We’ve spent hours sitting in a chair clenching our fists while experts thread, tweak and wax our brows. But it’s not about having pencil-thin Y2K eyebrows anymore. This means unless you’re Cara Delivingne, you’re probably always on the lookout for products that will add some volume, define and give you arches that won’t fall flat. After all, we’ve learned (the hard way) that brows are the make-it-or-break-it of your whole make-up look. You fill them in perfectly and they will define your features more than any blush or highlighter can (no offence to any product, we love them all equally!).
However, it isn’t so easy to differentiate the brow products that will do their job well and the ones that will ghost you or smudge off in a matter of hours. To aid you in your search and to save you some legwork, we have rounded some of the best products on shelves right now. Take your pick and you can thank us by flaunting your perfectly defined brows.
