Ombre Powder Brow Aftercare

Aftercare is crucial, it is very important to follow these instructions for the full 10-day healing period to ensure proper healing and color retention. Results will vary for all individuals and I can not guarantee your results.

  • Use the cleanser provided and wash your brows morning and night every day for 7-10 days or until the flaking has stopped.  

  • Make sure you blot the completely dry with a clean towel after washing.  Allow NO WATER to collect or sit in the brow area.  

  • Apply the ointment/oil provided to your brows morning and night.  A very pea-sized amount is needed for each brow.

  • Oily skin types may be told to avoid ointment altogether and allow a dry healing process for 7-10 days. 

    What To Expect 

  • DO NOT expect your brow tattoos to heal perfectly after the first session. This can be a 2 step process. It takes time.  BE PATIENT during your 10-day healing process your brows will change and appear different from day to day. 

  • Immediately after your procedure brows will appear darker and more defined and this will last up to 2 weeks. Your brow tattoo can appear more solid.

  • Around days 4-5 you will experience flaking and your brows may look dry. DO NOT PICK your brows, let any dryness fall off naturally. If flakes get picked off prematurely it will result in patchy brows which can lead to scarring. 

  • Your brow tattoo will take up to 4 weeks to fully heal. Color will continue to change daily until all healing is complete at the 4-week mark. 

  • You may experience itchiness in the brows after 10 days for up to 2 months due to the healing process of the dermal layer. 

    What not to do; 

  • DO NOT expose your brows to the sun during the healing process.  UV Rays can alter the pigment of your tattoo.  Following the first 10 days, SPF is important for the longevity of your micropigmentation.

  • DO NOT sweat excessively for 10 days. Sweat contains salt and can infect and prematurely fade your brow tattoo. Salt in the sweat may also alter the color of your tattoo.  Moderate exercise is fine. 

  • DO NOT run direct water on your brow tattoo. This is especially important in the first few days, you do not want to wash out any pigment.

  • DO NOT use Vaseline on your tattoo.

  • DO NOT use any makeup, creams, or exfoliants on the brows for 10 days. 

  • DO NOT go into saunas, pools, and steam rooms.

  • DO NOT get massages facials or skin treatments during the healing process.

  • DO NOT go tanning

  • DO NOT use exfoliants, retinol acids, or AHAs on the brow area.  It will fade your tattoo prematurely.

  • DO NOT use laser light therapy on your brow tattoo. This can darken, lighten, and distort the pigment.


Long Term Care 

THERE IS NO GUARANTEE OF RESULTS as everyone’s result will vary due to skin type, lifestyle, and the initial 10-day care and long-term care of your brow tattoo.

  • Use at least SPF 50 to protect your brows, sun exposure will cause fading and can alter the color of your tattoo.

  • Do not use chemical exfoliants on the brows, this will cause the brows to fade faster.

  • Do not laser your brow area (IPL etc), some lasers may change the color of the ink.

  • As the tattoo fades the color will get fainter and less defined. 

  • Maintenance is required to maintain desired results. Touchups are done on average every 18 - 24 months to maintain your brow tattoo.
