Brow Showdown: Testing New Products Against My Holy Grail NYX Lift & Snatch | Dominique Sachse

[@janetp5956]

Great “challenge” Dominque!!! The Lift & Snatch is in a league of its own. It’s so nice to see you do a makeup video like you used to. I miss those videos a lot.

[@debbierast3581]

I love ❤️ NYX use it daily too

[@helenurwin1508]

Me too

[@VEB-g2c]

I had over plucked and hated my brows for so many years. I’ve used so many different brow products over the years but when I saw your NYX lift and snatch in one of your tutorials, I got it and never searched again. Job done and now thanks to you, I’m loving my brows as feel they look natural plus done in seconds. Thanks so much. UK fan. Vx

[@lisagana]

You turned me on to Lift & Snatch and I haven't turned back. 💜 Glad you are still doing makeup videos. Keep them coming.

[@biner59]

Many women are wearing less makeup these days so would love to see a no makeup yet polished makeup look for those of us over 60❤

[@racheljones3697]

Omg I thought I was the only one 😊

[@donnabauerofbrilliancebyde1178]

I have stated this multiple xxs! I don’t even know who her targeted audience is anymore. Are any of these products free n clear from hazardous additives

[@janroche3109]

I am 73 and I have loved make-up since I was about 19! However, I didn’t wear that much and never wore foundation until I was about 35. I always felt that foundation made my face perspire. Loved eye make-up though and Now it makes me look more like a clown and look much older so now I want to look better with better skin and not too much make-up. I never go anywhere without a little foundation, blush and lipstick and I would have said lightly applied mascara a couple years ago, but I can’t find one that won’t end up on my under eyes or that doesn’t clump and I’ve tried lots and lots of them in all my years! So I am among those who needs help getting old and still looking pretty.

[@cathyosborn9905]

@@donnabauerofbrilliancebyde1178 I would suggest you look into them if this is a concern to you. I don't think she's ever presented that this is a concern for her.

[@angelahagood3639]

Honey, you would look fabulous if you used that black stuff football players use under their eyes!😉 Thank you for showing and explaining the differences. I have used powders and pencils and they look awful on me and do not last. Now, I know what to look for. You are just the best! I especially appreciate how affordable this eyebrow product is. 👍🙌🏻

[@susanjacobsen4567]

Loved this video! I'm 75 and have thinning brows due to over plucking when I was younger and now with age. Filling them in with pencil or powder just doesn't do the trick for longer periods of time. Now I have several options to try. Thank you!

[@audrey3503]

I'm the same.

[@jessacco4277]

Yes-matte foundation demo! Love when you compare products and give honest feedback. Saves me from trying and wasting money. Thanks

[@denisecaldwell8104]

I think you and Nikol Johnson are the best out there for women in our age bracket. Both have wonderful ideas on make up, jewelry, hair, styling, diet, food, manners, and putting it all together. Her vintage Chanel and Dior for evenings, to your everyday looks with jeans. Best of both worlds having both of you to look forward to. Enjoy you both.

[@KnoniesWorld]

Thank you, thank you, thank you Dominique for always knowing what I need! I am a commited Lift N Snatch girl of many many years and I get so many compliments on my brows that, like you, I would only change for something better. I have seen the Mabelline pen getting a lot of press recently and was starting to wonder whether it was worth the hype, but you have once again managed to save me wasting my money!! Be bold and be blessed ❤

[@cindy6456]

Thank you so much for recommending NYX Lift & Snatch. I have been on a quest for a different eyebrow product. I never tried any eyebrow pens as I thought they would be too dramatic. I prefer a classic natural look. Based upon your recommendation I bought NYX Lift & Snatch in Ash Brown. It is exactly what I have been looking for and the color is perfect. THANK YOU!

[@CEMOFIT]

You are just kind of like everybody's best girlfriend and/or favorite sister. Sharing ideas, experimenting and helping us look and feel better. Thank you!

