1 DAY TATTOO LASTING EYEBROW TINT




Review

The "secret" technique

I heard this from a Project Vanity commenter actually. Please holler if it was from you, can't find the comment na! Anyway, our hot tip is to swipe brows with makeup remover first to remove all traces of oil and dirt. This will allow the stain to penetrate better! It works. Without applying makeup remover, the tint is less pigmented. It's also more easily removed with each wash and the use of oil-based makeup removers.

I observed that with the makeup remover as "base", the stain is much, much more difficult to remove. I used bi-phase waterproof makeup remover to try to remove the tint and it only budges a bit. 0_0 For your reference, I used the Son & Park Beauty Water before the K-Palette tint.

There's a caveat though: this technique messes up the color. Natural Brown, which is not reddish at all on me when applied normally, turns quite brassy! It's not too off naman since I add a bit of makeup anyway (I'm OC remember), but still. You are warned. For your reference, the before and after full-faced photos shows Natural Brown the way it normally renders. The photos with Days 2 to 5 are the ones taken when I used a makeup remover beforehand. You'll notice the brassiness disappears by Days 4 and 5. 

Verdict

I love this stuff! The K-Palette Eyebrow Tint might be a tricky beast, but it's ridiculously useful once I got the hang of it. It cuts my brow makeup time in half since I don't need to spend so much time filling in the sparse areas; the first two to three days, I don't even need to add any brow makeup! That's pretty liberating considering I can't step out without eyebrows on.

If you have super oily skin, this is for you. If you sweat a lot because of commuting or working out, you'll love this. If you're just generally lazy, this was made for you!

I will continue using this and will probably purchase it when I run out.
