Ombre Powder Brows vs Microblading

Updated: Jul 9, 2023

Ombre Powder eyebrows is a semi-permanent tattoo technique that consists of shading the eyebrow with an ombré or gradient effect, with less intensity in the inner area of the eyebrow and greater strength of color in the tail of the eyebrow.


Unlike microblading, this technique does not consist of tracing hair through hair, but adds color and a powdery feel to the entire area.

In this way, powdered brows give the effect of a made-up eyebrow that lasts for approximately 9-12 months.

How is the powder browsing technique performed?


The powdered eyebrow technique is performed with an electric machine called a dermographer. This traces micro-dots of pigment onto the eyebrow, creating a shadow effect that is very different from the natural result of the microblade, for example.


Ideally, you should have at least one touch-up after a month. This will depend on your skin type, oily skin being more prone to touch-ups, age, lifestyle or your facial routine. After that, to keep the eyebrow makeup effect intact, you will need to touch up annually.


If you still have any questions I have a free consultation of 20 minutes, you'll have the opportunity to meet at my studio and I will answer all your questions. Below you will have a link to Book a Free Consultation.




Can microblading and powder brows be combined?


The combination of microblading and powder eyebrows is truly spectacular. We obtain a fuller and more defined eyebrow, hair by hair, with a natural result, while obtaining the effect of a made-up eyebrow. This synergy is called hybrid eyebrows, combo brows or microshading. The ideal is to draw the design of the eyebrow hair by hair on the head of the eyebrow and to make the shading when arriving at the tail of your eyebrows.





How should the eyebrows be cared for after the eyebrow powder technique?


After performing the eyebrow powder technique, it is recommended to care for the eyebrows as you would a tattoo. That is, the skin requires a lot of hydration and incorporation of healing actives for at least the first week.


In addition, you should apply broad-spectrum sunscreen to prevent the treated area from becoming irritated, red, or infected. Remember that in summer the ultraviolet radiation is more aggressive than at other times of the year.


But don't worry I will give you a guide with all the details, and also we will be always in touch if you have any questions.
