Microblading vs. Eyebrow Tinting :
Microblading is another choice your esthetician might offer, as we discuss in another post. It involves tattooing on your eyebrows using tiny, hair-like incisions. Your natural brows will still be present, but they will be much better defined. The used dye lasts for 18 to 30 months while still semi-permanent before it gradually fades.
The main distinction between microblading and eyebrow tinting is that microblading will last longer than a tint, but the procedure can be uncomfortable and pricey. While a tint highlights the existing hairs, microblading can give the appearance of more brow hairs. While eyebrow tinting can be done at home, microblading must be done by a professional in a salon.
What Kinds of Eyebrow Tint Are There?
There are many different brow tints available right now, but these are the main three:
Henna using traditional PPD silver nitrate dye :
Nickel Silver :
By 2022, this formulation will be the only one that the FDA has approved for tinting brows, and it will also be the standard for tinting the area around the eyes. To deposit colour onto hair, it makes use of a chemical reaction that occurs naturally between silver nitrate, light, and iron oxide.
PPD :
PPD was specifically listed as a prohibited ingredient for use near the eyes in a recent FDA statement. This is primarily caused by two things: a high rate of allergic reactions and corrosive substances (hydrogen peroxide), which can harm the eyes if they come into contact with them. Make sure to carefully read the labels and pick the product that is best for you because some “plant-based tints” actually have PPD as the main ingredient.
Henna :
The flowering henna plant is the source of the semi-permanent dye known as henna. In Hindi and Urdu cultures, henna body art is also common; you may be familiar with it. Fingernails can be painted with henna.
