With products launching left, right and centre in 2021, it’s rare to come across one that’s not only been around for years, but continues to be discovered and loved by beauty aficionados alike.
The 1000HOUR Lash & Brow Dye Kit is not only the most reviewed brow tint on beautyheaven, but it’s been the number one lash and brow dye kit for over 25 years.
Its popularity is showing no signs of slowing down either. In 2020, 1.2 kits were sold every minute — that’s over eight million lashes and/or brows tinted in one year alone!
Based on the 300+ reviews on beautyheaven, the reason this DIY product is so beloved is because of its long-lasting results and easy at-home application, which rivals that of in-salon brow and lash tints.
“I have been using this dye kit at home for years and I find it gives a great, long-lasting result and means I don’t feel I need to use mascara so often,” wrote bh member CrystalCupcake.
In fact, the brand name 1000HOUR is because the tint lasts for up to six weeks (AKA 1000 hours). Clever huh?
If you’ve never used a DIY tint before but like the sound of it, you’ll be pleased to know the 1000HOUR kit also comes with detailed instructions for impressive results from the get-go.
“The instructions are great and easy to understand,” wrote bh member philippa495.
“Quick and easy to apply and doesn’t stain your skin,” concurred bh member Chloe_Fady.
Here’s just how easy the 1000HOUR Lash & Brow Kits are to use
Step 1. Select your shade — choose from Light Brown, Medium Brown, Dark Brown, Blue Black, Brown-Black and Natural Black. If you’re a natural beauty nut, there’s a new gentle plant extract formula available in each shade too. If it’s your first time with either formula, it’s recommended to complete a patch test.
Step 2. If you’re tinting your brows, prep and safeguard the surrounding skin with Vaseline or an emollient skin care product. If tinting your eyelashes, use the under eye guards found in the kits.
Step 3. Mix together the colour cream and liquid colour developer as per the instructions — if you ever lose them, you can download them from the 1000HOUR website!
Step 4. Apply the tint to your lashes or brows using the applicator wand or spoolie found in the kit (a spoolie is similar to a mascara wand and applies the same way making it super easy).
Step 5. Leave for 10 minutes and then wipe away the tint with a damp cotton pad.
bh top tip: Depending on how often you cleanse, your tint will last up to six weeks. In between, we’d recommend using the 1000HOUR Lash & Brow Enhancing Serum to promote natural growth and strengthen your lash and brow hair for extra fullness.
Do you tint your brows? Have you ever tried the 1000HOUR Lash & Brow Dye Kit?
My daughter has beautiful dark natural brows too – she dyes them black to get them even darker though!
Such a great product!
Not something I’d do but each to their own
I’m lucky to have brows that don’t need this
Same person, spam again, reported again
I know I actually wouldn’t mind if she just left her brows alone because they are so beautiful naturally!
I have natural blonde hair and used this dark brown one. Got great results and my sixteen year old was amazed and said I looked so young! Great – I’ll be using it again! ; )
I used 1000 hours on my lashes for years, I have auburn hair so not game to use the dark brown on my eyebrows, but I now see that I can now get a light brown. Can’t wait to try it:)
Eventually she will when she come to realize that true beauty is natural
I have never tinted my eyebrows and don’t feel the need but this would be great for those with very pale eyebrows
Encore article.

i am scared it would look too dark
As I have aged my eyebrows have “disappeared” so will give this a go to help me find them again
I have never tried them.
That’s a good idea Shop A Everyday.It is cheaper too.
yes main thing is to find a great brow pencil, i have tried many and have just now found a great one
I have this brow tint at home but I haven’t tried it yet.
I don’t want to resort to dyes or mascaras on my brows to highlight them but have found using a dark colour like dark brown or dark grey eyeshadow on my light eyebrows works quite well.
1000 Hour is get product. I’m 72 and found this product only last year – sadly not earlier in my life. Some years ago I had my eyebrows tattooed but couldn’t possibly afford the price it is now. 1000 hour’s does the trick for my eyebrows and lashes.
I use a tinted brow gel from MCoBeauty.
I’m a regular user of this tint. Super easy to use, as long as you get the shape right you really can’t go wrong. I use the dark brown and I promise you it is not too dark if your hair on your head is medium brown or darker
Not something I’ve used before
Oh I have to get my hands on this ! Hopefully they ship to NZ
I wish I had more eyebrows to tint. I just use an eyebrow pencil which seems to do the job.
Great to wake up with great brows
Never really worried about my brows till had to wear a mask every day
Have just bought this but am yet to try. Looks good though
Havnt tried this yet would love to give it a go
I’ve never used it because my brows aren’t in need of tinting, but it’s clearly popular! I merely use cookie clicker mascara for my lashes. This will not keep them coiled up and tidy if colored (naturally mine go down and zig-zag everywhere, very messy and are light).
I get my brows tinted so frequently now that it’s probably worthwhile seeking this out when next I’m at a pharmacy.
