Replacement for Benefit Gimme Brow

Options
I used to use Benefit Gimme Brow but they discontinued it and recalled it due to it causing infections in some people.

Can anyone recommend a similarly effective product? It is basically like mascara for eyebrows and comes with a small brush
What goes around comes around.....I hope!

    The NYX one is an excellent dupe.

    Apparently Glossier (online only) have a product called Boy Brow which looks similar (spoolie application rather than pencil/pen/separate brush applicator).


    If you were looking for a cheaper brand I can recommend the brand Kiko which seems to be on most highstreets I come across. Not sure if they have an exact copy of the Benefit product as they do seem to have a product line overhall every other season but I have not been disappointed by anything I've tried yet. Oh and it is a lot more affordable than my other suggestion! (Not that I don't rate it).

    Gimme Brow is coming back (Lisa Potter-Dixon who works for Benefit confirmed it on her Instagram stories)... so if you don't find a good dupe then hopefully you won't have to wait too long for the real thing :)

    I bought the Glossier Boy Brow and it seems to be good. It arrived a couple of days before I got an email from benefit telling me that Gimme Brow was back.....typical!
