Do you remember my affair with Raul? What a terrible mistake… Obviously, we weren’t right for each other. He knew it; I knew it, but when it ended, Benefit was there for me. Like a trusted friend, they had my back (and my brows). 🙂
That’s because Benefit knows brows. Their kick-ass brow kits, Brow Bar services and new partnership with Tweezerman promise to keep millions of eyebrows out of trouble.
Tweezerman for Benefit
The new four-piece Tweezerman for Benefit collection offers tools to tweeze, shape and curl your way out of beastly brow/lash oblivion!
- Tweezerman for Benefit Slant Tweezer ($25): a tweezer for day-to-day brow upkeep
- Tweezerman for Benefit Pointed Slant Tweezer ($30): a precision tweezer with a pointed tip for hard-to-reach hairs
- Tweezerman for Benefit Brow Shaping Brush ($12): a retractable travel comb for brow brushing
- Tweezerman for Benefit ProCurl Curler ($20): a lash curler to fit all eye shapes (includes three replacement pads)
Three of the four Tweezerman for Benefit tools
Aren’t the yellow and white tweezers the cutest?? 🙂 Find them and the other tools starting next week at Benefit boutiques, counters and Ulta stores (but not at Sephora), as well as benefitcosmetics.com as of April 5.
Benefit Pointed Slant Tweezer ($30)
Oh, and if you’re a frequent visitor to Benefit’s Brow Bars, you can get a close look at the new Tweezerman for Benefit tools because they’ll be used by all of the company’s aestheticians.
Fun facts about the Benefit Brow Bar…
- The first Brow Bar opened in 2003 at Macy’s Union Square in San Francisco
- Today there are 500 Brow Bars in 22 countries
- Somewhere around the globe, there’s a Benefit employee arching a customer’s brow every minute of every day
Tweezerman for Benefit ProCurl Curler ($20)
Tweezerman for Benefit Brow Shaping Brush ($12)
I’d look like this unfortunate fellow if it weren’t for my Tweezerman, so my excess facial hair and I can’t wait to give these a try (reviews coming soon). I’m all over it like frosting on red velvet cupcakes!
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S. FINALLY! Friday. 🙂 I’m still kinda recovering from my one beer last night (cheap date), LOL! I think I’ll just chill at home tonight and maybe rent a movie. Whatcha doin’?
P.P.S. If you’re new here, thank you for visiting. Makeup and Beauty Blog is a makeup blog with daily product reviews, beauty tips, giveaways and the random shenanigans of a crazy cat lady/makeup enthusiast named Karen (that’s me!). 🙂
marisol says
March 18th, 2010 at 7:23 pmHa! You are a cheap date. But nothing wrong with that. I am still recovering from drinking every day since Friday. Staying in tonight.
I was always surprised that Benefit didn’t sell their own (or another brand’s) tweezers especially at the beauty bars. I think that’s all they use. I was going to go tomorrow to the MV one but I may hold off until next week so I can check them out.,
Karen says
March 18th, 2010 at 9:19 pmYou’re a rockstar. If I was 23 I would totally have been able to hang with you!
What are you thinking about picking up at the MV store? I haven’t been there in forever.
marisol says
March 18th, 2010 at 9:33 pmI am 30 and barely hanging on today.
I am not sure. I have my gift card which i am going to use wisely. I was going to get my brows done and see what’s new. Anything you recommend?

Karen says
March 18th, 2010 at 9:37 pmDo you have Sugarbomb yet? The Powderazzi set (w/Hoola, Coralista and Dallas) is great too.
Ooh, and can’t forget about spring shadows! I really like Buns, Nice Melons and Mermaid.
Citrine says
March 18th, 2010 at 7:39 pmOh, the yellow checker board tweezer is so cute (although I have seen fancier tweezerman with metallic background and rose pattern in TJ maxx) but I will probably go with the plain Tweezerman since they are cheaper and come with more styles!
P.S. I think my eyebrows would look pretty scary without all those hair removal tools (I started to pluck them since I was in 4th grade and they never stopped growing…argh…)
Karen says
March 18th, 2010 at 9:17 pmYou started early! I didn’t start plucking ’till I was about 20. Did you know what you were doing, or did you have help from someone?
Citrine says
March 19th, 2010 at 6:18 amI was too chicken to (maybe I though I was so cool so there wasn’t any need to ask other on trivial matters like that) do so, I think I started using my dad’s razor (yeah…) first and then found my mom’s random tweezers because I swear my two brows were starting to join back then.
As a matter of fact, I did poke my eye with them…

March 18th, 2010 at 8:41 pmI was cleaning up my brows tonight and found my first gray eyebrow hair. I think I need Tabs to comfort me.
Karen says
March 18th, 2010 at 9:16 pmOh boy. That warrants a serious Tabby comforting sesh.
If only I could find a way to send kitty hugs over the internet…

I have a gazillion papers due this month and I haven’t even started.