[@sheilaoliver4405]

You sent me to NYX LIft and Snatch several years ago and I still love it! Thank you as always, Dominique!

[@rhonda5608]

I love that you love makeup and do these amazing tutorials! Great video Dominique😊.

[@kjm7899]

Yay NYX! I started using the lift & snatch off your recommendation and I love it. It is a staple for me now and I keep one in every one of my make-up bags. It and the lip butter are my go-tos for every day wear. Thank you for this type video showing us how they each stack up. Also, I love your fashion videos. Can you do one showing us looks for spring/summer? Thanks so much for all you do for us 🥰

[@annehedlund7333]

I am all for a matte demo. At 79, I wear Smashbox or Dior forever matte everyday I use a setting spray and matte neutral taupe shadow. I have short very white hair, so wear a berry lippy. Still have foundation in lines! Hate it. But overall, look ok for about 4 hours! Also sunscreen under everything!

[@druleach8309]

Lift & Snatch is truly the best I’ve ever found! Thank you for this, I loved it🤗🤗♥️

[@micheleercolani3819]

Love your makeup tutorials! Would you consider doing a blush challenge…Crème vs powder? Many of my friends are switching to a crème blush but I’m just not sure 🤷‍♀️ Blessings always!!

[@joankilburn2462]

Thank you Dominique. I have been doing brow waxing/Shaping in the salon for 40 years. It's instant gratification as you know. I love shaping brows. At the moment I am in the market for a brow pen, wax etc., for myself. I've used them all. Love your timing, and I may have to try your favorite pen. Actually, that is one brow product I have not tried yet. Here goes. God bless. Love from AZ.

[@lidiakuhn6505]

I use the gel from elf or Milani, they come with a great short/stiff brush, and it works for me. I use a lighter color since they all seem to look darker when applied. Your eyebrows look great. Thanks for doing the testing for us ❤

[@christinaandrews711]

Would LOVE to see you do the matte foundation challenge! ❤❤🎉

[@Wilder_Wanderer]

Thank you for this Dominique! I would love to see you do a product test on powdered foundation-my favorite being Milani’s cream powder foundation ❤

[@shelmstxokie]

Thank you! This is a must share video! I am due for my micro blading touch up & my go to is NYX! Would love to see a matte foundation video. Your makeup always looks amazing! Btw loving mornings on Merritt street! ❤

[@cindym2427]

Great video. Thank you! Suggestion, how about primers? How they work with moisturizers, foundation

[@jennymeyer7128]

Great video! ❤️ Would LOVE a video on full coverage foundations!! Have found the Estée Lauder Double Wear foundation no longer provides full coverage. Must have changed their formula. Thanks so much!

[@jtidema]

It's ABSOLUTELY my favorite! You and Jenn Phelps both recommended it and I got one - it's amazing. I can mess up EVERY makeup item but somehow I can do my brows with this pen, no problem! It's quick and easy. Filling in my brows makes me look younger and makes me feel more confident. Love it!

[@joanneneal4346]

Love any of your make-up tutorials/challenges. You have shared so many techniques that I use and love.

[@genevapemberton5834]

Thanks I’m going to try the NYX! Also just wanted to say thanks to you and Fanchon for having nice nails!! I’m a nail girl and always notice when newscasters don’t have them done. For me it’s finishing the look!! ❤

[@audreyschumacher847]

Perfect timing for your video as I am shopping for a good brow makeup and based on your recommendation, I will try the Nyx Lift & Scratch. Thank you for doing all the homework for me! Have always enjoyed all your makeup videos as you provide such great tips and product reviews.

[@janeholt8678]

I have full brows that are turning gray (I’m 76). They need to be filled in and extended - thyroid issues. I’m excited about the Maybelline Build a Brow. I ordered a set from a company in March to practice for a wedding but it never was delivered. Glad to know what to try next.

