I was wondering what is the most optimal % minoxidil for eyebrow growth. I’ve looked into it a bit(granted not much) and it seems to be 2 or 3%. But why the fuck is every minoxidil solution i see for sale 5% or over. If you know of any good uk suppliers WITH THE MOST OPTIMAL % or have extra information on how to max my eyebrows with this would be much appreciated.

Anything above 5% can casue scalp irritation and also has the risk systemic absorption (minoxidil is a hypertension treatment when used systemically and will increase heart rate and bloating), despite having better penetration.
5% is well studied, has regulatory approval and is the optimal concentration.
Foam is also the optimal formulation

Don't bother and go buy a 5% bottle, you aren't gonna apply the recommend 1ml on eyebrows anyways.
Use a stainless steel roll-on to apply (so you aren't putting minox on your fingers) and then lock moisture with a proper moisturizer or a thin coat of castor oil

Minox is ethanol based so it can increases skin irritation, hence why moisturizing is important
