Model Co - Lash & Brow - Growth Stimulator



Yep, another brow growing attempt! But this time, I am the guinea pig XD

The instructions are to apply it once nightly for 28 days. 
So here are the before and after shots:



As I used it, I felt my brows looked better and thought they were growing. 
But looking at the photos, I can't see any significant difference.
The benefits I perceived were most likely from the serum lining my eyebrow hair up and making them a little darker/thicker because they had the serum on them.

I liked how the serum was translucent, it make it look like it contained more (as opposed to the Lacura version which was clear).



It had a spicy/clinical smell, which was faint.

I really liked the packaging, a sleek silver bullet with a good weight to it.

But at the end of the day, it didn't work.
You would get the same benefit from buying a (no-doubt cheaper) lash gel.


Price: 2/5 ($24.oo for 7 mL)
Scent: 1/5
Effectiveness: 1/5

Masquerade! - My Scheming - Q10 & Royal Jelly Double Lifting Mask

This mask covers the neck as well as the face, which is fun.
It smells mildly spicy and fruity, but it is faint.