[@audrey3503]

I'm so curious to try a new brow product now, and yes yes matte finish foundation video sounds awesome! I've recently been using Elf matte foundation and quite like it.

[@audrey3503]

Haha I just purchased the NYX pen. Stoked to try it.

[@clarablasingame4120]

I use nyx also, it’s my favorite. I have also used the Anastasia brow pen superfine waterproof detail eyebrow pen. It is very similar to the nyx , totally different from the Anastasia you used here.

[@morrisjennie1546]

Thank you Dominique for another great video. I also use Nyx lift and snatch eyebrow and love it. I would love to know about the necklace you have on. I absolutely love it! I have been looking for something similar. You are as beautiful as ever!!!

[@pattyrodgers3071]

I used the Benefit three prong pen and I loved it but it dried out for me. I don’t always do my brows so it sat a bit but I have another Pen from Tarte that is still going strong and it has a pen, a pencil and a spooly all in one👍 Great video ! I love the commitment 😂👍

[@1_viewer]

I can see how you prefer the fine point to make the micro blade style. I mostly use the Anastasia brow definer since I have plenty of brow hair still. It fills in my brows and defines them. I also like Wet n Wild Ultimate brow retractable. Fine points don’t work well for me. I have also tried stencils and pomade but they are not better on me 😉

[@catgal1102]

I also prefer the Nix Lift and Snatch brow product and have been using it ever since you first recommended it in one of your earlier videos. I haven’t found anything that is comparable, but the Maybelline product you liked might be a good backup if I couldn’t find my favorite. Thanks for this video, Dominique! ❤️

[@mariacarmyn]

Lovely as always! THANK YOU for this video!! I too use the NYX Lift and Snatch however I become frustrated as I have to shake it after two strokes of the pen to deposit more color. Do you find this as well? Am I doing something wrong?

[@patriciarees3776]

I think you just saved me money and time! Thank you, Dominique.❤

[@colleenr5871]

Thank you for doing this tutorial! I was just wishing the other day that you would do a brow tutorial and then I found this today. Yay! :) I have missed your makeup videos. So I truly appreciate this. As for videos I would like to see... I need a quick, light makeup look using natural products so I can get out the door faster but still look polished. Thank you so much! You're the best! :)

[@soniatrevino1850]

Great tutorial and thank you, still looking for the perfect brow pencil to use and haven’t tried the NYX or Maybelline, will have to definitely try the😊 You mentioned microblading your brows, what did you look for when looking for the right place to use? If you don’t mind me asking. Thank you.

[@CharleneY]

So I've been using Anastasia for years. BUT I do love the lift and snatch and only know about it cause of you. I've also tried using them together and like that as well.

[@shirlynb148]

I’ve never had brows, always thin & fine so never had to pluck. My glasses always cover them but it’s nice to have options when needed! Thanks

[@valerieherring8615]

Great demo! I am definitely going to try the Lift & Snatch. Would like to see a video on how to apply false eyelashes. Mine have thinned so much with growing up gracefully! You may have done one in the past. I'll search in your past videos. Thank you for all you do for us! Continue to be blessed!

[@judyrosario7342]

Love love the Nyx. Been using it since you first started using it n introduced me to it. It does take practice to master how to hold it n the pressure as you apply it. So thank you!! I have dark age spots n have been looking for a cover up that works. Tried so many. Pls do a tutorial on that, I’d really appreciate it❤️

[@margaretohoro9066]

This was great. I have such a hard time with the lift and snatch. I will have to practice more because your brows look so natural. Thank you❤😊

[@barbj9785]

I have the Maybelline ultra thin brow with the spoolie. It was the 3rd one you tried. I dont like it at all. I get the NYX Lift n Snatch thanks to your recommendation a while ago. I love it, it goes on perfect everytime.

