What is permanent makeup and what are its benefits? Facial tattooing is a real salvation for the modern woman

Correctly adjusted, beautifully defined eyebrows are an important component of any girl’s image. Correct makeup helps to emphasize the beauty of the eyes, sharpen facial features, and make the image deeper and more mysterious.

Some people are lucky by nature to have thick, dark, wide eyebrows, which are very popular now. Others are a little less fortunate - those who have light or very sparse eyebrows.

Due to inept plucking or due to deformation of the skin, hairs may grow poorly or not grow at all. In this case, you have to constantly tint them.

Eyebrow tattooing is a salvation for girls who are forced to tint them every day.

Eyebrow tattooing or permanent makeup is the introduction of paint under the top layer of skin. Unlike a tattoo, which remains for life, permanent makeup has a wear life of one to three years, i.e. it needs to be updated periodically.

Tattooing is done not only on the eyebrows, but also on the lips and eyelids.

Permanent eyebrow makeup is necessary for those women who tint them every day because they don’t like the color, width or curve, as well as for those who have scars in this area, which is why the hairs do not grow.

This video will tell you how to do eyebrow tattooing correctly:

It’s worth noting right away in which cases tattooing should not be done:

• infectious blood diseases;
• epilepsy;
• poor blood clotting;
• keloid scars;
• herpes;
• conjunctivitis;
• period.

Which type of tattoo with or without shading is better, application procedure

How does the procedure for applying permanent makeup take place? The procedure is performed by a master who is required to use new consumables - needles, gloves, napkins, etc. The work is carried out with a special machine for permanent makeup.

Before this, be sure to apply painkillers. Usually, thanks to anesthesia, the client feels virtually no pain, only a slight tingling sensation. Only in some places it may hurt.

To date, several application techniques have already been developed., with which you can select perfect option every girl.

Microblading - what is it?

Some add another method to the three above - microblading or 6d tattooing. It's being done manually with a special tool similar to a blade.

The difference from tattooing is that it is not applied so deeply and, accordingly, lasts much less - 6-8 months.

The advantages of this technique are very realistically drawn eyebrows. The 6d technique itself involves a detailed drawing of each hair, it looks like shading, which go at different angles, intertwining with each other in places - very similar to real eyebrows.

The type of tattoo should be chosen individually for yourself. It is best, of course, to seek a recommendation from a specialist master.

If you want to change the shape and make your eyebrows darker and more expressive, then it is better to choose a shot, if you want to slightly emphasize and make the image lighter and more natural, then the hair method.

Care for permanent eyebrow makeup and how long does it take for the crust to come off?

Unfortunately, you won’t be able to come out immediately beautiful after the procedure of applying permanent eyebrows. Most likely, you will not like what you see in the mirror immediately after the procedure - the first couple of hours there may be swelling and discharge of ichor.

After all, a newly applied tattoo is, in fact, a wound. In order for it to heal quickly, and at the same time, the tattoo does not lose its color, you need to use special products.

After this you need to apply cotton swab healing ointment. This should be done several times a day so that the eyebrows do not have time to dry out.

You should not evaluate the width and color of the eyebrows until they have healed. Most often, unhealed eyebrows look brighter and wider than they actually will be.

In order not to spoil your tattoo, you need to adhere to the following rules:

1. For the first two to three days, do not wet your eyebrows with water.
2. Do not apply cosmetics to the eyebrow area.
3. Do not visit the bathhouse or sauna during healing.
4. Do not touch, do not scratch, do not move your eyebrows too much, sleep carefully.
5. On day 3-4 a crust will begin to appear. You will need to get used to it, because you will need to walk with it for a week or two. Also, do not touch it or remove it yourself.
6. Use healing ointments regularly and do not let the crust dry out too much.

Everything you need to know about eyebrow tattooing and where to get it done, watch this video:

Correction

Even after the crust comes off on its own, the healing procedure will continue. You can tell by touching your eyebrows - they are still very sensitive and may even hurt.

Complete healing occurs within a month.

One and a half months after the first application procedure, correction is carried out. It is required. This is done in order to adjust the color, shape, and fill in the remaining gaps.

After the correction, the same recovery stage follows. It is worth noting that hair tattooing heals faster and easier because there is less damaged skin.

How long does a tattoo last and how often should it be done?

