 Officially a must-have! Apr 02, 2008
By T. M.
It took me a long time to get to this point, but I'll continue to buy this product as long as they make it. I have really fair eyebrows - annoyingly so - pencils and shadows go on badly, and even if I could find something that stayed put for the day, I really just don't have the time or patience to draw them every day. I wasn't sure I had enough brows to tint, but I bought the Godefroy medium brown eyebrow tint and it worked extremely well. I followed the instructions exactly - I had to go over the brows a few times, because I wasn't aggressive in the application of it (and I only left the tint on 1-2 minutes each time, checking and reapplying until they matched). It didn't stain my skin, wiped off easily, and went on lightly enough that it doesn't feel overly dramatic.
I was amazed after using the tint to find out that my natural brow shape was there all along and that I had plenty there to work with, despite fears that my brows might be too sparse. Now that they're tinted, no more guesswork into shaping, which was formerly impossible (you can't tweeze what you can't see)!
I would especially recommend this product to anyone who wants to take their brows from blonde to brown without the change appearing drastic.

Great product - so far Aug 29, 2008
By Hatebras

Wow,I now have VEB (visible eye brows)! Barring any nasty alergic reaction that hasn't hit me yet, I would highly recommond this product. I only just did my brows in the last hour, but so far, so good.
They look great and very natural in the medium brown. I've used Roux and Swiss-O-Par in the past, and they don't compare to this for cost, shelf life, results, or ease of application. With the other 2, Roux especially, I had to be EXTREMELY careful not to let the applicator come in contact with any skin while applying because it would instantly leave a very noticable and unremovable dark stain. Very hard for me, because my brows are somewhat sparse and my skin very fair. The Godefroy product will leave a slight residue on the skin if it comes in contact, but it is just barely visible and I expect that it will disappear after a couple of showers. I would not even mind if it didn't go away because it just makes my brows appear a little fuller. After testing it on my arm for staining, I felt comfortable applying it liberally to my very blonde brows in the shape I wanted my brows to appear.
A few tips:
1. I tossed the wax strips and instead just dyed my brows to the right shape, leaving hairs I didn't want seen un-dyed.
2. I used an angled eyebrow brush to apply the dye. Worked very well!
3. I used about one third of one capsule to do both my brows, and I went over them twice. There was plenty to work with.
So far, I'm extremely happy with this product. What remains to be seen is skin reaction if any, and how long the color lasts. I'll update this review if I find either of those 2 areas lacking.

Love this product May 15, 2010

I had used this product several years ago and loved it then was unable to find it again. Now it's back and I am very happy. I have very light, sparse eyebrows with some gray hair as well. I use this product and it darkens them to my very light brown hair color and does cover the gray. I would say that it doesn't last for 6 weeks but it doesn't take long to dye them, so it's no big deal. If you are looking for a lighter shade, I would suggest only leaving it on for about 30-45 seconds. The first time I looked like Groucho Marx. And I hadn't protected my surrounding skin so it was everywhere. It will dye your skin and it does last for a day or two. So make sure that you use something on the surrounding skin to protect it. I apply a thin layer of mineral oil with a Q-tip (baby oil is exactly the same, it just has fragrance added) and I use a small, stiff angled makeup brush to apply it. I don't care for the wooden applicators they give you. If it is too light, you can always do it again. And the amount of dye in the capsules can be divided up and you don't have to use a whole capsule at a time. I get at least twice as many applications this way. But like I said, my eyebrows are thin and sparse so you will have to evaluate it for yourself. I would recommend this product to anyone. I have sensitive skin and I have no reaction to the dye. Just be very careful that you do not mix it too thin and it drips. The last thing you want is dye dripping in your eye. That's why I prefer the brush over the stick. You can control it much easier.

great product, could be lighter Feb 14, 2010
By H. T. N.
i have been dying my hair blond for years and have almost non existent eyebrows, so when i discovered this product, i was very excited. it does a great job dying my eyebrows, however even the "light brown" color is pretty dark no matter how short of time i dye them. i usually look a bit silly for a day or two until the product settles in so i plan my dye jobs accordingly (over the weekend and not right before i leave the house).

I love this product! Jun 28, 2008
By Bethzz
I have been looking for an eyebrow dye for a while, and this product really gets the job done. My eyebrows have naturally gone from light blonde as a child to brown as a young adult to almost "invisible clear" hairs (those with the same know exactly what I mean!). From a distance of 5 feet, it appeared as though I had no brows at all. (They were so light). This product gave me the eyebrows I've been yearning for, and the best thing is that I've thrown my eyebrow pencils in the trash!!! Yay! I recommend it without hesitation!!!!
