A Beginner’s Guide to Eyebrow Gel
For all those out there trying to figure out what’s a ‘Brow Gel,’ here’s your answer — Popularly called 
Eyebrow Gel, this product is a filler used for your eyebrows. It usually comes in shades of black or brown, in 
thick gel-like consistency, to make your brows look lush and healthy. Think of it as mascara, but for your 
beautiful eyebrows instead of your eyes.
Eyebrow Gel Formulation
Most artificial brow gels use wax, synthetic fibers, and even polymer gels as their base. Now either these 
gels are left clear for a non-tinted look, or concocted with dyeing agents like charcoal to impart the black or 
brown shade. Natural formulations use beeswax, pine cone, rosemary, etc in addition to other ingredients. 
The wax holds up the fine hairs of the eyebrow like gel does your hair, while giving the arc of your brow a 
solid shape. Perfect for those with scanty or light eyebrows.
How to Use a Brow Gel
Eyebrow gels usually come with an angled brush or applicator. A mascara wand may also work if nothing 
else is found. Aestheticians suggest outlining the brow from inside out and then going in to fill the gaps. 
Always work in the direction of the growth of your hair and go for less when you start. Most tinted 
eyebrow gels are dark enough to impart color in small quantities.
Benefits
Like any beauty product, a brow gel enhances your beauty, of course. In the current scene of beauty 
trends, thick, dark eyebrows are more essential than ever. The gel formulation of an eyebrow gel not only 
enhances the shape of your eyebrow but makes it look natural and healthy. And when infused with 
essential oils and other natural products, the gel also nourishes your eyebrow hairs.
Brow Gel for Blondes
So now, what do you do if your natural brow color is light to blonde? Well, there are products that come in 
taupe or light brown for lighter eyebrows. Clear brow gels are also great for such hair types as they hold up 
the shape of the brow without making them look dark or unnatural. The current trends though suggest that 
you paint your brows one shade darker for that ‘vogue’ look.
DIY Eyebrow Gel
So, ready to concoct a batch at home? Well, it’s pretty simple. You will need some clear hair gel, to begin 
with. To a spoonful of this, add a dash of brown or black eyeshadow powder. Make sure you use a product 
that is at least two shades lighter than the hairs of your eyebrow. This gives a natural look. Mix, mix, mix. 
Store in a small airtight jar. And Voila! Now you can apply your homemade brow gel with the help of a 
clean brush or mascara wand.
In case you wish to create a clear transparent eyebrow gel, go for some warm water and plain gelatine 
powder. Concoct a jelly. You can add any essential oil of your choice for extra nourishment and fragrance. 
Lavender or rosemary is the best. Again, store in a tube or jar and enjoy!
