I still remember the first time I tried brow pomade—let’s just say my brows were more “angry caterpillars” than “snatched arches.” But after some trial and error (and a little help from my bestie), I finally got the hang of it! Now, brow pomade is my go-to for getting those perfectly sculpted, Instagram-worthy brows. And guess what? It’s not as hard as it looks!
A brow pomade is a creamy, pigmented formula used to shape, define, and fill in eyebrows. Apply with an angled brush, using light strokes to outline and fill sparse areas. Blend with a spoolie for a natural look, and clean up with concealer for sharp, defined arches.

My Best Eyebrow Pomade
Let’s talk about the star of the show: the L’Oréal Paris Brow Stylist Frame and Set (available on Amazon). This creamy brow pomade comes with a precise angled brush and a spoolie, making it super easy to shape and fill your brows. The lightweight, waterproof formula glides on smoothly, allowing you to create hair-like strokes for a natural yet defined look. And trust me, once it sets, it’s not going anywhere—no smudging, no fading, just flawless brows all day long.
How to Use a Brow Pomade
Now that you’ve got the right product, let’s get into the step-by-step process to achieve those dreamy, sculpted brows!
Step #1: Clean Your Brows
Start with a fresh canvas. Use a cotton pad soaked in L’Oréal Paris Micellar Cleansing Water Complete Cleanser Waterproof – All Skin Types (available on Amazon) to remove any oil, dirt, or leftover product from your brows. This helps the pomade adhere better and last longer.
Step #2: Brush It Out
Use the spoolie (included with the pomade) to comb through your brows. This helps you see your natural shape and preps the hairs for product application.
Step #3: Grab Your Pomade
Dip your angled brush into the L’Oréal Paris Brow Stylist Frame and Set (available on Amazon) pomade, then lightly tap off the excess. Remember, a little goes a long way!
Step #4: Outline Your Shape
Using light, short strokes, outline the natural shape of your brows. Pay extra attention to defining your arch—it’s what gives your brows that lifted, polished look. If you make a mistake, no worries! Just grab a cotton swab with a little micellar water and clean up the edges.
Step #5: Fill in Sparse Areas
Go back in with the angled brush and use gentle, hair-like strokes to fill in any gaps. Keep it light-handed—building up color gradually will give you the most natural-looking results.
Step #6: Build Up Your Look
Continue adding small strokes until you reach your desired level of definition. Whether you want soft, natural brows or bold, dramatic arches, this step lets you control the intensity.
Step #7: Comb and Blend
Use the spoolie to brush through your brows, blending out any harsh lines. This step helps distribute the pomade evenly for a softer, more natural look.
Step #8: Fine-Tune with Concealer
For that extra wow factor, grab the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Full Wear Concealer Waterproof, Full Coverage (available on Amazon) and a small, tapered brush. Apply a tiny amount around the edges of your brows to sharpen the shape and clean up any mistakes. Blend well to avoid harsh lines!
And there you have it—perfectly sculpted brows in just a few simple steps! Whether you’re going for natural and fluffy or bold and defined, brow pomade is a game-changer. So go ahead, grab your L’Oréal Paris Brow Stylist Frame and Set (available on Amazon), and let’s get those arches looking flawless!
