Powder Brows

Powder brows, also known as shading or ombre brows, is a micropigmentation technique that aims to create a soft, shaded effect on the brows, similar to what you would achieve with a brow pencil or shadow. This technique provides a fuller and more defined look to the brows without the individual strokes characteristic of microblading or nanoblading.

What does the procedure involve?

Instead of creating individual strokes that mimic natural hairs, the technician uses a micropigmentation device to deposit pigment into the skin in a more diffused manner, creating a shaded effect. This is achieved through oscillating movements that deposit small amounts of pigment into the epidermis.

Benefits of powder brows:

• Natural look: The shaded effect provides a softer and more natural appearance, as if the brows were lightly made up.
• Fill and define: Perfect for filling in sparse or gapped brows and defining their shape.
• Ideal for oily skin: Since there are no individual strokes, it’s less likely to smudge over time on oily skin.
• Less invasive: Compared to other techniques, the procedure is generally less painful and has a quicker healing time.

Who are powder brows ideal for?

• People with sparse brows: Fills in sparse areas and provides a fuller appearance.
• Those seeking a natural and subtle look: The shaded effect is very versatile and adapts to different styles.
• Oily skin: The technique is less likely to smudge on this skin type.
• People who prefer a more made-up look: The final result can be more intense or soft, depending on individual preferences.

How is the procedure performed?

1. Custom design: Your ideal brow shape is designed based on your facial features.
2. Anesthesia: A numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort.
3. Shading creation: Using a micropigmentation device, the shading is done manually, depositing pigment into the skin.
4. Aftercare: Detailed instructions are provided for caring for your brows during healing.

What are the differences from microblading and nanoblading?

• Microblading and nanoblading: Create individual strokes that mimic natural hairs.
• Powder brows: Creates a diffused shaded effect.
• Appearance: Microblading and nanoblading offer a more defined and hair-like appearance, while powder brows provide a softer and fuller finish.
