Hated the applicator, but alright results

I received this product free, and will provide an honest review of the Maybelline precise fiber volumizer.

At first glance, I was shocked to see what the actual applicator looked like (it looked like some weird insect). It looked very clumpy, and there was no way of really removing extra product off. I tried this product over top of the Maybelline drama brow powder, and again over the Maybelline micro pencil. I normally use this type of product in combination with a product I would fill my eyebrows with (I mainly use this to make sure my all eyebrow hair are in order/going the same direction). The only difference here is that it's also tinted brown.
When I applied this product it went on a bit too much in spots (I blame that on the poorly designed applicator), but I did like the actual formula.

hard to apply and hard to wash off

I bought this in my hunt to find a cheaper alternative to Benefit's Gimme Brow and I have to say this is not the answer. The colour is good, a bit lighter than my dark blonde brows so it creates a bit of definition, but the brush is wide and flat and causes the product to get all over my skin around my brows. It ends up looking clumpy and then pulls out my actual brow hairs when I try to wash it off in the evenings. Will not be buying again!

I bought this to try instead of my usual brow cream/powder combo. This product comes in a tube like mascara with a flat wand applicator. The application is easy and my brows looked combed and tinted. My only issue is the product flakes off throughout the day and especially if you touch your brows. I don't like having chunks of makeup on my face if I accidentally touch my brow or even make a certain facial expression. My older method of using brow cream and powder looks good too and doesn't go anywhere. I will keep this product for my travel bag or for a quick evening out when I don't have the time to do my brows fully, but also won't be out long enough to have to worry about flaking. But I will not purchase it again
