Urban Decay is known for shaking up beauty standards. Their products are created for beauty lovers who want to stand out and express themselves. Big Bush Brow is proof of that; it’s an eyebrow gel that promises bigger, bolder brows. I was lucky enough to get my hands on one. Here’s everything I think you should know before you add it to your basket.
You Will Love Big Bush Brow If…
You’ll love Big Bush Brow’s volumising abilities if your eyebrows are sparse and thin. It transformed the look of my eyebrows in seconds. If you’re a keen traveller or often short on time, Big Bush Brow will be a great addition to your makeup bag; it builds thickness, shapes, and tints in one swipe.
What Does It Do?
It builds brow volume and thickness, plus helps shape and tint brow hairs. I lack volume at the front of my eyebrows, and Big Bush Brow helped me build the thickness to match the rest of my eyebrows. It was very quick and easy to use, and although it’s tinted, it wasn’t too pigmented.
How Does It Do It?
The brow gel contains natural-looking hair-like fibres that add thickness and nourishing, plant-based castor oils that protect and condition. Its waterproof, smudge-proof, and flake-resistant formula keeps brows in place all day and night.
What Does It Smell And Feel Like?
It doesn’t have a distinctive smell. It has a cream texture that is neither too wet nor too dry. It adheres to hair easily and doesn’t go stiff when it’s dry, so it never flakes.
How Long Before You Need To Reapply?
It locks in place for 24 hours, so there’s no need to reapply. I applied it first thing in the morning, and my eyebrows stayed in place all day. Even the front hairs, which tend to have a life of their own, stayed put.
Best Place and Time To Use It?
Big Bush Brow is the ideal everyday eyebrow product. It’s so quick and easy. Because it’s waterproof, I’d also recommend using it on holiday or when you’re going to the gym.
Big Bush Brow Design and Aesthetic Is Special Because…
The eyebrow gel has short and long bristles for versatility. The short bristles shape and define, while the long bristles help to fill sparse areas and tint.
Sustainability and Values…
Big Bush Brow is vegan and cruelty-free.
My Overall Experience
The Big Bush Brow is foolproof. As someone with relatively full brows, I used it to boost my brows day-to-day. I didn’t need to use anything else alongside it. That said, I wouldn’t recommend it as a sole product to someone with very sparse eyebrows—you’ll need to pair it with a pencil or pomade.
The application was quick and easy; in a few swipes, the eyebrow gel gave my brows extra ‘oomph’, my unruly hairs locked into place, and any lighter hairs were tinted. I have tried some bad tinted eyebrow gels in the past, and my biggest bugbear is when they’re too pigmented and transfer everywhere. It can get messy. Luckily, Big Bush Brow didn’t do that; it was just pigmented enough. I’d still recommend removing any excess; adding more is easier than removing if you overdoing it.