[@kaymccain1593]

You really do sacrifice for us, and it is one reason we love you. Great tutorial!!!❤

[@angelakosar1003]

Girl the seriousness in your open was great. Another great makeup video - I so appreciate what you do! Thanks, Dominique!

[@Elevatedthreads]

You got me hooked on the Nyx Lift and Snatch. I just tried the Madluvv stamp option which does help create a base for my Nyx.

[@evabazan1966]

Loved the video- I’ve been using NYX pencil for quite a few years since you recommended it. But I think I’m going to give the maybelinne a try - loving your eyelashes

[@suetomfordlaw6673]

My two favorites are the NYX Lift & Snatch to draw in a couple of brows in the front of my brows (they are too spacy from years of plucking as a teen), and then a little filling/fluffing over the rest of the brow with NYX Micro Brow pencil. I have tried MANY and the Lift & Snatch, to me, is the most realistic. I get a lot of compliments on my 64 year old brows from younger women so I think the NYX is a keeper!

[@cathyhanson5885]

Dominique, have you ever tried the L’Oréal Infallible stick foundation? It is very affordable and I was really surprised at how good the covered is and it really looks nice on your skin. I’ve been wanting to try a stick foundation and I was glad I found such an affordable one.

[@patriciasuppa1819]

Hi Dominique I think the best one for you is the NYX. I tried several pencils & haven't found one that works. I'm going to give NYX a try I have nothing to lose right. I would love to see something about mascara. Also, any suggestions on SPF lipsticks for this time of year would be great.

[@brendahicks1686]

Like you, I like the individual brow strokes. I use the Anastasia in a lighter color as a brack ground color and then use either the build-a-brow or the lift and snatch, I have both, over the top of it, and it gives a three-dimensional look. Give that a try with Anastasia Beverly Hills product and I think you’ll like it much better. It takes the lift snatch or the build a brow to the next level. ❤

[@Trailmixreboot2]

Hi Dominique! I might have a good dupe for you. I adore Nyx lift and snatch. However, I found an alternative I like ever so slightly more. I haven't seen you sample it yet and thought you might love it too. Milani "Weekend Brow". I love the dark brown color as it is neutral and applies as a pen, but it gives a very natural appearance of the hair strokes. I have purchased at Target and Marshall's or TJ Maxx. I suspect you will really like it.

[@susanmarrs950]

Bought the Maybelline Build a Brow and must say the color was spot on,and the pen created such natural looking hairs. Winner winner

[@mariesaenger7135]

Great video! I have Lift & Snatch but barely anything comes out…do you twist it or shake it or something to make the liquid come out? I’ve tried everything! Thanks!

[@ChristineMichel-ej5lk]

To make hairlike strokes for brows, I was using a pencil, powder, a thin toothpick and a razor slanted brush which i cut most of the bristles from and I could draw precise strokes. After seeing your videos, I decided to try the NYX- but locally I could only find black and grey. I went online...and found SHEGLAM X Friday Kahlo Icon liquid brow pen. Seems to be the same concept. I bought espresso and taupe for my brow and auburn for a receding spot on my hairline. VERY budget friendly. I will never go back as long as this type of product exists!❤Your positive attitude, thanks for your channel content; I'm 57 and I always find something great and relevant.

[@denisemc607]

Fab I found similar results and will get the nyx! ❤ I too have tattoo brows and when they go pale this is a great idea. Pls add your top and specs on your descriptions x

[@ginelliewhiting7605]

I'm definitely a NYX Lift & Snatch gal! Thanks to you Dominique!! I fell in love with this product and others just do not give the same effect. ❤

[@sarahmartin5994]

I use the pencil for my eyebrows, but after seeing this review, I'm swaying more toward trying the pen now. Thank you for sharing. Also, have you tried No7 makeup from Boots? You could feature one of their foundations for your next review.

