what is Ombré Powder Brows ?
Ombre powder brows is a semi-permanent makeup technique that creates a soft, shaded brow pencil look. The color is lighter at the front and gradually darkens toward the tail for a natural, defined finish.
​
​Pigment is applied to the epidermis (the outermost layer of your skin) but at a slightly deeper level than with microblading. This depth creates a more durable, soft, and powdered effect as mentionned above. The pigment is deposited about 1-2 millimeters into the skin, which is less deep than traditional tattoos, allowing for a more natural, gentle finish that typically lasts 1-3 years, depending on your skin type, pre-care and aftercare.
Because the pigment is applied deeper than with the microblading technique, the Ombré powder technique heals more evenly and tends to fade less quickly. This makes them the ideal choice for clients with oily skin or clients looking for a fuller, bolder brow that is low-maintenance and smudge-proof. Plus, the benefits go beyond just looking great — you can enjoy a vacation without worrying about reapplying your brows, swim without worry of washing them away, dance all night, or go out with the girls and leave your brow makeup at home! Perfect for anyone who wants to look effortless, no matter what your day throws at you!
