Powder Brows FAQs
The powder brows technique is a permanent make-up procedure that subtly creates fuller, more defined looking eyebrows with a soft-powder finish. It achieves this by using a device similar to a tattoo gun to deposit coloured pigment into the layers of skin beneath your brows.
Between 12 to 18 months. (Powder brows are preferred by those with oily skin as they tend to last longer than microblading, which can fade more quickly.)
There are six main styles of powder brows:Classic – leaves you with a solid yet subtle, and defined brow finish.Soft – results in a more powdery make-up effect.Soft ombre – creates a look that’s solid and defined at the eyebrow tail, but gets gradually lighter across the brow towards the top of the eyebrow and arch.Bold ombre – creates a defined eyebrow that’s bold at the eyebrow tails and arch, but gradually lightens as it reaches the eyebrow bulb.Combination – a mix of microblading eyebrow strokes and the powder brow effect.3D pixel ombre – inserts pigment in various sizes to create an arched eyebrow in a soft, medium or bold ombre style.
Do your research: look online for a permanent makeup artist near you and check their qualifications and reviews. Be sure to check their social media accounts too – you should be able to see images of their best work and comments from their clients.
Your appointment will start with an eyebrow cleanse. Your permanent makeup artist will then map out where pigment will be inserted, taking care to ensure the shape and measurements of your brows are exactly the same, and remove any stray or fine hairs that sit outside the outline they’ve just created.
Healing tends to take between 4-6 weeks, and during this period you’ll need to take particularly good care of your eyebrows, cleaning them regularly using cotton pads and sterile water. For the best results and fastest healing, follow the specific aftercare instructions given to you by your powder brow artist.
