Gone are the years where we spent hours plucking our brows to achieve a dramatically thin, barely-there look (thankfully.) Now, we spend an equal amount of time scavenging through blogs, websites, and makeup counters to find products that do just the opposite. Brands have caught onto the trend and introduced endless products that promise to thicken, fill, define, and groom arches that mimic the full brows of those who have been naturally blessed. If you're really committed to the look, you could go get your brows micro-bladed—a semi-permanent treatment that's essentially tattooing the appearance of full brows onto your face—into perfectly symmetrical perfection. But if you're looking for something a little less extreme (and dare we say, more natural), we rounded up the most recommended brow products from passersby.

Beyond being the most recommended brow product, Glossier's best-selling Boy Brow is one of the most recommended products on Passerbuys period. This little tube does it all: fluffs, fills, and shapes your brows into place. The formula is inspired by traditional hair pomade to ensure that the product doesn't stiff or harden the hair on your brows. And if you're looking to achieve that untamed brow look, then you've found your match.
“Glossier Boy Brow is a favorite of mine.” – Deepica Mutyala

“I look for simple and low maintenance products, like Glossier Boy Brow”– Angie Venezia
"For make-up, I'm a light concealer, mascara, light cheek color, and full, thick, untamed boy brow kind of gal." – Ivy Weinglass
“Glossier is one of my favorite brand because they’re not trying to sell you this perfect persona that frankly nobody can be, they know everybody is sort of unique and they make the kind of products (like Boy Brow) to enhance your features and give you this really fresh look that I love.” – Gia Salvaggio

The formula in this pomade is oh-so-creamy and provides color, shaping, and shading all in one.

Clear Brow Gel can be used for all hair colors, and it won't flake. It holds your brows in place while conditioning brow hair. The gel is formulated with botanical conditioners and essential oils, which keep unruly brows in place all day without flaking.
"I fill in each brow with a grey powder (brown tends to read more red on pale blondes) and brush them out to make sure the color is evenly distributed. I feather them out with clear brow gel." – Hallie Gould
