Most Helpful Positive Review I think I found my HG brow gel! I never write reviews but I bought this product on a whim, simply because I love the lip and eye products Lime Crime offers and have been trying different brow products for about 3-4 years now since I started trying to fill mine in/shape them better. I was consider buying Boy Brow but went with this instead as a lot of Glossier's advertisements seem like they rely on your own brows to be amazingly full already. Prior to the LC brow gel I was using the Essence brow gel which I was not a fan of as I felt it added too much pigment to my brows, clumping them together and not actually adding any desired effect. With that, I was also using the Anastasia Brow Pencil. Before those two products, I had also used the NYX Brow powder and the Maybelline Clear Mascara as a Brow Gel. I was never happy with those products, although I thought perhaps my brows would look the best they could with the Anastasia and brow powders and maybe brow gels weren't for me. THIS PRODUCT PROVED ME WRONG! My brows are done in under a minute! I can't stop looking @ them after! 1 or 2 swipes through each brow with this brow gel and my brows which aren't SUPER full but aren't INSANELY sparse (definitely missing some volume/fullness especially at the start of them), become pretty bushy and actually seem like they have more hair! I truly was amazed by the result. It looked natural and believable but just like I had so much more hair/volume than without it or with any other product that made my eyebrows look fake. If you like Instagram brows, that's not what I'm talking about. The Boy Brow look/naturally bushy look. I think it's perfect for everyday and for people who enjoy that fresh faced youthful look! I've used it for a few days now and I still love it. Some hairs fall flatter after a few hours but I don't expect them to magically stay up. Only thing I would say is make sure you set your brows after putting a pullover as I've lost the volume that I've spoken of. I highly recommend giving this a go!
Most Helpful Critical Review It's ok So I've purchased plenty of LC products with high expectations and have 80% of the time been really disappointed. I don't rrally get the hype with this brand. This gel is very mediocre for the price and on top of that, just like many other LC products, the packaging quality is awful!! The components are alwayssss fading off and I'm always left with a blank tube of product. It's happened to all my lipsticks and all the eyeshadows and glosses I've gotten with them. And it fades off FAST. To some this isn't a big deal but for the price I expect top notch stuff since this doesn't happens to any of my other makeup products. Even wet n wild can make things that stay aesthetically beautiful throughout their whole use! The only things I'd ever recommend from this brand worth their price is their VENUS PALETTES!!! Now those things I'll recommend to anyone even though those are still pretty pricey

There was no gel in the tube. I did exchange the product but the 2nd tube was the same. Absolutely dry, no product. Don't waste tour money
Best brow gel 5
Ashley from Detroit
Unlike most brow gels, it doesn't pick up way too much product on the brush. Most make it way too difficult and messy to apply unless you have completely full, dense brows. This one deposits just the right amount of product, adds volume, and comes in great, natural-looking colors. I've purchased multiple shades.
Not bad 5
Amy from Omaha
Got it as a freebie. Adds a little color and hold. Looks natural. Doesn't smudge
Disappointed 1
Kristin from Atlanta
I purchased this product, because I needed and wanted to try a brow gel. Lime Crime has great products and I've been a customer for a long time. I trust the brand to put out high quality items, but the brow gel was awful. My container felt like it was empty. The brush had a small amount of gel on it when I would take it out of the component, but it really felt like there was 0 product in the container. I wish I had returned to the store. I will not purchase this item again.

I have light brows and really only like a natural looking brow. This product is perfect. I get a an eyebrow you can actually see, but doesn't look too made-up.
great if you want a natural look 5
Lisa from Colorado
I finally found my perfect brow product! I have tried pencils (too fake looking) and powders (too dark) and the dirty blonde LimeCrime busy brow is finally what I was looking for - pumps up my fairly full brows without making me look like I've overdone my brows. This stuff works great! I think it's best if you have fairly full brows to begin with though.

This was the most useless product I've ever bought. I don't know if I got a defective one, but when I tried to use it the brush was basically dry. There was virtually no brow gel on it. I returned it to my local Ulta and caught them trying to resell it after I had used it. Not happy.

My Favorite 5
AdminGirl from NY
The Brownie color is perfect for my ombre (pink and med brown) hair. It fills them and keeps them in place looking a lot fuller, and no smudging or coming off until I wash my face.
Little to no product (clear) 1
Hann from IL
Was really excited to use this but like the other review I thought it was empty. Maybe the ones with color get more product but it's just a brush at this point, I don't see getting any use out of this product. I love Lime Crime too :/
Did Almost Nothing 1
Ellen from Chicago
I bought this in clear and I almost thought the tube I got was empty. Hardly any product went onto the applicator even when I scraped it around in the tube and what little product did end up on my brows did almost nothing. Don't waste your money.
Love it, but there's not much product 5
Lauren from Indiana
I really like this brow gel. I wanted my brows to have a little more shape and volume, plus darken them to match my newly dyed black hair. I got the color Smokey. I like that it's cool-toned, since most companies make all of their brown products warm/red toned. It's good for black hair, but it could still look natural on cool-toned dark brown hair, I think. This goes on just a little at a time, so you can build it up. Since I am using a very dark color on very fair skin, it's very important that I don't get too much product deposited at a time. It's not flaky or crunchy. My only complaint is that a majority of the packaging is taken up by the lid and you don't get very much product. I really like the Lime Crime Bushy Brow Precision Pen, too. I wish Ulta would carry that product also.
Finally achieved my dream brows 5
Shelly from Chicago
This brow gel has surpassed all my expectations. My brow hairs tend to be a little unruly, and I was originally just looking for something to keep the hairs in place after filling them in. BUT THIS BROW GEL DID THAT AND SO MUCH MORE. My brows do not budge after working 8-10 hour shifts as a server yet the gel comes off easily with a little soap and water. My brows look incredibly full and thick without the harsh lines of brow pencils. The gel gives such a beautiful natural looking brow, and it's also buildable for those days you want a little extra drama. The amount of brow compliments I've gotten since I started using the brow gel and ditched my brow pencil has been wild! Can't recommend this enough!
New Favorite Brow Gel 5
Ash from NY
Was reluctant because I haven't had luck with like crime but this brow gel is amazing. Lasts all day. My brows don't move. The color is great and it really gives you beautiful bushy and full brows but keeps the structure. Works great as a last step to a structured brow or on its own.
Best brow shaper I've tried 5
Fitzyritzy from Monterey, CA
This makes shaping your brows so easy. I love how skinny the brush is. You feel like you have a lot of control. Adds a little color and hold. I love the brush so much that I'll still use it once the product runs out, but I'll just dip it in Essence brow gel to save money 😇

AMAZING 5
CatLady4Life from Iowa
I love that there is a shade for people in between brunette & blonde which is their "dirty blonde." This is the first brow gel I've ever gotten that's actually matched my eyebrow hair color. I really like the brush with this gel. It works excellent!
