If you’ve succumbed to overplucking at some point or you’ve experienced hair loss, the best eyebrow growth serums can help you get some thickness back—no painful microblading necessary. “Similar to lash serums, over-the-counter eyebrow growth serums can be helpful for growing longer and thicker eyebrow hair,” Dustin Portela, DO, a board-certified dermatologist in Idaho, tells Glamour. To help you find the formulas that dermatologists say actually work, we asked experts for their recommendations, then tapped our editorial team and a group of testers to try them out. During evaluations, we reviewed ingredient lists, plus took notes on ease of use and overall efficacy. RevitaBrow was the standout favorite among makeup artists and the Glamour team because it was the most effective with noticeable results within a few weeks, along with the prescription FDA-approved Latisse. But we also included under-$20 picks, options for sensitive-skin, and more.

This brow enhancer takes the top spot on our list, as multiple experts we spoke to (including dermatologists, makeup artists, and beauty editors) raved about the formula’s effectiveness. “It contains a prostaglandin analog as well as saw palmetto and a biopeptin complex—two ingredients that help strengthen and condition hair follicles,” says Claire Wolinsky, MD, a board-certified dermatologist at Spring Street Dermatology in NYC. It’s a great pick for sensitive skin, too, since the brow gel is hypoallergenic and nonirritating. Plus, it’s vegan and cruelty-free.
“The wand makes this serum super easy to apply, and it works pretty quickly. It definitely filled in spots where my brows were having a hard time growing on their own,” says Jordin Bjelland, a makeup artist from Montana. “I began to see results after about four weeks of daily use, but it felt like six weeks was the sweet spot.”
