About this Treatment

Eyebrow tinting and eyelash tinting is the perfect way to look made up with minimum effort. Your eyebrows and eyelashes will look defined without the slightest bit of makeup, and you can choose a colour which compliments or contrasts with your hair and eye colour, and skin tone.

If you’re not lucky enough to have naturally bushy brows and luscious lashes then tinting is a quick and easy way to make your eyes look larger and lashes look longer. Blondes, red heads and those with a fair complexion particularly benefit from the added definition.

Even dark hair gets lightened by the sun, with the ends and lower lashes often barely noticeable. Tinting is great if you lead an active lifestyle, whether that’s playing sport or just wanting to look good in any sort of weather. Tinting is also great for anyone considering having semi-permanent makeup in the future as this short-term treatment will allow you to see the benefits of not having to use mascara, or to pencil in your eyebrows every day.

This treatment involves the application of a semi permanent dye containing a formula of phenylenediamine (PPD) and hydrogen peroxide. It’s the PPD that gives the tint its tone, and the hydrogen peroxide (a weak acid) that provides oxygen to activate the solution. The hydrogen peroxide used is a much lower concentration than the type that’s used in hair dyes, making it much safer to use in this sensitive area.
