Price range
E.L.F. Forehead Carry, 8.8g (£6, elfcosmetics.co.uk): E.L.F. has introduced out some significantly spectacular merchandise over the previous yr, and that is up there with my favourites.
I used to be sceptical at first – the pot of gel requires a separate spoolie (E.L.F. Forehead Carry Applicator, £4, works nice, or you should purchase multi-packs of normal spoolies on Amazon) and is barely messier than utilizing a wax that is available in a tube with a brush hooked up.

Nonetheless, I discovered the system itself barely too sticky, which makes getting the feathery, zero-effort look that’s all around the catwalks this season troublesome to realize.

It doesn’t go gummy or change color over time, and nor does it trigger dandruff-like flakes in my brows as with another gels.
The most effective half, nevertheless, is the maintain.
The product description says it lasts 24 hours, and for as soon as I imagine it.
