The brow ridge is the bony shelf of the frontal bone over the eyes — the same neighborhood as the supraorbital rim. Looksmaxxing treats a strong, relatively low ridge as masculine and as a piece of hunter eyes (shadow). It is growth and sexed skeletal dimorphism, not a chewing muscle.
Bonesmashing the brow is the forum’s worst idea about this bone. Surgical brow augmentation (implant, cement) and reduction (FFS forehead setback) are named craniofacial operations. See Jordan Deschamps-Braly / FMS vs FFS — opposite wishes, same ridge.
