Bugger. It turns out Boy Brow IS that good.

Finally popped my Glossier cherry. I always struggle with getting the right thing on my brows - pencils smudge so easily, Maybelline Tattoo Brow dried up really fast and nobody wants accidental slugs. The Boy Brow looked really natural, full but not OTT and stayed put, even on my pale and sparse brows. And now I've got an expensive new habit just when I can least afford one (DH furloughed, I've had hours cut). Damnit!

Might as well be hanged for a sheep: what Glossier stuff should I try next? I've also ordered Futuredew, which feels nice on but not sure about the tinted colour...

I love Boy Brow! Keep trying to find a cheaper dupe but nothing comes close.

Try Make Me Brow by Essence - I use it and it’s really good. £2.50 from Wilko and Amazon have it too.

Has anyone tried the Skin Tint? I'm getting sucked in by the offer on Instagram. I haven't tried any Glossier products before.

My skin is ok, a bit dehydrated and an occasional blemish and I'm looking to embrace my freckles (after years of hating them!).

Oh my goodness...

Futuredew has changed my life on days where I don’t want to wear a full foundation. Slap it on. Leave for 2 minutes. Blusher, mascara and I’m out the door. Easy.

I got the fine liner for brows as mine are sparse, didn’t like it at all. I’m going to order some more goodies from them over the weekend and I’ll report back.

I've succumbed to the Stretch concealer but I'm not convinced it's as good as the NARS one I usually use.

Following this Sali Hughes article, I tried the Rimmel brow gel and it's very nice. I usually use a powder, so the brow gel gives a slightly more natural look for me. Much cheaper than Boy Brow in case anyone wants to try an alternative.

if you are 50, future dew won't replace foundation (!) but it is wonderful stuff
