RefectoCil Eyelash and Eyebrow tints Why is it so important to use a non oily eye makeup remover before eyelash and brow tinting? To reach the best possible tinting results, lashes and eyebrows have to be clean, non-oily and dry. Therefore please use a non-oily eye makeup remover even if you are not wearing any eye makeup. Afterwards please dry the skin thoroughly. Before every eyebrow and lash tinting treatment the hair should be cleaned with a non-oily eye makeup remover. This is really important because the hair has to be totally oil free and completely clear of any makeup residue. Only then can the best possible and long-lasting tinting result be achieved. How can I protect my skin from staining? When tinting the eyebrows it is helpful to apply the moisturizing RefectoCil Skin Protection Cream around the eye area to protect against staining. Avoid direct contact of the cream on the brows and lashes as these will then not be tinted. What is the correct application time for tinting eyelashes? The correct application time for lashes is 10 minutes. What is the correct application time for tinting eyebrows? Generally one can say that the color effect is increased with the prolongation of the application time. Depending on the initial color, the structure of the hair and the desired color intensity the application time can be varied. For light colored eyebrows we recommend a shorter application time of approx. 3-4 min; especially suitable are the shades light brown and brown. For dark eyebrows we recommend an application time of between 5 and 10 min; especially suitable are the shades brown and black. If you have little experience in tinting, remove the color paste after 1-2 minutes from one eyebrow and check the result. In case the result is not intense enough, apply the paste once more and leave for a longer duration. Is tinting of the eyebrows and lashes also suitable for men? Like the traditional hair coloration also tinting of eyebrows and lashes has been predominantly a female thing. But with the increase in men cultivating their body and hair, a lot of men are discovering the incomparable advantages of eyebrow and lash tinting: simply look more attractive with long and full lashes and eyebrows. And for up to 6 weeks! With the eyebrow and lash tint men can finally also help out a little, to give their eyes that certain something. In addition to that
the following is important for men: unlike mascara, a tinted eyelash always looks natural. A real eyeopener for your male customers. Is it normal that the colour paste coming out from the tube looks different from time to time? Yes! The colour of the tinting paste itself has nothing to do with the actual tinting result. A customer had a reaction (redness) that appeared after the tinting process. The reasons for an allergic reaction: medication, development of a specific sensitivity without apparent reason, etc.) are of course possible and may have caused the reaction. Another cause might have been a too thin application mixture. In this case the mixture may soak through the closed eyelids and cause burning or irritation of the eye. In order to avoid this, it is better to use Oxidant Creme instead of Oxidant Liquid. The mixing ratio should be 1:1, in doubt less Oxidant should be used. It is of course important that the customer keeps her eyelids tightly closed during the whole tinting process. Basically an allergic reaction or an irritation of the eye is a medical issue and we strongly recommend the concerned customer to see a dermatologist or an eye specialist and to follow his advices. We also recommend to have made an allergy test (patch test) prior to the first tinting, prior to changing to another tinting product (different composition) and after longer tinting breaks. The test should be made by a dermatologist in order to get reliable results. To know on RefectoCil Sensitive: Color Gel containing walnut: We have only used the chemically isolated coloring part (deconstructed) of the plant, called JUGLONE. This coloring agent is widely used for food and also cosmetics and its use does not call for a contains nuts label - The risk of a reaction is rather low but do not let caution slip. As it is never clear to which part of the plant the allergy patient is reacting, a proper patch test must be done to check reactions in a controlled environment. Competition: Although the brand Intensive in the USA claims to be natural, it is not true. They are a coal tar dye. RefectoCil Sensitive are the only plant based one. Silver nitrate is a natural ingredient

BeautyLash Eyelash Growth Booster How often should one apply the BeautyLash Eyelash Growth Booster? 1x daily. The effectiveness of the product is based on the continuous application over several weeks. A permanent application is recommended if you want to preserve your new lash length.