March 18th, 2010 at 9:15 pmHi Shivotra,
Yikes, I certainly know the feeling of having deadlines looming. When will you be done?
shivotra says
March 18th, 2010 at 9:20 pmI’m done with my degree April 20th, 2010. I’m gonna be living in the library from now on. :/

March 18th, 2010 at 9:38 pmWOW! Shivotra, that’s a huge deal! Congrats… you are so close to the end! 🙂
shivotra says
March 18th, 2010 at 10:21 pmThanks hon. In the middle of it all, I never thought this day would come – really! But its getting closer. I’ll be so relieved once its all over. I won’t know what to do after though. haha 🙂

March 18th, 2010 at 9:16 pmHey Karen, too bad these are not sold at Sephora. There is no Ulta or Benefit counter close to where I live!
Karen says
March 18th, 2010 at 9:20 pmHi Ana V,
If you can hold off ’till April you’ll be able to pick ’em up online. 🙂
Rae says
March 18th, 2010 at 9:18 pmAww, those *are* really cute! I do still love my plain stainless steel Tweezermans, though — they’re very sleek 😛

Karen says
March 18th, 2010 at 9:20 pmYeah, those do have a certain efficient charm to them!
Sally says
March 18th, 2010 at 9:39 pmOh, these are so cute! I want :]
I must admit, every time I see that “Full Disclosure” panel, a little part of me is über jealous of your job!
Karen says
March 18th, 2010 at 9:56 pmOoh, girl, you might change your mind if you knew how many gray hairs it took to get that panel.

March 19th, 2010 at 5:17 amThose are the perfect accompaniment to the Benefit Browzings!!! And they are very very cute too!
h. says
March 19th, 2010 at 5:54 amthis is awesome! i definitely want to check everything out real-time. i would so buy a tweezer, but 2 weeks ago my local department store had tweezerman tweezers for 50% off! got them for $17 rather than $30. i was so pleased. i’ve gotta say, they are brilliant tweezers (and i got the zebra print ones lol)
cheers!

Lorena says
March 19th, 2010 at 6:40 amI’ve never gotten any Tweezerman tweezers since the price has always turned me off (being on a student budget has its drawbacks >___<) but are these tweezers REALLY that much better? Is it the way its shaped?? I mean, there's got to be a reason for the outrageous price!
gio says
March 19th, 2010 at 7:11 amI want them, they’re so cute!

March 19th, 2010 at 9:03 amOh my goodness, Karen. I am right there with you. I had a pretty hefty (for me) number of libations on St. Patty’s (ha!) and it took me until today to recover. I felt so ill all day yesterday, so I hit the powerade pretty hard. I’m only 22, but I never drink, so when I do, I feel it. Woof. Hope you get to feeling better soon! Hydrate and be good to yourself!

lexi says
March 19th, 2010 at 9:46 amIt’s really hard for me to leave my current brow waxer. She’s been doing my brows for years and it only costs me $15! She does makes mistakes now and then causing me to go about a month before my next waxing just to grow out the parts she has butchered on me. I do like the tweezers – I may have to pick up a pair.
Also, I think you mentioned you wax your own upper lip? What kind of wax do you use? I am thinking of doing this on my own to save myself $10. I’m just afraid of getting some kind of allergic reaction to whatever brand I end up buying.

March 19th, 2010 at 1:09 pmHow does that curler compared to Shu Uemura’s?

Toni says
March 20th, 2010 at 9:42 amCute Tweezerman items! I really want to visit a brow bar, but my Sephora and Ulta don’t have them. I tried finding locations in my area, but the Benefit site only shows locations that sell their products. Or maybe I’m not searching correctly. Thanks for sharing this with us, because I really need brow help. My brows grow differently and in different planes on my face, so it makes it hard to get eye makeup to look even.
My hubby hasb been gone all week, so he has my son today and my daughter is at acting class. I am taking myself out into the wonderful sunshine (and short sleeve weather) and going shopping. I think I’ve given up my no-buy for Lent, so Sephora here I come! We’ll just hang out tonight and maybe eat supper on the patio and watch some March Madness games. I’m ahead of hubby in the brackets right now!
