Your eyebrows melting like ice in the sun? Not with this trick

36 degrees and it's getting even hotter! With fixing spray and brow gel, you can save your eyebrows from melting. But not in the way you think.
Who doesn't know it? You style your eyebrows in the morning, and by noon at the latest, they're drooping like a wet rag. Even my all-time favorite «Thick it. Stick it!» in ash brown from Nyx is giving up in the current temperatures.
Until one morning, still half-asleep, I reached for the setting spray and bathed my face in it.
First spray, then brush
«Shit, you haven't even finished your eyebrows yet!» I suddenly remembered. So I quickly brushed the brow gel onto the still-wet setting spray. To my surprise, my brows lasted until evening that day.
Since then, I always do it this way. The eyebrow gel combines wonderfully with the wet spray using the brush applicator – much better than if I apply the spray after the gel. Brush brows into shape, don't touch them anymore, ready to go. This even works when the gel is a bit older and (half) dried out.
I use the «Oil-Control Matt» spray from Catrice. The trick should work with any product, from matte to glowy.
