Could I tint my own eyebrows. Is it a risk

[Ludlow2]

That's it really.

Which tint would you recommend so I don't look like I have catapillars stuck on my face
🤓

Its so easy

@JaneJeffer

I was responding to potato who said it was a "massive risk". That a number of other posters have a have responded to.

Zero risk if you follow the instructions (including a patch test).

No offence to any beauty therapists out there but you don’t need to be brain of Britain to apply some fairly low level dye to approx 2 inches of your face.

Watch a few YouTube vids, read the instructions and build the time up, you can always apply more / in stages.

Nothing wrong with getting them done at salon but with the products you can buy on high street / Amazon, you can do your own for 1/5th of the salon price.

Ok @Oblomov23 that wasn't clear

I use Dybrow, same stuff on brows and lashes. I use dark brown and leave it 12 minutes. Could not be easier. If you get a bit on your skin, fake tan remover gets it off.

I really want to try a DIY lash lift but have never been brave enough.

It's really easy. Eyelure off Amazon. You can't fuck it up. I wouldn't do eyelashes though...

Refectocil. Easy peasy. 10 mins tops. It's the brand my beauty therapist uses, I've used it for years. Read the instructions properly, and it's a doddle.

Very easy to do yourself .. if you end up with caterpillar brows due to stained skin just scrub it with Micellar water on a cotton pad and it comes off! I do this every time and they come out great lol

Eyelashes are fine, until you have to remove the tint.... but hey beauty is pain 😂

Henna dyes stain the skin, though I don't think anything would remain makeup-dark for weeks on end. My brows are reasonably sparse and look properly filled in for a week or so, fading over the next 1 or 2

I do mine every month. I just use a Just for Men mid brown beard dye and mix up a tiny amount ..I have been using the same box for about two years so it literally costs pennies each time. Never had a disaster.

I do mine with mens beard dye. Use medium brown, my hair is dark blonde.
Just mix a bit and dab it on either with a spooly or a cotton bud.
Cheap too because you get multiple applications from one box.
Youtube is your friend for this

Brows are super easy to do at home.

Colour spot dye brow is great. But just start at 2-3 minutes instead of the full 5.

Any recommendations for a PPD-free and a toluene-free eyebrow tint please?

Interested to see so many recommendations for Just For Men for eyebrows. Has anyone used it on lashes?

I am tempted to use just for men, but how do you know/judge how much to mix?

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I am dyspraxic and struggle with stuff like this.

I use Apraise professional eyelash and eyebrow tint (light brown 3.1) which I bought on eBay. It couldn’t be easier. I don’t bother with Vaseline and I have never dyed my skin. Not sure how you could do it “the wrong shape” - it’s meant to be hair dye, not a tattoo.

Absolutely do not put any hair dye on your lashes as it could get into your eyes. Only use specifically made eyelash dye !

It comes with instructions but I squeeze a cm from each tube snd mix.

Thank you @ClaraBourne. Good advice!

Thanks 😊

No risk at all been doing my own for years buy kit online last months!

Which one do you use ?

Eyebrow dyeing is such a cinch. I use Refectocil and my tube has just run out after about two years. I don't bother with Vaseline, I just mix it up (about a cm of dye and 5-10 drops of developer) splodge it on my brows with a cotton bud and leave for about 3 mins. Any staining on the skin (very little) is gone in about 24 hours.

This!
I use Just Men. Use equal dollops from each tube. You really do not need much.
