Are you tired of spending precious minutes every morning trying to perfect your eyebrow makeup? If so, powder brows might be the answer to your prayers! Powder brows, also known as ombre brows, or microshading, are a permanent makeup technique that gives you beautifully defined and filled-in eyebrows without the hassle of daily maintenance. In this guide, we'll delve into everything you need to know about powder brows.
What Are Powder Brows?
Powder brows involve depositing pigment into the skin using a tattoo machine and needle to create a soft, powdered effect. Unlike microblading, which involves creating individual hair-like strokes, powder brows create a more filled-in look similar to that achieved with eyebrow powder or pencil.
The Process
During a powder brows session, our skilled artists will work with you to determine the perfect shape, color, and intensity for your eyebrows. Once the desired look is agreed upon, the tattoo process begins. A numbing cream is applied throughout to minimize discomfort. Clients usually rate the discomfort at a 5/10 - so don't worry! It is not painful at all!
Benefits of Powder Brows
Low Maintenance: Powder brows last longer than eyebrow makeup and does not wash off. Perfect for beachy days, or a sweat sesh at the gym. Powder brows often last anywhere from one to three years before a touch-up is needed.
Natural-Looking Results: Powder brows create a soft and natural-looking finish that complements your facial features.
Suitable for All Skin Types: Unlike microblading, which may not be suitable for oily or sensitive skin types, powder brows are suitable for all skin types.
Time Saver: Countless number of clients say powder brows have transformed their lives by shaving off 10 minutes each morning. Not to mention - your brows will look their best each and every day, with no bad brow days.
Aftercare
Proper aftercare is essential to ensure the longevity of your powder brows. You may wash your brows daily but avoid getting them soaking wet (from saunas, pools, sweat, showers) for the first few days after the procedure, and refrain from applying makeup or skincare products directly onto the treated area. It's also important to avoid sun exposure, as this can cause the pigment to fade prematurely. Click here to read our detailed aftercare plan for our clients.
Maintenance
While powder brows are long-lasting, they do require occasional touch-ups to maintain their appearance. Depending on your skin type and lifestyle, you may need a touch-up every 12 to 18 months to keep your brows looking fresh and vibrant.
Conclusion Say goodbye to smudged eyebrows and hello to flawless, long-lasting results with powder brows! Whether you're looking to enhance your natural brows or achieve a more defined look, powder brows offer a convenient and low-maintenance solution that's sure to leave you feeling confident and beautiful.
