If You Want to Fake a Brow Lamination for $24, Reach for This Makeup Brand
Ever since eyebrow laminations hit the scene, I’ve been coveting one. I love the fluffy, sculpted look that laminations give your brows. The only problem is that brow laminations are expensive, and you have to make regular appointments to keep up with them. Even so, I was ready to go for it and laminate my brows, but then I reached for one of my favorite makeup brands.
Benefit Cosmetics is known for its brow products, and it’s no surprise why—these products amp up your brows so much it will look like you just got them professionally done. My personal hero product is the 24-HR Brow Setter, which smooths my brows into place and makes it look like I just got an eyebrow lamination for about a quarter of the price. All of its brow products help me whip my arches into shape. Keep reading to learn about the best Benefit brow products—and what other makeup staples the brand does really well (hint: lots of mascara).
The best Benefit brow products:
1. Benefit Cosmetics 24-HR Brow Setter Clear Eyebrow Gel With Lamination Effect
This is it—the product that replaces a brow lamination. This gel can be used on its own or on top of a pencil for added definition and hold. It stays on for 24 hours and locks any makeup underneath in place. It coats individual hairs so your brows look defined, and it can help control even the most unruly eyebrows.
2. Benefit Cosmetics Precisely, My Brow Pencil Ultra-Fine Shape Define Pencil
The tip of this brow pencil is incredibly fine, so you're able to draw natural-looking hair to fill in any sparse areas and define brows. Not only will your brows look natural, but it's also waterproof and smudge-proof, so they'll stay in place all day.
3. Benefit Cosmetics Benefit Gimme Brow+ Volumizing Eyebrow Gel
4. Benefit Cosmetics Powmade Waterproof Brow Pomade
If you love the control and sculpting that you can achieve with pomade, Benefit's brow pomade is as good as it gets. The side of the container has innovative ridges that allow you to wipe off excess product so you get the perfect amount of product every time.
5. Benefit Cosmetics Goof Proof Brow Pencil Easy Shape Fill Pencil
6. Benefit Cosmetics Brow Styler Eyebrow Pencil Powder Duo
7. Benefit Cosmetics Browvo! Conditioning Eyebrow Primer
8. Benefit Cosmetics High Brow Duo Pencil Eyebrow
9. Benefit Cosmetics Grooming Tweezer Brush
Once I saw these tweezers, I had to wonder why every pair of tweezers isn't designed like this. These innovative dual-ended tweezers make it nearly impossible to over-tweeze. The brush at the end lets you brush up brows while you tweeze them, so you know exactly where you need to tweeze.
10. Benefit Cosmetics Benefit Brow Microfilling Pen
11. Benefit Cosmetics Brow Zings Pro Palette
12. Benefit Cosmetics Good Brow Day Full Size Set
More Benefit staples that we swear by:
Not only does this concealer flawlessly cover blemishes and dark circles, but the packaging is also extremely cute.
