Eyes are the windows to the soul but let’s not pretend that eyebrows aren’t just as important. The perfect brow (ahem, Zendaya) isn’t birthed overnight; it takes a lot of training, threading or waxing, and an arduous search for the perfect brow gel.
“Eyebrow gel is the easiest way to tame brows and make them look fuller and groomed,” says makeup artist Tasha Brown, who works with Yara Shahidi, Logan Browning, and Maggie Betts. “I use clear brows gel and brush brows upwards and out for basic grooming. My go-to technique is to use a brow powder and create small, hair-like strokes in the direction the hair grows in the brows. Then I finish with a generous coating of tinted brow gel for a clean, believable effect.”
Like many beauty lovers, her favorite gel is none other than the cult-favorite Glossier Brow Boy. Ahead, Boy Brow and 19 other gels that will keep your brow game strong.
