Powder Brows (also known as Ombre Brows/Shaded Brows) is a semi-permanent make-up procedure, through the manual process of inserting pigment into the top layers of skin.

The procedure is a two step process (initial insertion of pigment & touch-up 6-8 weeks later).

We create the desired fullness and design of the eyebrows.

This technique differs from Microblading in that we create a misty, powder filled brow resembling the look of makeup application, or a fresh eyebrow tint.

They are semi-permanent, in that most fade over time if no additional procedure is performed.

The tails of the brow are darker, and as you move towards the front of the brow it starts to fade.

The effects will be waterproof and smudge-proof.

It lasts longer than Microblading, typically around 2 years on average.

Results are not determined until the touch-up application is completed.

Powder Brows can last for 1-3 years. A touch up is required 6-8 weeks after the initial appointment. We suggest a yearly “Colour Boost” to maintain your procedure colour integrity.

Clients that choose a soft look, light colour shade or did not follow the after care instructions may require more touch up appointments.

Factors that will cause your semi-permanent brow tattoo to fade faster:

• Tanning bed / sun exposure

• Exfoliating

• Oily skin

• Medical conditions

Pain varies from person to person. People who wax or pluck their eyebrows regularly will find the procedure painless whereas someone who has never touched their eyebrows may feel some discomfort.

A safe topical anesthetic cream can be applied to ease the procedure for you.

A wide range of colors are available to complement your skin tone and hair color. The colour chosen will specially match your natural skin and hair tone.

Safety is our number one priority and we adhere to strict infection control standards. One time use sterile disposable needles are always used, which are opened in front of each client.
