With over 5 million views on Tiktok, Finally Have Brows (created by How to be a Redhead) went viral. It’s one of the first brow gels created for redheads by redheads and people are blown away. Most redheads naturally have blonde or very light red brows, which can make finding the right shade of brow makeup difficult. Many redheads resort to tinting their brows or using multiple products to achieve the right shade.

Since brow gels usually don’t work well for redheads, many redheads have never tried a brow gel. Here are a few of our favorite tips and tricks for getting the perfect look with Finally Have Brows:

Step 1: Watch other redheads applying Finally Have Brows
Application is everything and it can vary from redhead to redhead, depending on your shade and texture of brows. There are several dozen redheads online applying Finally Have Brows. Check out the tutorials, watch how they do it and replicate the techniques.
Step 2: Clean up your brows
Brow gel will cling to any hairs it can find, which might leave you feeling like your look is messy. Wax or pluck your brows into shape before applying the gel for a clean look.
Step 3 (Optional): Pencil in sparse areas
The brow gel will also fill in sparse areas, but if you want it to be super precise, you will want to use a pencil. Before you apply your gel, give a few flicks of your favorite brow pencil to any patchy spots, and then apply your gel over top.
Finally Have Brows Ultra Fine Brow Pencil launched on August 5th and we can’t wait for you to try it. The brow pencil can be used all on its own to add color and shape to the brow. This look is perfect for those who have very sparse brows and can’t get a full coverage look with gel. The pencil can also be used on those redheads who have darker brows, or those who tint their brows but need something to fill in any sparse areas.
The also pencil comes with a great built-in spoolie brush. Brush + fill in your brows for instant results.
Step 4: Customize your coverage
When using brow gel for the first time, most people take it on with a heavy hand. It’s intended to add color and hold to the brow, not coat it completely. Wipe the spoolie off on the edge of the container, or remove some excess with a tissue if you feel like you’re getting too much. Less is more!
Step 5 (Optional): Brush it out
Simply leave as-is. Or, for a softer, more fluffy brow, try applying your brow gel, letting it dry, and then using a clean spoolie to brush through the brow.