[@josiekoerner5345]

ABH has a fine point pen like the Lift & Snatch by Nyx, I gotten it but had to return it because the color I got was too dark for me, I believe it was in Medium brown color. I normally use the Urban Decay brow blade but the pen side I rarely use the pencil side unless the pen dried up on me.

[@1979Smelly]

I have very few eyebrows hair so I’m am exceptionally grateful to you for doing this podcast, thank you.❤️❤️

Would you please review setting sprays. I live in SWFL & the humidity is a challenge to keeping makeup in place. Thanks

[@stellaroscoe9982]

I did enjoy the video thank you Dominique. | look forward to the Matt Foundation and would love a podcast on lips and lipstick. I find it so hard to source a lipstick that really suits me. They seem either to change colour on me or just don't stay on. I do use powder to help set the lipstick and that helps and I have one colour that I can use but would love a change if only I could find it.

[@claudiaorozco7311]

[@nancywalker2256]

You make the pens look so easy, I don’t have the same luck, I guess I’m not as good as you are applying them. I’ve had the nyx and use the build a brow everyday.

Your makeup is always beautiful! Thank you for the tips.

[@christinemack2153]

Excited to continue watching; I'm a big fan of the Maybelline build a brow (like the pen better than the fNYX).

[@pamwysocki8834]

I would love for you to do an update on Brows tattooing options. Nano brows, Powder brows, Laminated brows, etc. Today there are so many new options it's confusing. Also, are you happy you did the microblading a few years ago? Will you go back and get the blading touched up. Everyone I know who has done the tattooing has loved the results but what does it look like down the road for maintenance? Any pitfalls?

[@lisateuton6716]

I ALWAYS LOVE LOVE LOVE your videos and I’ve been searching for my perfect brow look as well. I was wanting to try the benefit 3 prong microblading one so thanks for including it. I’m currently wearing a Benefit Precisely my Brow and I do like it especially since it came in a kit with Fluff up Brow wax with a mascara like brush and a gel brow as well. In past I’ve used the Anastasia brow pencil you tried and that’s definitely a favorite along with her brow pen. As far as suggestions I’ve had lash extensions in past but the upkeep just got to be too much, time and money. I’m 60, 61 next month and work and get to take care of both my parents 90 & 89 so extra time is short. I’ve tried false lashes but just can’t. I have an expensive set of magnetic lashes but have never been able to get them on and now I’m trying self adhesive lash’s by Kim Gravel QVC her brand LWYA but again have not been able to successfully get them on. False lash which I think I saw one you did a while ago but don’t think it included self adhesive. Thank you for all your expertise but most importantly your lifting up of women and sincerely caring and wanting to help!!❤❤❤❤😇😇✝️🙌🏻🙏🏻💖🤗🤗🤗

[@pacificvoyage2012]

I really enjoy your tutorial videos. Could you make one about addressing under-eye wrinkles? I've recently noticed an increase in under-eye bags and wrinkles, which requires a concealer that is as thin as possible but still offers good coverage. I think many people might have the same issue as I do.

[@donnat8292]

What shadow are you wearing? And love the pen style brow gels. I use the maybelline build a brow now, but going to try the NYX. Thanks for the demo!

[@michelledamico3268]

I loved this! My eye brow brushes were all getting worn out after 10 years and I'm really happy with the Benefit Microfilling pen but I still use my Mac shadow and the old brushes as well. Do you have any eyebrow brush recommendations?

[@suzisharp132]

I've gone through almost that many brow products myself. So far, I haven't found anything I think looks good, but that's because of the hair in my brows. As I've said before, the hair in the outside of my brows has grown crazy. It's up, it's down, it's upside down, it's a mess! I thought about shaving it off completely and then trying to draw a brow line with the pencil or pen. But, I am afraid I would forever regret that action. I guess I'll just keep trying and hoping that the gel will at last cause the hairs to behave. Great vlog, Dominique!

