Review (5/5): Essential for realistic looking eyebrows
This dealer offers 2 pens for the price of 1 - so best deal on Amazon, for what I find to be a necessary tool to have realistic looking eyebrows.
I have to draw about 2/3rd of my eyebrows since I have scarce hair. I had microblading done but the costs, time to actually get it done (an afternoon) and recovery time (1 week+) just didn't justify for the fact that it lasted only 8 months for me. So now I am drawing in my eyebrows again but with this tattoo pen - I get the same 3-D effect of microblading without the issues.
For me, this pen is really the better one. The larger barrel (though it may seem cumbersome to use) allows for more ink so the pens last a month (unlike the other slimmer pens which last 2-3 uses). The trick to making it look good is :
- 1. draw in "hair" by keeping pen perpendicular to your face and using short strokes in angles that mimics eyebrow hair.
- 2. run a spooly / eyebrow brush through the lines to thin it out a little if it looks to thick.
- 3. draw with a hard eyebrow pencil to fill in the color and to also take the sheen off of the ink.
This is my new make up routine now and I am completely happy with it since it looks like I have real thick eyebrows.
