Eyebrow gels have become an essential in many makeup routines, helping to shape, set, and enhance brows with ease.

With so many formulas on the market, it can be tricky to know which one will fit different styles—whether you prefer a natural finish or a bold laminated look. Here's a breakdown of brow gels I’ve tried, along with honest thoughts and ratings!

1. NYX Brow Glue

At first, this product wasn't a favorite. The brush felt too small, it dried too quickly, and sometimes left behind a white cast. It also didn't give me the fluffy effect I wanted in the beginning. However, after changing my brow routine to a softer, more natural style, it became a game-changer.

2. Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze

This one is still new in my routine, and I'm experimenting with it. The texture feels thick and a little heavy if too much is applied, which can make it tricky to manage. That said, it delivers a very strong hold that’s ideal for anyone looking to achieve a laminated brow effect. For softer, more natural brows, it takes more effort to balance the right amount of product.

3. Benefit 24-Hour Brow Setter

This gel has earned its place as a true staple. The dual-sided brush is incredibly versatile — one side lays brows flat for a sleek, laminated look, while the other side is great for fluffing and shaping. It holds brows all day without flaking or feeling sticky, making it a reliable choice for both natural and styled looks.

4. Lawless Creamy Brow Wax

A tinted option that works beautifully on minimal makeup days. It not only provides hold but also adds subtle color, which eliminates the need for extra brow products like pencils. Quick, practical, and effective, this gel is perfect when you're short on time but still want polished brows.

Each of these brow gels serves a different purpose, depending on the style you're aiming for. If you want an all-around reliable option, the Benefit 24-Hour Brow Setter is a standout. For those who like tinted formulas, Lawless is a time-saving pick. While NYX offers great value for natural looks, ABH offers strong hold with a laminated finish!
