Benefit Cosmetics 24-HR Brow Setter Clear Brow Gel with Lamination Effect
by Benefit Cosmetics · makeup
Editor's Take
Benefit chose serious hold over gentleness here, and the lamination effect earns its name, though the fast-drying polymer grip comes with a distinctly synthetic bill.
Four-pillar formula scores
- Efficacy: 8.5 / 10
- Modern Tech: 6.5 / 10
- Clean Beauty: 2.8 / 10
- Sustainability: 5.9 / 10
The Verdict
The efficacy band is Excellent: Acrylates Copolymer and AMP-Acrylates Copolymer provide firm, durable hold for brushed-up or laminated brows. Technology lands in the Modern band, with Alcohol speeding dry-down and PEG-12 Dimethicone keeping the film more flexible. Clean performance is Poor, while sustainability is Mixed, reflecting the drying potential and persistent synthetic materials. A credible pick for maximum brow control, not a gentle everyday groomer.