Eyebrow tattooing - how long does it last? Depending on the application method, your skin type, as well as external circumstances, permanent tattooing can last from 1 to 3 years. Most often, correction is required after a year or a year and a half.

In fact, the tattoo is almost never completely removed. It simply fades, becomes blurred, and loses its primary color. From brown it can turn into pink, from black - into gray-blue.

Therefore, having made a tattoo once, you will have to update it periodically. It will be possible to completely remove it only with the help of laser exposure.

How to prolong the effect of permanent eyebrows

To prolong wearing a tattoo you need to follow some recommendations:

• Do not stay in the sun or in a solarium for a long time - the color simply fades.
• Do not scrub the skin too much or do strong peelings in this area.
• Nicotine and alcohol also contribute to the rapid fading of pigment.

But this does not guarantee that the effect of tattooing will last for a long time.

Mainly it all depends on the technique, the artist himself, the oiliness of your skin, as well as proper care after the procedure.

Can a tattoo not take root?

It also happens that the pigment does not adhere well, and the tattoo comes off in places or completely. Most often, the reason for this is not the professionalism of the artist, but namely: an incorrectly chosen tattoo technique or incorrect application.

What does tattooing look like step by step?

Paint may also be the cause. Bad quality or not proper care. Everything is purely individual. The guilt can be very oily skin, pathological processes in it or other reasons.

The percentage of people whose tattoos do not last is very small, and there is no need to worry in vain. Anyway, good master will be able to correct his work or offer the client an alternative.

The concept of permanent makeup procedure has firmly entered our lives. Even those who have no need for it are well aware of it. After all, well-defined, thick, wide eyebrows are now becoming popular - and girls are trying to follow fashion.

This is where the need for tattooing arises, because touching up with a pencil, eye shadow or gel every day takes a lot of time.

Tattooing is not free from its shortcomings - it takes a long time to heal, and during this time the eyebrows do not look particularly attractive, there is always the fear that the artist will not understand or will do something bad, and you have to live with it all your life.

But this procedure is worth it - and many girls who suffered from sparse, light, expressionless eyebrows will agree with this.

Let the discussion, sketching and color selection take an hour - you must be confident in your choice, and then the result will please you. The tattoo itself is not scary, bad artists are scary and not proper care for a tattoo.

What is permanent makeup? This question interests every woman who cares about her appearance and wants to always look well-groomed. Permanent makeup is a cosmetic procedure that can be used to change or emphasize the shape of eyebrows, eyes and lips by introducing colored pigment into the upper layers of the epidermis.

This procedure perfectly hides visual imperfections of the face and provides permanent makeup for 3-5 years. Therefore, after permanent makeup, a woman always looks well-groomed and chic. It’s also worth understanding what it looks like and how it’s done

Differences from tattooing

Many people are interested in how permanent makeup is performed, techniques, what it is, and how permanent makeup differs from tattooing. Permanent makeup is a tattoo that stays on a person’s body throughout his life, and permanent makeup is performed by micropigmentation of the skin for up to 5 years, and its stability depends on many factors (for example, exposure to ultraviolet radiation on the face, which contributes to pigment fading, metabolic characteristics processes in the facial area, etc.).

When performing permanent makeup, punctures up to 1 mm are made, and the tattoo is applied to a depth of up to 2 mm. This is the main difference between the two procedures. In addition, the dyes used may also differ.

During the makeup procedure apply natural dyes, which allow you to achieve natural shades close to skin color. After a certain time, they dissolve, dissolve and disappear. Synthetic additives are used for tattooing, as they are necessary for the stability of the pigment.

Despite the fact that there are such differences, artists often call permanent makeup tattooing.

Benefits of permanent makeup:

• does not wash off with water, so you can visit the pool and sauna without worrying about your appearance;
• there is no need for regular eyebrow plucking;
• there is no need to apply makeup daily;
• it is possible to make freckles and moles that will look very natural;
• does not clog skin pores and does not cause irritation like decorative cosmetics.

Thanks to these advantages, women prefer permanent makeup. However, we should not forget that such a procedure is classified as medical, so it is necessary to clearly understand what difficulties may arise when deciding to do permanent makeup.

How to prepare for the procedure

Permanent tattooing always leads to injury to the skin, so you need to properly prepare before the procedure.

