NYX Eyebrow Gel Review and Photos

NYX Eyebrow Gel in Brunette

If you've seen my reviews on eyebrow products, you'll know I love trying different types of brow make-up. I recently came across this gel formula in a tube from NYX, which I had never seen before, so of course, I had to put it to the test, so here are my thoughts. 

Price

This retails for £5.50 for 10ml of product, which is amazing value for money for such a unique gel that's unlike any other on the drugstore market. The NYX Eyebrow Gel also comes in 5 shades including Blonde, Brunette, Chocolate, Espresso and Black, I picked this up in Brunette.

Packaging

This comes in a squeezy tube and also boxed, with clear instructions, tips and what the product is. Each shade represents the colour of the tube, so it's easy to see which shade is right for you, just from the box.

Application

To apply, you will need a brush and also a pot or something to disperse the product onto, which is a bit of a pain, but I actually used the lid of my Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow to squeeze some onto. The tube itself is also quite hard to get the product out of, I think because the consistency of the gel is so thick, so I do think this would be better maybe in a pot form instead, for easier access to the product.

Upon application a little goes a long way, so defiantly use this product sparingly as it is mega pigmented. I used a tiny eyeliner brush to apply this, along with a spoolie to brush it out. Overall my brows looked non-sparse, groomed and well-defined.

Longevity

This gel had the most amazing longevity, as not only did the colour not budge, it also practically felt like it had glued my long brows hairs down firmly in place all day long! The only con to this, was it was super hard to get off at the end of the day, so I would recommend using an oily make-up remover to break down the product.

Overall Thoughts

This for me was a wonder product as not only did it fill in my brows exceptionally well, it defined and groomed them into place for a remarkably long time! The price is phenomenal giving how much product you get and the colour selection is lovely and I also read you can mix the shades to customise your own shade if you like too. The only con like I mentioned is the tube as you really have to squeeze hard to get the product out because of the consistency and also just make sure you have an oily make-up remover to hand too! But overall this is another unique product from NYX that sets them ahead of the game within the drugstore market because of their affordability factor and amazing product variety.

I award the NYX Eyebrow Gel 4.8 out of 5

The Top 5 NYX Products Worth Buying!

NYX Cosmetics

NYX is a brand I first discovered years ago through watching the early beauty youtubers, but unfortunately it wasn't as easy to get hold of here in the UK. Finally years later NYX Cosmetics is now available in Boots and Boots online which is great to hear, so I thought I'd share with you my Top 5 favourite products worth buying.

NYX Matte Bronzer

1. NYX Matte Bronzer £7

I've been fond of this bronzer for years now as it's matte, non-orange, buildable and it blends out well too. I also featured this in my Top 10 Drugstore Bronzers Worth Buying as it's a great affordable option that has the perfect consistency and plus it comes with a mirror too.

NYX Matte Bronzer in Medium

NYX Wonder Stick

2. NYX Wonder Stick £10

The Wonder Stick is a great product if you're a beginner to highlighting and contouring. This easy to use stick comes in four shades and a step by step guide on how to use. I love this as it's convenient, quick and has a great consistency that altogether help you achieve the perfect contour and highlight just like a pro.

NYX Eyebrow Gel

3. NYX Eyebrow Gel £5.50
I've tried a fair few brow products from NYX, but I have to say the one product that impressed me the most was their Eyebrow Gel. This is very similar to a brow pomade except it comes in a tube. All you do is squeeze a little onto a lid and dip in your brush. I love this as it's great for filling in gaps, defining the brow and the best thing is it's super long-wearing. The gel comes in five shades which you can also mix to create a custom brow shade.

NYX Eyebrow Gel in Brunette

NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils

4. NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils £5
The NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils have been a staple in my make-up collection ever since I can remember. These vivid sticks of colour can be used as an eyeshadow, liner or as a coloured eyeshadow base to help a powder shadow pop. I use these on a weekly basis mostly as a coloured eyeshadow base as they are creaseless, long-wearing and come in so many fun shades. Four of my staples are Sparkle Nude, French Fries, Milk and Black Bean.

NYX Butter Lipstick

This last product I found hard to choose as for me NYX are the best when it comes to drugstore lip products as they have so many different colours finishes and types of lip products to choose from. I did finally narrow it down to two, as I know not everyone likes the same finish of lipstick.

5. NYX Butter Lipstick £5.50
First up is the NYX Butter Lipstick, if you prefer a lip product with a slight sheen. These are super creamy and glide on like a dream and for £5.50 you can't go wrong! Pops is my favourite shade as it's a really wearable nude/brown, but there is defiantly a colour for everyone with 26 shades to choose from.

 

NYX Matte Lipstick

NYX Matte Lipsticks £6.50
As I mentioned above I wanted to share with you a sneaky sixth lipstick for anyone who prefers a matte finish. The NYX Matte Lipsticks have phenomenal colour pay off and come in a whopping 45 shades to choose from. My favourite is Whipped Caviar which is very similar to MAC Twig. This again is such a wearable shade, that's non drying and is pretty impressive for the price.
