Over the past few years, the semi permanent tattoo technique used to create the illusion of fuller brows which is known as Microblading has taken the beauty industry by storm but an alternative brow treatment that has been making waves in the beauty industry for its ability to deliver fuller arches and is also effective for oily and sensitive skin is *Microshading*.
What is Microshading?
Microshading which is also known as Powder Brows is a brow treatment where a brow technician uses a very fine pen to make individual tattoo marks that look like tiny dots onto the brows giving it a somewhat airbrushed look.
What Is The Difference Between Microblading & Microshading?
Microblading involves creating short hair like strokes on the brow in order to mimic the look of brow hair but Microshading on the other hand gives the brow a more solid and bold appearance.
Benefits Of Microshading?
– Microshading lasts for about one to three years with proper care and maintenance making it last longer than Microblading.
– It is more ideal for sensitive and oily skin types. Since Microblading deals with dragging a blade across the brows, the dragging motion is more painful for people with sensitive skin.
– It gives the appearance of fuller brows.
– Microshading also helps with eyebrow symmetry.
Side Effects Of Microshading
– The color used in Microshading may degrade over time and can appear blue or pink.
– Since the treatment involves the use of a needle, there is always a risk of infection.
– Skin may scab post – procedure as it heals but once scabbing diminishes, the brows come out with a bold result.
What To Do After Getting Your Microshading Done?
– Avoid getting your skin wet for at least 24 hours after a Microshading procedure.
– Avoid chemical peels as well as itching or picking at them.
– Also avoid any activity that could cause excessive sweating or moisture.
Finally, both Microshading and Microblading are effective at faking a fuller brows but since both are semi permanent tattoos, you have to look for a skilled technician to understand which process will work best for you.
