You may never have heard of them, but powder brow tattoos have been around for a LONG time. They actually predate their more famous tattoo cousin - microblading. While microblading or feathering is definitely more trendy, powder brows are here to stay.
What Are Powder Brows?
Powder brow tattooing is a machine method that uses cosmetic tattoo needles to implant thousands of dots of colour into the brows. After healing, powder brows give the appearance of having ‘powdered’ in your brows. Which is why we very unimaginatively call it ‘powder’ brows! The soft powder tattoo is the newest version of the powder brow tattoo. It uses the single FINEST possible cosmetic tattoo needle which gives an even softer, more airbrushed effect and is gentler to your skin.
How Is The Soft Powder Brow Tattoo Done?
After mapping out your ideal brow shape, the smallest cosmetic tattoo needle implants VERY fine dots of pigment into your skin. These super fine dots are implanted within your precisely mapped out brow shape. This airbrush of colour then heals into a beautifully soft, powdery effect. The result is perfectly ‘powdered’ in brows 24/7. Ummm, yes please.
How Long Does It Last?
Unlike traditional body tattoos, eyebrow tattoos are designed to fade. This is to accommodate the ever changing nature of our faces and hair colour. Trust me, you don’t want to still be rocking the brows you had at 30 when you’re a silver haired nanna.
The Soft Powder Brow Tattoo lasts approximately 1 - 2 years or more, making it one of the longest lasting types of eyebrow tattoo. The fine dots of pigment are implanted at the lowest layers of the epidermis, so that colour is retained for as long as possible. Microblading doesn’t last as long, because it can’t safely reach the lowest layers of the epidermis.
Soft Powder Brows Is The Longest Lasting and Safest Technique
The Soft Powder Brow Tattoo is the gentlest way to create long lasting, perfectly ‘powdered’ in brows. It is important for cosmetic tattoos to last as long as possible so that they don’t have to be touched up too often. Frequent touch ups create unnecessary trauma to the skin. And your wallet!
