Dupe Better Believe It! An Anastasia Beverley Hills Dipbrow dupe with Freedom Make up.

I'm relatively inexperienced when it comes to brow products, but doing my eyebrows is one of the few important routines for my daily make up. I'm currently using Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade, which I totally adore and you should all believe they hype. 
However, at £15 a pop, and mostly available online it's not the most accesible of products for people, especially those who are just starting out, on a budget, or who are a bit unsure. 

So imagine my excitement when randomly perusing my local Superdrug and I see a new make up section called Freedom Makeup. They aim to bring more professional products to customers at bargain prices. 

I spotted their eyebrow pomade and was immediately interested in it's £5 price tag.


The packaging is simple with it's monochrome design. I'm already seeing a lot of similarities with the ABH pomade.  Opening the box the pomade comes in a small, glass pot with a screw cap. The glass is quite heavy considering its size so it feels quite substantial.




I opted for the shade 'Chocolate'. The texture is thick and creamy, much like the ABH. I couldn't get a decent shot of the pomade shade on my camera so I'll include some swatches from the website.



Here's the Freedom Chocolate compared to the ABH Chocolate


Certainly slightly different, but not worlds apart. The Freedom version appears to be warmer.


Bear in mind I don't have the best brush (though I'm hoping Santa will be good to me this year) so my lines aren't very crisp. I am still a novice at this.


The product stays on amazingly and even when I wiped my finger cross my brow it barely smudged, if at all. 
This is a GREAT product and, in my opinion, a great dupe for Anastasia. At £5 its worth trying out with little to lose if you're not satisfied. 


Have you tried any Freedom make up?

  1. Ah, I've been wanting to try the Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade for ages AND I'm a total newbie when it comes to Makeup Revolution. I'll definitely save myself the pennies and try the dupe before splashing the cash!

  2. You beaut! I use the Anastasia brow pomade and love it. Before that I used an elf eyeliner pot and that smudged, which was shit. I've got the Vampy collection of lippies from Freedom and love them. xx
