Who tints their eyebrows?

[Tinks15]

Wondering whether to start tinting my own eyebrows rather than paying for someone to do them?

Firstly, is it fairly easy to do without staining your skin (the lady I use always makes them look so good) & secondly which is the best product to use?

I use the box dye from poundland, surprised how good it looks if I'm honest

@Inthesameboatatmo
What is the dye called from Poundland please

@Ilovesausages

I use just for men beard dye and it’s awesome!

Same! It's been an absolute revelation. I will never pay to have them tinted again.

I don't even need to use Vaseline as a barrier. Any excess just wipes off the skin.

It's called pro colour plus, I have very dark hair naturally so I use the darkest brown shade . I colour my hair with it as well now it does the job so I tint my brows with what's left over

Yep, easy. I mix it in a plastic milk bottle top and apply it with a angled eyebrow powder brush. As it stains the skin a bit so needs to be applied accurately.

Then I neaten up the shape/ remove excess with a cotton bud

Thanks everyone really helpful as always!

Can I ask is there anything else you can apply the dye with if you haven’t got an old mascara wand?

I've done it a couple of times and found it very easy.

Do you all have brow shaping off to a 'T'- plucking etc? When I have my (very fair) brows hennaed, she tidies them up with threading at the same time.

I just use a cotton bud. Though you can buy mascara wands on amazon etc pretty cheaply.

I've used an interdental brush before too!

I use one of the children's old paintbrushes!

I use eyelure as well. Absolutely love it. I don’t bother with Vaseline. It comes with a little spoolie brush to apply it with, cost about £6 and will last a good six months.

I get mine threaded for a fiver and slap on some tint at home. Takes moments and works a treat.

DD did mine yesterday for the first time with Just for Men. She's done her own for a couple of years. I looked like Groucho Marx while it developed for 5 minutes but I'm over the moon with the result.

@ Ilovesausages i use the beard dye too, just mix a bit at a time and it lasts ages. Apply with an old mascara wand laugh at my comedy eyebrows as it darkens / develops then was off in the shower.

The eyelure lash dye comes with a mini wand

I started tinting my own during lockdown and will carry on as it's so easy

Another vote for eyelure. I use a kohl pencil to outline my brows as close as possible, then using a cotton bud with a bit of Vaseline and apply just out of the line.
As pp have said, don't leave it on for too long though! It's surprising how quick it works. Two minutes at most for me.
My brows looked practically none existent before I started using this.
Good stuff.

oh this is what I needed to know!

Do these brands cover greys? I have generally dark brown brows, but some absolutely snowy white brows poke through (slightly bristle-like texture), and sometimes the ends of others are going grey.

Sorry to go off subject slightly, but does anyone henna their own brows or lashes? If so what do you use?

@Thimbleberries I use eyelure and it covers the greys that are starting up in my brows.

I bought some stuff fro Sally (the beauty wholesale place) Refectocil (?) and did it yesterday, I’m old 😊😊😊. And my brows are pretty non existent but I managed to do it quite well. Be careful not to get it on the window ledge though (I was trying to find the best light for what I was doing!) cause it dyes very quickly 🤦‍♀️

Actually, ones a bit darker but, they’re still better than before!