1. Should not be taken 1 day before the procedure medicines blood thinners (for example, aspirin).
2. It is also undesirable to use alcoholic drinks, coffee and seafood, as they help inhibit blood flow and lymph activity, which can cause uneven distribution of pigment in the epidermis.
3. If you are prone to allergies, then before the procedure it is better to take a test for the injected pigment.
4. Injury to the upper tissues of the oral area can trigger the activity of the herpes virus, which is found in the human body. For this reason, it is recommended to take anti-herpes pills (for example, Acyclovir) 5 days before the procedure and 5 days after.

But you can see what it looks like and how it’s done in the article at the link.

Eyebrow pigmentation

During the procedure, highly dispersed color pigments are introduced into 3 main areas of the face: eyebrows, eyelids and lips.

Persistent eyebrow pigmentation helps eliminate such cosmetic imperfections, like asymmetry or irregular shape, shapelessness, dullness of the eyebrows, the presence of large gaps between the hairs. Properly drawn, symmetrical eyebrows will help give expressiveness to the eyes and highlight the beauty of the face.

How is permanent makeup done? To carry out the procedure, a special apparatus with a container for pigment and a thin disposable needle is used. All instruments and gloves are printed before the procedure begins in front of the client and discarded immediately after use.

First, the master draws the shape of the eyebrows with a felt-tip pen, similar in color to the pigment. If the result is satisfactory to the client, the master will begin the main work.

You might also find it useful to know what it looks like and what it’s done for.

It must be remembered that only qualified specialist will be able to ensure the safety of the procedure and achieve desired result. Quality materials and the work of a professional cannot be cheap, and if the master agrees to perform the work for too low a price, this may mean that low-quality materials will be used in the procedure. Therefore, you should carefully consider the choice of a specialist.

For permanent eyebrow makeup, a cosmetologist can use 2 methods: shading. If necessary, these techniques can be combined.

Hair technique - This is the drawing of individual eyebrow hairs along their entire length. Using this method, you can give sparse eyebrows more thick form, completely change the shape of the eyebrows, make it ideal and symmetrical, even if your hairs are completely absent.

During the procedure, pigment is injected under the skin using a needle to a depth of no more than 1.5 mm. Pain relief may be used.

Many cosmetologists advise doing this, including you can do such procedures at home.

Here's a video of how eyebrow pigmentation occurs:

Masters use 2 methods hair tattoo eyebrows:

1. Oriental– in this case, the hairs are drawn in different direction and different lengths, so eyebrows look more natural and neat. Quite often a little shading is also used.
2. European- means “hair to hair.” In this case, hairs of the same length are drawn parallel to each other.

The hair technique for permanent eyebrow makeup should be trusted only to a qualified cosmetologist with extensive experience.
The shading technique looks like lining your eyebrows with regular eye shadow and a pencil and is suitable for many women who want to make their eyebrows more expressive. This method is not suitable only for those who have very sparse eyebrows.
The first time the procedure lasts about 2 hours, correction takes approximately 40 minutes.

When carrying out such procedures, it is worth understanding

Lip pigmentation

Permanent makeup - lip tattooing will help improve the beauty of the lips, namely:

Lip pigmentation is pretty painful procedure even with the use of anesthesia. It is best to carry out lip tattooing for women in the middle menstrual cycle, because it was at this time pain threshold becomes lower than during menstruation, and the procedure is much easier to tolerate.

You won’t be able to get the desired lip beauty right away; you will need to wait about 2 weeks to see the result. Therefore, you should not get a lip tattoo before any important event. In addition, about 1-2 months after the procedure you will feel increased dryness in the lip area. To eliminate this effect, you need to regularly apply a moisturizing balm to your lips.

The following techniques are used for permanent lip makeup:

1. Lip contour tattoo– gives an even, clear contour. With this method, the width of the lips does not increase, the shape does not change, and the procedure is performed on top of the natural contour. Lasts from 1 year to 7 years. You can see how laser tattoo removal works:

2. Tattoo along the lip contour with shading– will enlarge the lips, making them more convex. With this method, the cosmetologist goes slightly beyond the natural contour of the lips, and paints the gap with pigment. As a result, lips look natural. But how it is done and what the result of such a procedure looks like can be seen in the article at the link.

Currently, lip tattooing with a 3D effect is also used, in which 5-6 different pigments are used. Using this method, you can achieve additional fullness of your lips, or vice versa, make plump lips less prominent.

