    First, make sure you brush your eyebrow in the direction you want it to flow. Brush upwards first if you want your eyebrows to appear higher, or brush up and then down towards the edges if you want them more tamed. Then, apply the eyebrow gel. Afterwards, use your finger to blend the gel a bit into your skin, for a more natural look.

    Brow gel helps hold your eyebrows in place and may contain pigment to darken them slightly. Apply it with the included applicator or a spoolie brush and comb your brows into the desired shape (usually up and out toward the outer corners).

    Eyeliner is usually heavily pigmented and will tend to look too dark on brows. In a pinch, you could apply a light brown eyeliner gel and comb through your brows after to break up the pigment.

    A pomade for brows would work much like an eyebrow gel to sculpt and style the brows. However, a pomade will have a lighter hold and softer finish.

    Clear brow gel is a product that is designed to sculpt the brows without changing the color. It is especially useful for controlling unruly hairs or unflattering growth patterns.

    How do I peel off the eyebrow gel in the morning?

    You brush brow gel through your brows in the morning so they stay in place all day. It doesn't peel off (unless it's a brow stain that your paint on and peel off, but even that's still on during the day).
