If you suffer from wild eyebrows, you aren’t alone. There are many of us who struggle to keep our brows in place, even right after we had them done at the salon. So, what can you do besides shave them off ala Lady Gaga or live with the wild creatures that call your face home? Don’t look like Statler from the muppets, let me help!
Use eyebrow gels
You have probably seen these before, but they are usually advertised as a way to fill in thin brows. These gels are usually colored to help make your eyebrows more prominent or to help chase away the grays. But if your problem is wild eyebrows, more color may not be what you need.
In this case, seek out clear eyebrow gels. These gels add no color, though they may slightly darken your brows; however, this will be imperceptible to anyone besides yourself. What they do is allow you to take and shape your brows so they do not appear so wild, making it easy to get a more polished look. And if you do wear eyebrow makeup, these gels will help set it so your look lasts.
Many eyebrow gels are multi-purpose. In addition to using them on your brows, you can also use them on your eyelashes to enhance them without changing their color or lengthening them. You can even use it to tame small flyaway hairs when you style your hair for the day.
So, which clear eyebrow gel should you use?
There really isn’t that big of a difference between the expensive brands and the cheap brands, so you might as well start with whatever you can just pick up at the local drug store or super store.
e.l.f. has a great clear gel for just $2
NYX Control Freak sells for around $5.99
Maybelline Great Lash has a clear formula that makes an excellent eyebrow gel.
Pick one up and see how they work for you.
What’s your biggest eyebrow concern?
Eyebrow gels are a great way to enhance your natural brows without trying to figure out how to fill them in. I never got the hang of “doing my brows” but I love a good clear brow gel.
I have never heard of eyebrow gels! It sounds like a great way to harness those wild brows though.
My daughter is obsessed with these and now that I’m reading this post thinking I should try out at least one of the brands you shared!
I have heard of eyebrow gel but have yet to try it out myself. I think I’ll pick some up and give it a go after my next wax.
My biggest eyebrow concern is they grow too fast. A clear gel would help tame them.
Thankfully I don’t have to worry about filling in my brows. However I would love to try the clear gel to keep them in place.
It would be kind of cool to try some of these out. It might be nice having a reliable clear gel to keep the eyebrows looking sharp.
I have wild eyebrows, they are thick and flaky underneath, yikes. I’d like to try the e.l.f product for only $2 dollars, how cool is that? I could use some shape to mine.
My biggest concern is I don’t have enough eyebrow to work with. They are super thin 🙁
I am so behind on makeups newest trends. Will have to look into these.
My eye brows right now are a hot mess. So once I get them all fixed up these would be great to try. Ive never used anything on my eye brows before!
These are all great ideas. I used to use a clear gel on mine, but it would end up being flakey by the end of the day. I’ve gone to a pencil as of late.
Neat! I’ve never heard of an item like this before. That could be because I’m always behind on beauty stuff! haha
I never heard of this eyebrow gel before, or maybe I am just not a make up fan. But it sounds like a great product. I think a little change on my brows won’t hurt. 😉
So, is it like hair gel but for your eyebrows?? Thank goodness I don’t need that but dang, that’s neat!
I’ve ever tried an eyebrow gel. Sounds like an easy fast solution to unruly brows though!
I use eyebrow gel all the time. It is a great way to make your brows look amazing.
I LOVE the title to your post! I’m all about some clear brow gel! Get them brows under control!
My eyebrows are thin. My daughter is the opposite though. She’s got thick eyebrows that need constant shaping. I will recommend this clear eyebrow gels to her. I can’t believe they are so inexpensive!
These are perfect and they’re affordable as well. I have thick brows and I don’t really need more color to cover anything up, I would rather that they look groomed and perfect.
