Eyebrow dye gives a better staining result than any decorative cosmetics. A pencil and shadows are applied every morning, paint – every two weeks, regular or monthly resistant. Eyebrow coloring can be done both in the salon by a cosmetologist, and independently at home.

What are the colors for eyebrows

Eyebrow paint, which is better for home use, and which is suitable only for the salon, depends on the composition, texture and technology of use.

• Cream paint is conveniently applied independently at home, it has a thick creamy consistency, evenly lays on the hairs and does not flow. For complete staining, it is enough to leave the product in the hairs for 5-10 minutes. The standard set includes a set of tubes with a coloring cream and an oxidizing agent, a spatula for applying the composition, and instructions for use.

The composition of the coloring preparation: water, cetearyl alcohol, propylene glycol, cetearet-23, polyethylene glycol ether and cetearyl alcohol, triethanolamine, ethylene glycol polymer, sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium erythorbate, cetrimonium chloride, preservatives.

Also, hydrogenated castor and other vegetable oils are added to the eyebrow dye to soften the action of aggressive synthetic components. The oxidizing agent consists of water, hydrogen peroxide, which regulates the viscosity of acrylate and the stabilizer dysodium EDTA.

Cream paint dries the skin and hairs, after applying it, the eyebrows need additional nutrition and hydration.

• 
  Eyebrow gel-paint is a more liquid than cream-paint gel-like texture; evenly distributing it through the hairs is a little more difficult. After application, the gel must be soaked for 10 minutes for staining, after which the residues should be removed using a special tonic.

In the package: 10 sachets of 0,17 fluid ounce each with paint and an oxidizing agent, 5 sachets of 0,17 fluid ounce of argan oil, a tonic for removing paint from the skin in a 2,03 fluid ounce plastic bottle, applicator, measuring spoon. 3% peroxide based oxidizing agent.

In addition to coloring pigments and other ingredients similar to the contents of cream paint, the gel includes moisturizers, antioxidants, lactic acid and allantoin. After applying this drug for coloring eyebrows, the skin does not need special care.

• Henna for eyebrows is a natural dye from the leaves of the plant Lausonia, allows you to get shades from red to brown. Sold in jars of 10-25 g, consisting of a mixture of Iranian henna powder or powder, dehydrated citric acid, sodium perborate, magnesium carbonate, 4-aminoaniline and soapstone.

Before applying henna to eyebrows, it should be diluted with warm water to the consistency of the paste.

Staining lasts longer than when using synthetic paint: from 15 to 40 minutes, during which time the paint may dry out and crumble.

The product is suitable for use at home, henna has healing properties – it nourishes and strengthens the hair follicles, therefore, after staining, eyebrows do not need additional care. The remaining powder is washed off with water.

• Permanent paint is used in beauty salons for tattoos of the skin with a depth of 1/32 inch, the main areas of application are tattooing of the lips and eyebrows. Permanent eyebrow modeling is done in the salon and consists of 2 stages – the primary procedure and after 30 days correction.

  

Pigments for permanent makeup come in different consistencies: powder, cream, gel and liquid. The composition is divided into 2 groups: mineral based on metal oxides and synthetic, obtained from organics. Vegetable paints have a large palette of shades, inorganic ones are more persistent.

How long does the effect last

Eyebrow dye, which holds better and lasts longer, is a pigment for microblading. Applied with the use of mineral paint, permanent makeup lasts from 3 to 6 years , and the organic pigment fades for 18-24 months. The downside is that the procedure is carried out exclusively using a special machine in the cabin.

You can use simple paint, gel or henna yourself. After applying the gel, the tone from the hairs is washed off within 10 days. The effect after staining with ordinary paint lasts 14-20 days. More resistant, henna lasts for a period of 2 weeks not only hairs, but also the skin, it must be applied very carefully.

Suitable colors and shades according to the color type of appearance

When choosing a shade of paint for eyebrows, you need to pay attention to the shape of the eyebrows. For example, if rare eyebrows are painted in rich dark colors, this will emphasize the lack of hairs on the superciliary arch.

The shade and condition of the skin of the face is important, because contrasting colors emphasize the disadvantages – redness, acne, age-related changes in the form of wrinkles or pigmentation. It is recommended to select a color 2-3 shades darker than hair so that it also matches eye color.

Makeup artists advise taking into account the prevailing color scheme of appearance when choosing makeup. In accordance with the color shades of the skin, hair and eyes, the division into cold and warm color types is accepted, each of which has its own characteristic signs.

In the hair color of representatives of a warm color type, there is yellowness or red color: chestnut, honey, all shades of red, wheat, as well as warm shades of light brown. The iris of the eyes is saturated, opaque: dark gray, gray-green, gray-blue, dark brown. The skin radiates warmth, characteristic colors – peach, bronze and beige.

A striking version of the cold color type is a brunette with rich, pure black hair and marbled white or olive skin. Eye color: clear blue, gray, serene, hazel. Blond hair is characterized by cold colors such as platinum blond or ash blond. The skin is white, light beige or olive.

For a cold color type

For “cold” blondes with blue, green and light gray eyes, all shades of gray from graphite to silver are suitable for eyebrows, for brown-eyed – cold beige, ash-blond. Brunettes, regardless of the color of their eyes and skin, it is better to choose a pure black color.

For a warm color type

Eyebrow dye, which best emphasizes the beauty of a warm color type
, is terracotta for redheads, and all shades of brown for brown-haired women and owners of dark hair. Blondes are recommended light hazel and dark honey colors.

If the paint has gone beyond the contour of the eyebrow, then it can be removed by wetting a cotton swab in makeup remover.
