Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

The quest for perfectly pruned eyebrows knows no bounds. From lamination and tinting to growth serums and pencils, there are myriad products that allow you to lean into your natural look or amp up the drama.

Whether you’re looking for definition, volume or colour, a good gel is the unsung hero of your make-up bag. After all, eyebrows have the power to change your whole look (see the latest bleached eyebrow trend).

But not all eyebrow gels are made equal. Streamlining your morning routine, Kevyn Aucoin’s two-in-one pen eliminates the need for multiple products (no wonder it’s got such a loyal following).

Letting you draw on individual hairs before setting your look with gel, the product earned a spot in our review of the best brow gels. Praised as a stellar all-rounder, here’s everything you need to know about Kevyn Aucoin’s true feather brow marker gel duo.

The ultimate two-in-one formula, our beauty writer Humeara Mohamed said she used this product every day since they first tried it. Designed with a gentle bristle (rather than felt-tip) brow pen tip at one end and a clear gel at the other, the brow pen comes in four shades: ash blonde, brunette, dark brunette and warm brunette, and is a firm favourite for transforming eyebrows.

“Draw on individual hairs in sparse areas first – a much more natural effect than filling with a solid colour – and then brush up and out with the clear gel for gloss and hold,” our tester said. “We were happy to find that our brows stayed lifted all day but still felt nice and soft.”
