thru hairs, it really helps me create a full and fluffy looking brow. I use the color Taupe to achieve a color match to my medium ash blonde roots. If you’re wondering about a color match, pop into Ulta and swatch some on your hand. It is cheaper to by from amazon though!

Amazing brow pencil
I love this brow pencil. Small circumference makes it easy to make believable hair strokes. The color range is great. It isn't too soft and creamy, or too waxy and hard. It is the perfect creamy but stuff consistency. Pigmentation is great. Is very like the Anastasia Beverly hills one. I prefer the tone of the ABH pencil, but this is my everyday go to.

Saved so much money!
I love this new eyebrow pencil so much! I saved like $15 since I usually buy Anastasia Beverly Hills and it’s actually very comparable to that product. High quality! I bought taupe and I actually look like a blonde when I wear this. Other brands go straight from light blonde to brown, I like that there is an in-between for us ash blondes!

Amazing Dupe
I have been using Anastasia Beverly Hill brow wiz for YEARS and after using NYX brow pencil.. I will never go back to the expensive Anastasia brow wiz. The pencil is sharper for easier use, the colors are spot-on to the brow wiz, and it is a 1/3 of the price. I will be continually buying this product again!

Amazing product& price!
This eye brow pencil is a steal! I have used Anastasia Beverly Hills eyebrow pencils before, and this nyx one works just as great but is half the price. The longevity of the pencil is perfect and it’s also long lasting. I don’t think I’ll every buy an experience pencil again bc this one works wonders. I would just make sure to get the right shade.

Excellent Brow Pencil
I bought this to replace my Anastasia BH pencil and is not only a fraction of the cost, but an even better color match. It gives the exact same precision and long wear for at an affordable price point. My new favorite must have beauty item.

I always come back to this
I've been using the NYX Micro Brow Pencil for several years now. I've tried others, Anastasia, Benefit, UD, pencils, brush on, powders and come back to the taupe NYX pencil. Lasts all day and can make the tiniest brow hairs with it. Love this! Don't ever discontinue it!

Great Dupe!
I just recently decided to try this because I was getting tired of using brow pomade and how harsh it looked on my eyebrows especially when doing the soap brow effect, & I am so happy I came across this eyebrow pencil. It almost is the same as the brow wiz. I loved that it glides on so easily and the tip is fine enough to mimic the effect of hair strokes. Plus the price compared to Anastasia is great. My eyebrows are the most important part of my makeup routine & they look great thanks to this pencil! I will definitely buy again.

Looking for a sign to buy it? Look no further!
Best eyebrow pencil i've ever tried. I used to love Anastasia's brow pencil but was looking for something more affordable since I was running out very quick. This product is beautiful! The micro pencil can create thin hair-like strokes and it's very long lasting. Best one on the market!

Anastasia dupe
Honestly, this was pretty great. It was very fine to give the most natural hair strokes, and it's pretty pigmented. I have the Anastasia one and I swear it works the same. Great price too!

Why didn't I try this sooner?
I just bought this, my first pencil and it's awesome! I have been using the Anastasia Brow Powder for years and it lasts a long time. I have tried a few benefit brow gels and other gels and I just don't care for the gels. I don't like the way they feel or the way you can see the fibers as the day goes on. I was afraid to try pomade and felt that would be too waxy and heavy on my face. I got this in black, I am Indian with olive skin and I like my brows to be dark. It was so very smooth, not drying at all and so much fun to use the spoolie on the flip side. This pencil is a lot of fun with work with and super easy for a makeup challenged uncoordinated adult as myself. I would buy this again and would even try the expresso color too.

THE BEST EYEBROW PENCIL HANDS DOWN
I have tried EVERY brow product I feel like from creams, pencils, pomades, tints, gels, powders, etc. I have tried several products within brands too such as Anastasia, Elf, Benefit, Too Faced, NYX, Milani, etc. I have very sparse, barely there blonde eyebrows to where I literally look like I have no brows that don't really grow back anymore. Something about this NYX VEGAN blend is even better then there normal NYX Micro Brow Pencil formula, which the pencil looks the same. I use color Taupe and it glides on effortlessly and able to use pencil to easily line and fill brows naturally without looking drawn on, intense or fake looking which is the goal. I sometimes go through mid to end brow tail or shade lightly front of brow with the NYX Lift and Snatch to create realistic looking hair OR for background depth color in the brow or for added fill I'll use Anastasia Taupe Powder Combo. Those 3 are hands down my favorites out of all brands/types I have used. I set with a clear brow gel to lift hairs and stays all day with no rub off but easily cleaned with micellar or cleanse.

Dupe to Anastasia
I used to use Anastasias brow pencil in shade black until I seen the price of this pencil, let me just say it's been my go to ever since, you get 2 of 1 of Anatasias, totally recommend!

Just as good if not better than Anastasia
I love the NYX better than Anastasia Beverly Hills brow which has been my hg for years!!! This slides on from the moment you open it up. Fabulous!!! My new hg

Wow.
I used to use the Anastasia Beverly Hills pencil. At less than half the price, I have to say this is a near perfect dupe for a perfect eyebrow pencil. The only difference is the slight variation in shades between the two products. NYX colors seem to be more warm in general, while ABH runs more cool. But I find that the formula is indistinguishable and applies beautifully. I've used at least three of these pencils completely and I will keep on buying.

My favorite!
I used to use Anastasia brow wiz for a while but it starting becoming to pricy to continue to repurchase and had to find a dupe. I use the shade expresso and I love how I can still see my eyebrow hairs through the pencil, you can definitely build it up and lasts all day through my 16 hour shifts. I've repurchased over 8 times and will continue to use this! Holy grail!

Love it.
I always use Anastasia Brow Wiz and I have to say this is right there with it for half the price. I am one for buying what I want and if it works good I will keep buying it. This is my new go to and if your looking to save some $ this is the one to go with. I love Anastasia products but it would be foolish to keep buying that pencil when this one works exactly the same and last long. I'm sold goodbye brow wiz !!

Definitely a good buy
I usually purchase the Anastasia Beverly Hills brand for my eyebrows but this is not bad at all. Can't really see a difference.....other than the price. I may have to continue to purchase this one!

MY HOLY GRAIL!
I adore this eyebrow pencil! I used to swear by my Anastasia brow wiz but I just went through them way too fast and I couldn't afford $20+ every month or two for an eyebrow pencil. I discovered this product and fell IN LOVE! Not only is the color perfect but it still lasts me about 2-3 months and it's half the price. Don't get me wrong I did love my ABH brow pencils but the NYX does the job just as well!

Great brow pencil
I used to use the Anastasia brow definer. I tried this one on a whim bc it's about half the price of ABH. I've used it ever since. It's great! It gets the job done, stays put but also blends well when I brush through my brows. It also lasts me for months. 10/10 recommend!

I got more compliments than when used ABH!
This product is very affordable compared to some of the other options. I stood by my Anastasia Beverly Hills brow wiz...until I started college and needed something a bit more affordable. So I decided to try the NYX micro pencil and I don't think I'll be switching to anything else other! In two days, I got like 7 compliments on my eyebrows, people. I didn't change anything other than using a different pencil.

Love!!!
Since i started wearing makeup I've only been using Anastasia products for my brows and after a while i decided to give other brands a chance. This brow pencil met my expectations. Applies so smoothly and shapes my brows how i like them. Definitely recommended it.

Go-to
I literally buy this in bulk every few months and have yet to find anything cheaper that works just as well. I use Ash Brown and it suited pretty much any brunette hair shade I've had. Easiest and quickest brow product ever, goes on smooth, very close dupe to the Anastasia Brow Wiz
