If you’re looking for ways to give your brow a natural groom look or for something more feathery in look, then brow gel is your answer. While many people mistake brow gel for mascara just because of the similarity in the wand application tool that comes with it, brow gel is not mascara. Mascara is for eyelashes while brow gel is for your eyebrows.
To properly understand what brow gel is, brow gel formulas contain ingredients like polymers and waxes that help tame and shape brow hairs while holding them in place. They can either be tinted or clear, they can come in a strong waxy version known as a soap brow for a strong hold while the more subtle version is in a gel form with a light amount of hold. You can opt for any of these versions the option is up to you and depends on what you really what to achieve in your beauty look.
If you’re looking into more of achieving a boy feather brow, you’re advised to go for the soap brow, but if you’re looking to simply put your brow in place then the clear version will rescue you, and finally for a tamed but filled brow, then tinted.
The surprising and interesting thing about the innovative brow gels on the market right now, is that some contain synthetic fibers that can help give an illusion of fuller, thicker brows because the synthetic fibers help fill sparse areas in your brow. Genius! Don’t you think? The good thing about adding brow gel to your beauty routine is that you can easily skip filling your brows with a pencil and just go for the tinted version that tames the hair and add a little bit of colour that will look so natural, hence saving you a lot of time.
So what makes a good brow gel on the market right now? I believe finding a good brow gel is looking into the ones that are packed with skin-loving ingredients, something that will nourish your brow hair follicles. The ingredients range from, peptides, hyaluronic acid, keratin, vitamins, antioxidants, and protein that address every brow need from shedding to thinning, a brow gel that enhances growth that leads to fuller thicker brow hair, protects your brow follicles from free radicals, that protects your brow skin barrier by adding hydration e.t.c.
