36 Products Under $20 That Just Really Truly Work

“I’ve lived many eyebrow lives until this point: the not filled in at all, the filled in WAY TOO HARSHLY AND DARK (major regret), and most recently, the ‘just a few sweeps of brow mascara.’ But when Glossier launched their newest eyebrow wonder, the Brow Flick, I really wanted to try it and see if it filled in my brows a little more than just gel does, without looking tooooooooo over-the-top. My perfect face of makeup is a heavy-ish brow, mascara, and a red lip, but finding the right balance for your forehead caterpillars can be a major challenge. I have bushy-ish brows, but the front of them (closest to my nose) is a very sparse swirl, making it look like my brows don’t even start where they should.

TL;DR: I LOVE this pen! It’s really easy to apply in short, hair-like strokes, and the fluid doesn’t come pouring out quickly so you don’t make mistakes. I like a dramatic brow look (as you can see LOL), but you can defs do a more natural one! Thanks to the really fine tip and not-too-inky formula, it’s VERY easy to build up! Just a few quick strokes (easier and more natural looking than a brow pencil, I found), a couple of brushes with your favorite brow gel (Boy Brow is great, and Glossier sells Boy Brow and Brow Flick in a set, saving you four bucks!). I also realized I really needed to pluck my brows after taking this photo for you guys, so it’s a win-win!” —Maitland Quitmeyer, BuzzFeed Senior Editor