Eyelid pigmentation

Permanent eyelid makeup is lining the upper or lower eyelid, drawing the space between the eyelashes.

When tattooing the eyelids, the needle is not inserted deeply, no more than 0.8 mm. But despite this, eyelid pigmentation lasts about 8-10 years. Such a tattoo cannot be changed, so the choice of a tattooist should be taken very seriously.

Eyelid tattoo differs from other types of tattooing in that it is performed without anesthesia. This is because the anesthetic may irritate the eyes and skin of the eyelids.
You should not use mascara or eye shadow during the period of healing and removal of crust from the eyelid area, as excess friction can cause additional irritation.

For permanent eyelid makeup, one or several techniques are used. You can choose to shade only the upper or lower eyelid, make graceful arrows, draw the spaces between the eyelashes.
Feathering upper eyelid: with this method, the cosmetologist first draws lines with a pencil, agrees with the client on the designated shape, and only after that introduces the selected pigment into the eyelid area. The whole process lasts about 2 hours. As a result, the makeup looks like the effect of applied shadows. You can choose either light tinting only on the tips of the eyelids, or introducing pigment to the entire surface of the eyelids. To prevent inflammation and speed up the healing process after the procedure, an antiseptic is applied to the eyelids.

Shading the lower eyelid– with this method, a thin line is drawn under the lower eyelashes, which widens slightly towards the outer corner of the eye. As a result, the look becomes softer and the eyes become more expressive.

Drawing arrows is the most common tattoo technique on the eyes. You can choose the required thickness and length of the arrows; usually a black pigment is used for this. It is not recommended to apply arrows to the lower eyelid, since even with slight swelling of the eyelids, arrows will only emphasize these imperfections.

The technique of filling the interlash space is painting the skin areas at the base of the eyelashes and sketching the interlash spaces. This tattooing technique makes the look expressive and the eyelashes more voluminous. Often this technique is combined with shading of the eyelids or applying arrows along the upper eyelid. Pigmentation is usually carried out in black or dark brown shades.

To speed up the healing process after the procedure and consolidate the results obtained, you should follow proper care for permanent makeup:

Thus, permanent makeup done by a qualified experienced craftsman, will not only reduce a woman’s time for daily makeup application, but will also help hide existing flaws and highlight her advantages.

Humanity learned about tattoos quite a long time ago, but only at the end of the 20th century about what permanent makeup is. With the invention of the American cosmetologist O'Reilly, who in 1880 invented the first electric machine for creating tattoos, it became possible to tattoo designs faster. The adaptation of this technology to permanent makeup occurred gradually. Special thin needles, absolutely safe dyes and high-speed machines for making designs appeared.

Tattoo or permanent makeup is a method color correction shapes of lips, eyebrows, eyelids, which allows, practically without injuring the skin, to create the desired contour of eyebrows, eyes and lips. This procedure must be classified as medical. The patient must realistically imagine what difficulties he will encounter if he decides to do permanent makeup.

How the procedure is performed and its consequences.
Permanent eye makeup-tattoo allows you to forget once and for all about the need for constant eyeliner. It favorably emphasizes the shape of the eyes, visually enlarges or reduces them. In permanent eye makeup there is a division into the upper and lower eyelids. Emphasizing the ciliary edge of the upper eyelid makes the eyes more expressive: the eyelashes appear fluffy, the pupil appears brighter. This makeup looks spectacular on any face, with any shape and shape of eyes. Emphasizing the ciliary edge of the upper eyelid can be independent procedure, can “enter the arrow”.

The lower eyelid is not always emphasized: often drawing both the upper and lower eyelids visually narrows the eye. In addition, emphasizing the lower eyelid can visually lower the level of the eyes, which is not always the desired result.

There is only one row of eyelashes on the lower eyelid. A very thin line is applied near the roots of the eyelashes or under the eyelashes. clear line, thus visually enlarging the eyes.

Women who are tired of torturing themselves with regular eyebrow plucking and epilation will definitely appreciate the benefits of permanent makeup-eyebrow tattoo. Tattooing can be applied as a separate the finest line, and repeat completely natural eyebrows, and each hair is drawn separately. Any shape and thickness possible.

But the competent use of all available technologies and techniques, such as drawing the contour, pigmentation, allows you to make the nipples more expressive and, of course, sexy. This procedure is absolutely safe.

