The consensus
What reviewers found
Synthesized across the trust-weighted source mix below.
NYX Control Freak Eyebrow Gel has the largest rating base among the clear gels here, nearly 44,000 verified-purchase ratings, but at a 4.2 average it sits a notch below the leaders. Buyers value it as a no-frills, inexpensive clear setting gel for everyday grooming: it tames and holds brow hairs in place without adding color, and at around $6 it's an easy grab. No independent testing or specialist-community signals were included for this candidate, so the verdict reflects a high-volume but slightly more divided customer consensus than the other gels.

NYX Control Freak Eyebrow Gel has the largest rating base among the clear gels here, nearly 44,000 verified-purchase ratings, but at a 4.2 average it sits a notch below the leaders. Buyers value it as a no-frills, inexpensive clear setting gel for everyday grooming: it tames and holds brow hairs in place without adding color, and at around $6 it's an easy grab.
No independent testing or specialist-community signals were included for this candidate, so the verdict reflects a high-volume but slightly more divided customer consensus than the other gels. The recurring complaints behind that lower average are a hold that some find too light for unruly brows and a brush a few reviewers consider stiff or oversized. For shoppers wanting a cheap, low-commitment clear gel for daily wear, it remains a popular pick, just not the strongest-rated one in the group.
