The Anastasia Brow Primer pencil is essentially a colourless wax pencil with a matte finish. It is intended to hold the brows in place and allow more colour to stick when filling in - but I only use it for the hold.

I have tried a clear mascara, but I don't like the shiny finish from the gel.

Can anyone suggest a Canadian (or non-american) product that would hold my brows in place with a matte finish?

I don't know why nobody is talking about this. We rightfully complain about products being reformulated and not being as good, the massive price increases and the lack of fun products. Why is nobody complaining about the fact that multiple companies are not currently selling LIPSTICK?!?!?! I was at Shoppers Drugmart today looking for lipstick. There wasn't much. I don't mean a bunch of lipstick was sold out. I mean lipstick was not part of the offerings. Essence is not selling lipstick. Annabelle is not selling lipstick. Revolution is not selling lipstick. Physican's Formula is not selling lipstick. I thibk Rimmel had a small selection. NYX is not selling lipstick. These companies are focusing on things like jelly glosses. Lipstick never stopped being popular. You're lucky if they have a bold liquid lipstick. WHERE IS THE LIPSTICK?!?!?! WTF?!?!?!
