But, it's worth bearing in mind that it promises a more natural than steadfast hold and aims to create a more subtle-looking brow. When I tested it, my brows brushed up into place nicely but after a long day of wear, the hold did tend to falter. I rated the dual-sided brush which allows for good control over product application and the added microfibres mean you can thicken sparse hairs in just a few strokes. There are only two lighter shades on offer which could be a drawback (but there's always the transparent option!) The range of deeper shades means there's something for everyone and you're bound to find a match. That's why this Hourglass one is a real favorite for brunettes. There are so many shades of brunette, from red-toned auburn to ashy, smoky brown, and it can be tricky to find the best eyebrow gel to suit your coloring. For the price though, it's a solid makeup staple. If you use a lot of product it can also turn flaky and crispy after a few hours. It kept hairs brushed up and in place but the texture itself was a little sticky.

The product claims to give up to 72 hours of hold and when I put it to the test, I certainly found my eyebrows didn't budge. I found using the short bristles toward the head of the eyebrow and the longer bristles on the tail of the brow resulted in the most natural look and easiest application. One side of the brush has longer bristles than the other, and I found it really easy to control how much product is deposited and the depth of each brush stroke. More commonly incorporated into braided hairstyles, styled edges (otherwise known as baby hairs that grow around the hairline) can be put into place with a hair gel or wax but why not save your money and use this 2-in-1 brow-edge gel instead? Multipurpose products mean more space in your makeup bag and more cash in your wallet which is why I really rate this gel - it's suitable to use on brows and baby hairs. The best eyebrow gels, chosen by our beauty team These won't add any extra pigment and turn your eyebrows into slugs, but will keep hairs looking neat and tidy.

Dark brows: When you don't need to add color go for a slick of the best clear mascara.'Don’t just take any color and apply heavily, less is more!', says Fogg. Fair brows: Although it's tempting to add definition to fair brows with a darker gel, opting for a matching shade will be more flattering.'Brush your brows using one of the best makeup brushes or a spoolie, to shape and move any unruly hairs into the right direction,' says Fogg. One with an excellent brush will make them easier to style. Unruly brows: Brows that move out of place with a slight breeze will need to go for long-lasting, fixing eyebrow gels.'It’s all about using light strokes of product.' 'Being too heavy-handed with gels is one of the most common problems I see,' says Fogg. A clear, no-frills eyebrow gel that keeps hairs in place and looking natural, will do.

Thick brows: Brows that already have fullness shouldn't need fibers to thicken them.Much like the best eyelash grower serums, a brow gel containing a serum will encourage healthy growth and a gel with tiny, thickening fibres that cling to hairs will help to create fullness. Sparse brows: If you've over-plucked your brows and the hairs haven't grown back properly, the best eyebrow gel for you will be one that thickens and promotes growth.Find out more about how we research and test products.
