What They Have to Say

All brow needs have been considered to create THE brow product: one to thicken, fill in, and groom brows into place. The creamy wax formula is inspired by traditional hair pomade for soft, flexible hold that doesn’t stiffen or flake. Comes in four shades: Blond, Brown, and Black boost brows with an oomph of color, while Clear gives you the same soft, conditioning hold minus the pigment. We’re inspired by healthy, face-framing brows and consider brow grooming the last crucial step to heading out into the world: brush your teeth, brush your brows, and then maybe brush your hair.

Boy Brow Review

Possibly Glossier’s most iconic product. Boy brow debuted in 2014 to help women everywhere achieve full, spikey, Cara Delevingne brows, and it is a brow wax rather than a brow gel –– think flexible, conditioning hold rather than an Albert Einstein worthy hairspray-esque effect.

Granted, the product does not miraculously give you said full Cara Delevingne brows unless you are naturally blessed with them. However, it does bring out the best “un-groomed” version of your natural brows. It is offered in Blond, Brown, Black, and Clear.

The three tinted colors are perfectly neutral (not to warm or too ashy) and layer well if you need that perfect blond-brown or brown-black eyebrow shade.

Needless to say, I have gone through two browns, two blacks, and a blond (yep, I went blond at one point). I thoroughly enjoy it and rank it amongst the top 5 brow pommade/gel/setter type products of all time.
