NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Thick It Stick It Thickening Brow Mascara, Eyebrow Gel - Black

My brows have never been particularly thin or sparse- I’m one of those xennials that refused to pluck’em pencil-thin in the 90’s and I’m so very grateful for that! As I’ve gotten older, however, I am noticing the sparseness. I’ve always loved having full brows because it just compliments my face better. Before this product, if I was wearing a full-face of makeup I would pencil in, use brow powder or pomade in those sparse areas, followed by a tinted fiber gel (like Glossier Boy Brow or the ABH tinted brow gel) to set them. I don’t particularly enjoy spending too much time on my brows since it’s one of the last things I do before mascara & walking out the door and this NYX gel just checked all the boxes, especially considering the price point and the amount of product you get. You just can’t beat it! If I’m wearing a more day-to-day no-makeup makeup look, I used to limit my brow products to just Glossier’s tinted boy brow, or brow powder with wax to set. This NYX product changed it all! It does an incredible job of filling in any of those gaps with fibers and setting the brow. It works for full-glam and for everyday looks (with a light hand). One of my biggest concerns, since it is quite pigmented, was it running if I sweat, and just the overall longevity. I’m happy to say that once the gel dries, it stays put all day. On particularly long days (16+ hrs) I did notice some fading, but the tube is small enough to carry in my bag and it was easy to touch up without looking clumpy or out of place. I love the shade range, and the darker colors are quite forgiving so if you have dark brows, chances are that a few of the darker shades will work for you. Now, if you’re new to the world of fiber brow gels, follow these tips before you decide if this product works for you- 1. The wand picks up quite a bit of product and, like I mentioned before it is pigggmennnted! Wipe off the excess on the sides of the tube just as you would with mascara so you’re working with a little bit of product at a time. It’s easier to add more than to remove. 2. Start at the outer ends of your brows. The outer-ends should always be the darkest part of your eyebrow. DO NOT apply this to the inner brow first. Work from the outer tail of your brow in. 3. To make sure you get an even gel & fiber distribution, I suggest first combing the hair downwards, then to the side (against the way the hair grows), then up (the way you would normally brush your brows). This method works exceptionally well for those who don’t have a lot of hair to begin with. Again, take off a bit of the product on the side of the tube so you have more control until you get the hang of it. 4. Keep in mind, this will give you a very fluffy, full brows- if you don’t particularly like this look, you will not like this product. 5. If you feel that you’ve applied too much, take a clean eyebrow or mascara spoolie brush (elf, dollar stores, and even Amazon sells them for cheap), and just brush away the excess. 6. You can always use a thin, angled eyeliner/eyebrow brush with a bit of this gel to make more hair-like strokes if need be, or to outline your brow. No need for a pencil or pomade. Although this product is long lasting, it’s easy to remove at the end of the day with a makeup remover (Bioderma is my go-to) or face cleanser.

I like this product a lot. When I want a more natural-looking glam, it really defines my brows a little more. I love how long this product lasts and how thick and polished it makes my brows look. The product is as described and packaged well. (I purchased Brunette).

I was influenced by Mikayla Noguiera to make this purchase. It’s an OK product, but I don’t think it’s amazing. I guess for the price, it does deliver, but I am tired of buying multiple tubes to try to find the correct color for my eyebrows. The affordable price point gets expensive after doing that. I might as well go to an expensive beauty counter and ask for help. At least I would get the right color! The hair hold of the product is pretty good, but it doesn’t smooth my brows very well and often the tiny little ones are left sticking straight out. I even purchased a tool with a flat end to push the browse flat. The problem with that is then you have eyebrows sticking to your forehead like you’ve gelled them down. I’d like a more natural look. I guess I will continue to use this product until I find something that I like more. This is not really a win for me.

My eye brows are so light blond that it doesn’t look like I have eyebrows. I don’t like the feel nor the look of an eyebrow pencil, so my daughter suggested I try this instead which she uses. I love it. It helps train my eyebrows to lie flat & straight and the color brushes onto my eyebrows so it looks natural.

Ok, so I am one of those girls who over plucked on the early 2000s, we all know who we are, lol. Im 34 now and have more brows than ive ever had, but I have a really small tail and thinner front. I'm fair skinned and medium/dark blond but I dye my hair light blond, my eye brows are light to medium blonde for reference. I'm writing this review after using twice, and will update after trying a few more times. This product has a very large brush, which was the first issue. I don't have a lot of brows so it was very hard not to get it all over the skin around the brows. The spoolie that is attached is about the same size as a full size spoolie for eyebrows. Im used to using E.L.F. wow brow, which has a very small spoolie. It is also very wet, although this is a new tube so it may just need time to dry out a bit like some mascara. So, I'll try to get it to dry out a bit and see if that helps. Since it's so wet, I feel like there is a lot less fiber in each swipe, again, it may need to dry out a bit. It does have excellent color pay off, and the color is fairly on point for taupe, although I prefer just a little cooler shade(yes I know taupe is usually warmer bur there are degrees of just how warm). It dries down fairly quick, so best to do 1 brow at a time. It did have a bit of a harder feel once it dries down on the hairs but the skin felt just fine. It actually stuck to the skin much better than the ELF I'm used to, so I may use this on the very front where I use NYX snatched pen to make some hair strokes. Honestly, I think the size of the brow spoolie is the main issue, so I will try using one of my small ELF ones and see if that helps with the control of the products. All in all I'd say if u don't have very sparce/light brows like me, this would be perfect for you. If you do, it's going to take some work to get the product to work well for you, but it's not bad at all. All in all I'd give this 3.5/5 stars but since I can't give it a half star, I'll do 3. Again, I will come back and update once I've tried a few more times to work out the kinks. Update: Even after trying different spoolies and letting it dry out a bit, it just was not working for me. I did use a little on the front and tails a few times and filled in the middle with pen- it looked kind of funny, so no go.

I have sparse eyebrows and I love the results of this product. excellent.

The photo shows the item that I had been using, and was attempting to replace. I received this new item instead, which is definitely inferior. The one I was using, went on very smoothly and even completely covered a couple of gray lashes. This new one is like mud, it’s so thick and does not look at all natural and does not no matter how hard I try, cover the couple of grades. I purchased many products from this company, but now wondering if they are going to be changing up other things too. Very disappointing.

Helps to fluff up your brows, add color and keep brows in place

good

Love this. Can build up - really adds thickness to my eyebrows. They are actually really transformed with this product and the result is very effective and just what I was looking for. I use this every day and it hasn't dried out like some similar products and lasts ages. I find it really easy to apply. It's the only makeup I wear consistently every day along with a coloured lip balm. Lasts all day in the heat too and when I'm at the gym. Excellent!

Very pleased with product. Fills in lack of hair on my brows. Nice variety of colours, textured. NYX products not tested on animals.

En riktigt bra produkt om man vet hur man ska använda den

Dobry produkt
