I've been a long time user of Benefit's Gimme Brow. It adds a nice finishing touch to the brows and adds a bit of colour and thickness. It's great to use on it's own or on top of other products.
It's a cult favourite. Many makeup lovers and beauty bloggers love it alike.
However, there's a new contender out there now: Glossier's Boy Brow. This has stolen the hearts that once belonged to Gimme Brow.
I decided to put them head to head and see who comes out on top?
Packaging
Both products have beautiful packaging. Glossier's is more modern, classy and simple. Benefit is more fun, colourful and almost youthful looking. Both tubes are very sturdy, but the look really depends on your personal aesthetic.
As for the brushes, they are quite similar.
It's clear to see that the brush on Gimme Brow is more tapered at the end and there is a little bit more space between the bristles. I don't think that necessarily makes a difference though.
Formula
As for the formula of the products, they do differ. Both products add shape, volume and colour to your brows. However, they do have a different feel. GB dries down to be more stiff, while BB stays more flexible.
I decided to do a little comparison on my brows. I have nothing on my brows except for these products.
Left is GB, right is BB. Honestly, except for the colour, they look almost the same. In person, BB looks more natural and maybe slightly better.
Overall, they are both great products though. I would love to know which one you think is better.
