Brow Airbrush

Brow airbrush mists a fine layer of colour over the whole brow area — the hairs and the skin between them. That's the key difference from tint, which only takes on hair: airbrush fills visible gaps, so sparse brows look genuinely fuller rather than just darker.

The colour is built in light layers, so you decide how soft or defined the finish is. The result looks like neatly powdered brows, and it lasts days rather than washing off each night.

• Consultation about shape and colour intensity
• Brows cleansed and prepared
• Airbrush colour misted over the brow in light, buildable layers
• Intensity checked with you as it builds
• Aftercare advice

Allow about 45 minutes. Your therapist agrees the shape and intensity with you, then builds the colour in fine layers, checking with you as it develops.

Because it's buildable, you can stop at a soft finish or continue to something more defined. Nothing is removed and no hair is coloured chemically.

Sparse or gappy brows, and anyone who fills their brows in with powder or pomade every day. If your brows have plenty of hair and just need to be darker, tint is simpler and cheaper. If you like the look and want it to last, ask about ombré brows.

Avoid getting the area wet for several hours, then use gentle cleansers around the brows. Scrubbing, exfoliating acids and oil cleansers lift the colour from the skin quickly.

Airbrush colour lasts several days to around two weeks depending on your skin and how you cleanse.

• Choose airbrush over tint if you have visible gaps to fill
• Ask for it built lightly first — it can always go deeper
• Avoid scrubs, acids and oil cleansers on the area
• Try this before committing to ombré brows if you're considering permanent makeup
• Add waxing if the shape also needs tidying
