OUR 5 BEST BOY BROW DUPES THAT WORK JUST AS GOOD

In this detailed post, we’re diving deep into the makeup universe and unearthing top-notch eyebrow game-changers. The chosen five have met my meticulous standards, promising you the same fabulous effect as the iconic Boy Brow – the fuller, fluffier, naturally tamed brows that we all love, but without emptying your purse! We’ll talk formulation, performance, color options, longevity, and, of course, pricing. You’re in the right place if you’re all about those dreamy, well-defined brows. So, hold tight, beauties, because we’re about to transform your brow routine in ways you wouldn’t have imagined. Prepare to be blown away!

If the Boy Brow’s powers have smitten you – you’re certainly not alone. But when the price tag becomes a hurdle, or when it’s forever sold out (because it’s just THAT good), or perhaps you’re just a beauty enthusiast always on the hunt for something new – the need for alternatives arises. That’s why I’ve dedicated countless hours on a mission to find not one, not two, but FIVE fantastic ‘Boy Brow’ dupes that will leave you questioning why you haven’t tried them sooner!

The Glossier Boy Brow Love Affair

Like the best love stories, Boy Brow’s charm lies in its simplicity. Its creamy wax formula gives you all the control you need to fill, fluff, and shape your brows, all while keeping them soft and flexible – no stiff, plastered brows here! It enhances what you’ve got, making your natural brows the star of the show.

We fell for Boy Brow not just for its top-notch performance, but also for its inclusive range of shades. Whether you’re a blondie, a brunette, or a raven-haired beauty, Boy Brow has got you covered with its four pigmented shades. Plus, there’s also a clear option for those days when you just want a bit of hold and structure without the added color.

Shady Business – Getting Colorful with Boy Brow

The Boy Brow comes in five shades, from a subtle blonde to a rich brunette, and even a clear gel for days you want just the hold without any pigment. It has been instrumental in my various transformations, from being a platinum-blonde diva one day to flaunting my chestnut locks the next!

And remember my beach holiday last summer? I took just the clear Boy Brow with me. The result was fabulous, natural brows that could withstand a day in the sun without me worrying about color running down my face. Who doesn’t love a product that gets you right?

The Brow Evolution

Brow trends have taken quite a twist in the past few years, haven’t they? As much as we relished the bold and darker brows, we loved the shift to more natural, fluffy brows. With its superbly flexible hold, the Boy Brow has played a massive role in that transition, even making sparse brows look full of life!

Trust me; I’ve had my fair share of brow disasters, over-plucked here, too bold. It’s a relief that we’re moving away from the overly filled-in look. The combo of brow gels like Boy Brow and subtle, hair-like strokes has been a game-changer for me!

The NYX Powerhouse: Control Freak Eyebrow Gel

Control Freak Clear Eyebrow Gel

Let’s kick off with the NYX Control Freak Eyebrow Gel, a true master of brow taming. This gem can command each brow hair, aligning them to march in unison for an all-day, stay-put brow game. The clear gel is your go-to if you love a non-sticky, no-clump formula.

One thing I genuinely respect about NYX is its commitment to being cruelty-free, vegan, and PETA certified. The cherry on top? It’s super affordable, my lovelies! You can nab this product for a mere $6! So, if you’re a budget beauty queen like me, NYX is your faithful companion.

Another benefit is the NYX Control Freak Eyebrow Gel is actually a clear gel formula. It’s designed to tame, groom, and set your brows without adding any additional color. This feature makes it a great option if you’re looking for something to simply keep your brows in place throughout the day or if you prefer to fill in your brows with a different product and need a top coat to seal everything in. However, if you’re interested in a colored brow gel from NYX, you might want to consider their Tinted Brow Mascara which comes in several color options.

Remember my cousin’s wedding last spring when it poured down just as we left the ceremony? I was relieved to find my Gimme Brow + standing strong! Its water-resistant and long-lasting formula offers you the peace of mind to enjoy your day minus the constant touch-ups. It comes in ten shades, and I bet you’ll find your perfect color match. An Allure Best of Beauty award winner, this $32 splurge is justified.
