Formulation Deep Dive
The REFY Brow Sculpt Gel is a high-performance, water-based wax-gel hybrid designed to provide extreme hold and a laminated finish. The chassis utilizes a complex carrier system of water, Propylene Glycol, and Glycerin for hydration, paired with Glyceryl Stearate SE and Steareth-21 as emulsifiers to integrate a high-hold wax phase. This texture is achieved through a precise blend of Copernicia Cerifera (Carnauba) Wax and Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax, which offer structural integrity and film-forming properties without excessive tackiness. Active performance is driven by the synergistic combination of VP/VA Copolymer and PVP (Polyvinylpyrrolidone) for rigid, long-lasting hair setting, while Panthenol (Provitamin B5) and Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) provide conditioning and antioxidant benefits to the brow hairs. The formula is stabilized by a robust polymer network including Acrylates Copolymer and Hydroxyethylcellulose, and it is preserved using a system of Phenoxyethanol, 1,2-Hexanediol, and Caprylyl Glycol to ensure microbiological safety.