Besides! Permanent makeup is “prescribed” for those who have to touch up, mask, or paint over something on their face several times a day with cosmetics in their hands in front of the mirror. It allows without injuring delicate skin face, change the shape and color of lips, eyebrows, highlight the eyes. You can apply piquant moles if you wish. Is it possible to solve more serious problems- hide the “cleft lip”, disguise small scars, spots.

"cleft lip";
alopecia (loss of eyebrows and eyelashes);
facial injuries and consequences of reconstructive plastic surgery;
will help correct and emphasize the contours of the nipple halo after mastopexy surgery.

We must be prepared for weak and average painful sensations, although topical anesthesia is used during the micropigmentation procedure. After the procedure, slight swelling may occur, which does not disfigure the face, but slightly increases the volume of the lips and eyelids. Eyebrows, as a rule, do not swell. The next day this goes away, but over the next 4-5 days the contour will be 50% brighter, and on the lips up to 80% brighter, until a very delicate crust, more like peeling, comes off. The paint that has been absorbed will be less bright than immediately after the procedure.
The shade of paint can vary depending on the pigmentation of the client’s skin and it is very difficult to determine exactly how it will turn out in the end. The shade can also change at any time due to the use of new medications or prolonged exposure to the sun without protective cream.

To accurately select the color, it is necessary to take into account the individual skin color. And this is quite difficult. Therefore, to help the specialist, guides have been developed that contain information about individual selection pigments for 300 skin types (including problem ones), which are carried out not “by eye”, but based on precise mathematical calculations, precise recipes for mixing and correction are given bad shades.

The second and third procedures (possibly more) with a frequency of 4-6 weeks are needed to enhance the saturation of the contour and its correction, because the paint may be absorbed unevenly (this depends on the individual properties of the skin) and some areas may look paler, some brighter. By repetition, uniform saturation and symmetry of the pattern are achieved. The treatment areas must be lubricated with cream. Not recommended until complete healing apply makeup. It is not recommended to visit the sauna, swimming pool, solarium, or swim in the sea for 7-10 days. It is necessary to protect the face from direct sun rays, do not do other cosmetic procedures. After the procedure, there may be swelling in the eyes, which usually goes away in the evening. next day.

Immediately after the procedure, the specialist applies a special cream to the affected area, which has a bactericidal effect and relieves inflammation and irritation.

After the permanent makeup procedure, during the first day it is recommended to rinse the tattoo area with purified cool water to avoid the formation of a thick crust. IN as a last resort, if dryness occurs, you can use hygienic lipstick. You should start using products that accelerate skin regeneration from the second day. After this it is recommended to apply protective layer chapstick or sunscreen. During the healing process, direct exposure to ultraviolet rays and any steaming procedures (bath, sauna, cosmetic procedures) is excluded. You cannot remove the crust yourself. Final healing occurs after 3-4 weeks.

Remember that it is almost impossible to correct some problems with permanent makeup. physiological characteristics: deep-set eyes, drooping eyelids, “bags” under the eyes, but most natural “inaccuracies” can be corrected.

This procedure is already quite widely represented on the cosmetology services market, but cases of poor-quality tattooing are still not uncommon - blurred and blurred lines on the eyelids, incorrectly executed contours of the lips, sudden change eyebrow colors up to red or blue... This is due to the low professional level of the craftsmen. Tattooing is a very delicate and painstaking work.

The most difficult and important thing in the permanent makeup procedure - correct technique introduction. This concept includes: the required depth of pigment application, ideal character lines and uniformity of coloring. The main thing, of course, is the depth of the puncture, which is controlled only by the hand of the master. That's why right choice the master who will perform permanent makeup is very important task. This procedure must be performed by a qualified medical worker in compliance with all rules of asepsis and antiseptics, using special equipment and premises that meet the requirements treatment room.
Permanent makeup will become your companion for the coming years, so treat this process should be done as carefully as possible.

