Let us show you how simple the whole process is from start to finish!

First things first: Safety

Before you start with applying tint on your eyebrows. We advise all our brow babes to start with doing a skin patch test. Although our henna powder is 88% natural, there is still a small chance that certain skin types have allergic reactions or some discomfort to brow tint. We strive to prevent any issues by performing an allergy test 48 hours before use, even if your client is already familiar with coloring products.

Henna treatment steps

Supercilium henna brows in 5 easy steps

  1. Always start with prepping the Brow Henna, so the henna can sit and develop. Mix 1 measuring spoon of the henna powder (25g) with about 15-20 drops of the Supercilium Color Developer until a smooth henna paste is achieved. Lighter colors tend to need more drops of Color Developer than darker colors. Wait 5 minutes before you start using it. The henna mustn’t be too runny!

  2. The cleaner the skin, the better the henna can penetrate the skin. Therefore clean the eyebrows with Supercilium Pro Cleanser to strip oils from the skin. An even better result is achieved when the eyebrows are exfoliated afterwards with the Supercilium Prep Peel Gel. Apply a pea sized amount and gently massage it onto the brows and the skin underneath. The client can also do this at home. You can remove the Prep Peel Gel again with the Pro Cleanser on a cotton pad. 
  3. Apply a layer of henna paste with a Medium Angled Brow Brush. Press or stamp the paint onto the eyebrow until all skin is covered. Work from the start of the brow until the tail. Make sure you create sharp lines. Correct small mistakes using a normal cotton swab or precision swab with the Supercilium Color Corrector. Also check our other eyebrow brushes. 
  4. Remove the product from the beginning of the eyebrow after 3-5 minutes for an ombre effect, with a damp – not too wet – cotton pad. If still too light, reapply the henna and leave it on for another 3-5 minutes.
  5. Finally remove the rest of the henna after 15-20 minutes. The longer the dye sits, the better it will penetrate the skin and the longer the effect will last.

Aftercare for henna brows

Don’t clean henna-dyed brows for at least 12 hours after treatment. Use as little as possible of cleansing products. Oil-based skincare products and scrubs also will cause the color to fade quicker.