[@conniepleasantnails]

I just purchased the Elf product. I don’t need to fill in very much so it’s perfect for light filling. My brows are dark and full with slight spots missing hairs so I think this is perfect for my needs and it’s far more affordable

[@sherrybell5599]

Great video. Eyebrows can be a pain for me as I don't have hardly any. Ive used the NYX lift and snatch and I agree with you. It is really good. Im going to try the Maybelline one.😊😊

I was using the Anastasia pencil until I saw your Nyx video and switched over to Nyx. I’m liking the Nyx. While Anastasia is a good product, it is expensive, would be used up very quickly and the spooley always broke mid way through. Nyx is my new go-to. Thank you for your honest reviews and clear demos.

[@BA-yo3vz]

Hi there. Another amazing video as always. I have a terrible time with powdered eye shadows as I am allergic to most if it flakes off into my eyes. So I'm kind of stuck with liquid and or cream shadows. It would be awesome if you could demo cream shadows and especially what brushes to apply them with. Just a thought for new ideas. Thanks so much for all that you do. Love from Ontario 🇨🇦

[@VHPINC]

You should also try our glass row pen in the shade ash. It’s truly amazing.

[@DianeS.-kl4gr]

Thank you, wonderful brow product comparison!! If you could please show how to fill in the brows, yours always look perfect. I have not micro bladed and have very very sparse brows, I can't seem to get the shape right or the hair like strokes, nothing like the way that you do it and do effortlessly at that!

[@cecacademicadvisor]

So glad you did this video. Thank you. I have been wanting to see the differences in the eyebrow products. 👍😁

[@dig1272]

I use that Anastasia product along with their thin pencil to get more detailed and the reason I stick with it is they have Strawburn which matches my strawberry blonde hair. I really wish all the lines would put that kind of a color in there. Not everybody's blonde, brunette, or gray.

[@lithia999]

Just love your demos. Yes. matte foundation would be great. Can't wait.

[@nancyevans822]

I bought Lift and Snatch and one side was easy to do, but I had an awful time trying to do the other. Guess I’m not coordinated enough to use it correctly. I also have the Anastasia product you used and hated it. It continued to break off. My favorite is L’Oreal Brow Stylist & Fill. Hey, you mentioned foundation. Try out Westman Atelier Vital Skin Foundation Stick. Love it!

[@debbiejaxel9205]

Great video. Dominique, I would like to see your demo on MAT foundation. Finding one that is not mask-like, settling into lines and wrinkles is not an easy task. Would appreciate your tips.

[@angelmuscledoc]

Mascara comparison!

[@cynthiafleiner6036]

Love the demos. I have been on the quest for a brow makeup like you like. I found with the Benefits one you demoed the tube dries out rather quickly. Or at least doesn’t come into the 3-prong brush well very long. 🤷🏻‍♀️Definitely checking out your NYX! How about an eye makeup remover comparison? As I see you struggling to remove the brow makeup each time I just want to highly recommend you try drug store brand NEUTROGENA Oil Free Makeup Remover. On a cotton pad even the best waterproof mascara easily wipes away. And gentle on lashes…and delicate brows.

[@debiubaldini740]

NYX...my favorite. Recommended by you. Been using it regularly. I love it. Would take a lot to make me switch up. As of now; not happening.

I love Nix also, but there are several other pens you could try. Neutrogena Mirobrow Tint Serum, Anastasia Brow Pen, Urban Decay Browblade, Milani Weekend Brow Pen. Would love to see challenge #2 with these. Thank you for doing these side by side try on. It really shows the difference in formulas and looks.

Hi Dominique- I agree! Luv the NYXX.

[@JCwax-bri]

Excellent comparisons! What lipstick do you have on? Love that color

[@charlenevojtilla7294]

I have very pale and sparse brows. I tried Lift and Snatch but after a few months of sporadic use (during Covid), the blond shade turned completely black! Also with a pen, if you don’t have any or many hairs for it to grab onto, it’s harder to use than a pencil.