This is a gentle cosmetic tattoo in the upper layers of the skin. What distinguishes it from a regular tattoo is the depth of insertion of the coloring pigment. With a regular tattoo, a puncture is made to a depth of up to 2 mm; with permanent makeup, the punctures are no deeper than 0.5 mm. The shallow depth of the puncture ensures long-lasting makeup. Tattoo makeup is performed quality paints based on plant and mineral pigments. Plant pigments are influenced by blood circulation and cosmetic procedures are gradually washed away.
Mineral pigments remain in the injection sites longer, although they are susceptible to ultraviolet radiation. In general, permanent makeup washes out and fades gradually. Depending on the composition of the pigments, it lasts from 2 to 5 years. The paint contains synthetic additives that provide stability. After application and healing, the pigment penetrates deep into the skin, which ensures long-lasting tattoo makeup. The special structure of the pigment allows skin cells to process it over time, as if “eating it.” Thus, permanent eye makeup can be considered a temporary tattoo.

Needles, paints and other equipment for permanent makeup

Permanent makeup is a shallow puncture of the skin with a special needle. All equipment that comes into contact with the patient's skin must be disposable. It is better if the client sees how the master takes the equipment out of the packaging in front of him. The container in which the pigments are mixed is also disposable, like the mixing attachment of the mixer. After the procedure, all disposable instruments should be thrown away. Pigments are not saved for possible correction; they must be prepared for each procedure. The master must perform all procedures wearing rubber gloves. The tattoo needle is shaped like a bullet, which helps to insert it under the skin maximum amount pigment. For shading on the eyelids, special needles are used, which are welded in a checkerboard pattern in two rows. Such needles allow you to inject dyes with a minimum of trauma, evenly and shallowly.

• Light and sparse eyebrows are corrected using the technique of continuous shading without clear contours. The result is eyebrows that look like they were tinted with a pencil. If your eyebrows are naturally thick and dark, drawing individual hairs allows you to get a clear outline. The shape of the eyebrows will remain clear even with the gradual fading of the pigment. However, sprouted hairs must be removed every week to maintain the resulting eyebrow shape. There are often cases when correction is required, for example, a gap in the eyebrow contour after healing. Permanent eye makeup – This is an opportunity to change the shape of the eyes, making them larger. Perform contour makeup in the form of arrows different widths on the upper and lower eyelids. This can be a solid line above the eyelashes or painting the space between the eyelashes and. Less commonly used is a technique that imitates eye shadow.

Tattoo makeup on the eyes is more durable than all other types, because it fades within ten years.
• Lip makeup is often done in the form of a contour with shading. As with the eyes and eyebrows, the shape of the lips can be slightly changed, visually increasing the volume or making them more symmetrical. As in other types, lip tattooing should be close to natural color, so they select shades of red and light shades brown. The procedure eliminates daily use lipstick and its spreading beyond the contour of the lips.

Permanent eye makeup, lips, eyebrows is performed with anesthesia. The application procedure lasts up to 3 hours and is performed in 2-3 visits. Each area is processed for 30 to 40 minutes.

The result provides quality care. Healing takes up to 7 days. The first two days the makeup looks bright. The pigment, which mixes with the ichor and skin lymph, acquires dark brown color. Tattooing consists of small punctures and scratches, so after a couple of days a crust forms at the site of application. Underneath, the skin heals and absorbs the rejected pigment back. That is why the crust should not be too wet or forcibly removed. You can slightly soften the scratch with a cream that the specialist will recommend. If the crust is removed prematurely or gets too wet, a gap will appear in this area, which will require correction.

This is a long-term procedure and takes, on average, from 1 to 3 hours.

As for the price, it all depends on many factors:
- experience of the master;
- choice of technique and coloring pigment;
- venue (reputation of the tattoo parlor or beauty salon);
- the difficulty of tattooing.
Usually, the price fluctuates between 30-70 USD.

Types of permanent eyebrow makeup

The beauty industry is developing so quickly that almost every day something new appears. So tattooing is becoming increasingly saturated with new types and techniques. Among the main ones are:

1. Hair method, or “hair to hair” technique. The main advantage is to ensure maximum natural effect. Whereby? This technique involves drawing strokes that can be directed to one or different sides, have different lengths. Depending on this, European and Eastern varieties of this method are distinguished. The procedure is very long and painful, so it is most often performed under local anesthesia. The best option for those who have thick eyebrows and you only need to correct the form.

2. Shading, or shooting. Unlike the previous one, eyebrows after such a tattoo look as if you tinted them with shadows or a pencil. The pigment is applied in one continuous line, the boundaries of which are then shaded. Best suited for those who have light color hair, problem with eyebrow growth or lack thereof.
