Q: is this brow gel waterproof?
submitted by satisfied - 4 years ago
A: Hi there! Thank you for your interest in our NYX Professional Makeup Control Freak Eyebrow Gel Clear. This eyebrow gel is not waterproof, but we do make a waterproof eyebrow primer called our Proof It! Waterproof Eyebrow Primer. This eyebrow gel primer sets your brows in place all day, rain or shine. Apply over brows before shaping with powder to keep them in control. Our formulation was made specially formulated for thin sparse brows. We hope you try them both soon! xoxo

I am a repeat customer of this products. It works so well to hold my brows in place. More often than not I will just apply this product to my brows in the morning and will not even fill my brows. Very cost-effective.

Wasn’t very gel-like at all. There either wasn’t very much product in the tube or the product was more like a liquid. Didn’t help shape my brows anymore than a dry spoolie would have, not worth it.

This will be my go-to clear brow gel for now. It has a decent hold, AND it’s cheap. I’ve tried both Boy Brow and Brow Boss and was not really impressed with either. My (Southeast Asian) brow hairs are kinda sparse, straight and coarse. The hold I would rate a 4 out of 5. The consistency reminds me of hair gel. It makes my eyebrows feel ever so slightly crunchy, but it doesn’t bother me. I also haven’t experienced any flaking like others have mentioned, and I appreciate that you get 3x the amount of product compared to some of the bigger name brands.
