Julie's review of Glossier Boy Brow Gel

Shade: Clear

I have been a fan of Boy Brow for years, and it's probably one of the products I was the most excited to get when we launched the brand at Space NK. I usually use the Brown shade but I thought I would give the Clear one a try, to really test the staying power of the gel. For context, I am very low maintenance when it comes to my brows as they are so thick and unruly, so I prefer the bushy trend and add very little product so this is absolutely perfect to inject a little bit of fluffiness - I really loved the clear version – no tack at all and felt like I could comb through and shape super easily.

One of the my favourite things about Boy Brow is that the staying power really lasts all day and I don't have to worry about reapplying throughout the say. I'd recommend this product to truly anyone, but especially to anyone who only has five minutes to get ready in the morning and wants to look like they've spent longer doing their brows.

As an OG fan of this product, I can safely say that I'll be repurchasing for as long as I can. If I have more time in the morning, I also like to fill my brows with the Boy Brow Arch Pencil.

Hanitra's review of Glossier Boy Brow Gel

Shade: Brown

When it comes to brows, I like a product that is very easy to use and will allow me to do my brows within seconds. When I first used Boy Brow, it did exactly that. The pigmentation is great and it really held my brows in place.

Towards the end of the day, the colour was still there but I could tell that the gel had lost a little bit of its staying power but it wasn’t anything drastic either. I’d recommend this to anyone who, like me, doesn’t have much time in the morning and needs to be out the door quickly. I think this is also a great product to keep in your bag at all times, in case you need to do any touch ups.

I also tested the new Glossier Boy Brow Arch pencil when it launched, and I think the two products actually pair really well together, especially for anyone who likes to achieve a bold, full-brow look.

The Verdict on Glossier Boy Brow

As one of the original Glossier makeup products, Boy Brow is one of those products that people will keep buying after they tried it.

The pros: Boy Brow is very to apply, keeps your eyebrows in place throughout the day and makes getting ready in the morning easier. It's perfect for those who don't have much time beofre they need to be out the door.

The cons: If you like something that gives a full look, it's best to use a brow pencil like the Boy Brow Arch before to really get into all the sparse areas of your brows.
