For those of you who use a tinted eyebrow gel, which brand is your favorite ad why?  Cost is not a factor; wearability is.  Let's hear it!

Hi @SurferWife 

 

I use two eyebrow gels and like both of them. I've been using the NYX Thick it Stick it the most recently but probably because it's my newest eyebrow gel. The other one is, of course, Benefit's Gemmie Brow.  The NYX product is thicker and some have issues with applying it.  I think maybe the NYX has a little more staying powe but not by much.  Keep in mind I don't have long days at the office.  I put makeup on to go to Walmart or out to eat or to visit family.  

What eyebrow product do you use?

I use NYX , but not the new thickening one I tried it and didn't like it. I use the regular NYX one I have been using this one for years. I have gray in my eyebrows and it covers it nicely. Inexpensive and it  works.

i've been using the benefit microfilling pens. they seem to stay on, the longest of any i've tried. i have grays to cover and it seems to work. I think hsn has minis you could try. i always go a shade lighter than recommeded, that's just my comfort level.

@SurferWife    Rarely make a big deal with my brows, lucky in that department for now. I usually just set with the soap method.

 

When I do fill in and set, I use ABH Medium brow pencil with their powder duo first. I set with Gimme brow in #3.

@SurferWife   I found two brands that I use every day I do my brows (one or the other, not both together). One brand I get here for a mere $16.00 called Full Brow 3-in-one eyebrow fiber. This one is so easy to use, it's biuldable too. The other is from a site called 'mommy makeup'. This one is great too, my problem now is that they changed their brush applicator, made it smaller than the original brush which was bigger, longer. This brand is still a great one. I don't use or try any other brnads, so tired of doing that and it turns pricey to try and not be pleased.

I just can't get the hang of gel brow colors-----for me, they always clump up and miss spots that I go over again then the spots where the color does take, gets way too dark---have tried the pricy ones and the cheap ones--I have tossed them all and use pencils.

I like a number of them. The NYX eyebrow mascara, I think it may have been discontinued, the ELF Wow Brow and the Benefit Gimme Brow. I also use the Elf Clear Brow Gel on occasion, it eventually becomes colored as it picks up what is in my brows for color!
