Super Lock Brow Glue Eyebrow Gel
Summary of Reviews
Maybelline Super Lock Brow Glue is a firm-hold tinted brow gel that several creators, including professional makeup artist Risa Does Makeup, say keeps brows lifted and in place all day without crunchiness. It's repeatedly compared to Rare Beauty's brow gel as a cheaper dupe, though Amanda Z notes the stopper lets out too much product at once and By Kristina Studio says it may not hold very stubborn hairs for a lamination effect. Shaaanxo calls the value "incredible," and most agree it's a fast, easy everyday option.
