DIY: How to Tint Your Eyebrows at Home!

Brows looking a bit worse for wear during lockdown? Turns out brow tinting is totally doable at home! Let our Education Manager Anh walk you through a step-by-step brow tinting tutorial using our best-selling  Refectocil brow tints!

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

For maximum at-home convenience, we've put together two complete DIY eyebrow tinting kits to get you started! One kit contains liquid developer and the other contains a cream developer. We suggest opting for a cream developer if you are brand new to tinting, as it offers easy mixing and creates a thicker consistency for application. 

• Lash & Brow Tinting Kit - Refectocil Tints (in kit)
• Refectocil Oxidant 3% 10 Vol Developer Cream or Liquid (in kit)
• Refectocil Application stick (can use an angled brush) (in kit)
• Cotton Tips
• Cotton Pads

STEP-BY-STEP

Please note: Do an allergy test (patch test) before the first application, as well as after long periods without tinting.

Step 1 - Preparation

• Clean the brow area using an oil-free make-up remover
• Brush and shape the brow using a brow pencil

Step 2 - Mix & Apply

• Mix 2cm of your Refectocil eyebrow tint colour.

In the IGTV Anh created Deep Dark Brown = mix 1/4 Black 1 + 3/4 Brown 3

• Add 10 drops of Refectocil Oxidant 3% 10 Vol Developer Liquid or 15-20 drops of Refectocil Oxidant 3% 10 Vol Developer Cream and mix into a creamy paste.

Step 3 - Application

• Apply the tint to the lower arch and brush upwards then outwards toward the tail of the brow. Leave on for 5-10 minutes.

Note: work in sections at a time; starting from tail to middle section then blend into the inner section. Use a clean cotton tip to clean and shape the brows immediately to avoid staining of the skin outside of the shape.

Step 4 - Removal

• Remove tint using cotton pads saturated in water.
