Be sure to follow @badgal.brows on Instagram for a special Instagram interactive live session where I will be talking about The New Microblading Pro Set, how to use the colour chart, how to use this set for different techniques, colour theory & more plus a live giveaway!

This is an excellent chance to gain further insights and knowledge on the Microblading Pro Set!

The Microblading Pro Set is a must-have for Microbladers.

The set's rich and concentrated pigments are a dream to work with. With just one pass, the saturation achieved is incredible, helping to reduce the number of passes required per stroke, saving you as the artist time & ensuring your clients get clean, crisp healed hair strokes for a natural-looking healed result.

The Microblading Pro Set comes with a wide range of colours to choose from that can cater to all of our client’s skin tones. The colour chart provided acts as a helpful reference in selecting the perfect shades for each client, but most importantly gives you the power to get to know what’s in your pigment bottle, helping you to make a truly informed decision for your clients!

A standout feature of this set is the first LUXE Yellow (GLOW UP!) - it’s truly a game changer. This neutral to warm colour will lighten the value of any of the colours in the set that doesn’t contain any carbon black.  This Yellow has been greatly anticipated by all of the LUXE lovers as it is EU REACH compliant yellow corrector & modifier. You can use this to mix with your fave LUXE pigments too! Watch my live to find out how I’ve use this for other PMU Treatments!

GLOW UP – Think sunshine, use to modify! Lighten any of the pigments with this neutral to warm must have.

CLAY ALL DAY - Use alone for red head beauties or to warm up (modify) any of the pigments in the set. Think warm teracotta! Use to add warmth and alone for red heads.

TAUPE NOTCH – This one is for the blonde bombshells, think neutral taupe. Modify with Clay All Day!

HAVE YOUR CAKE – Medium brown neutral brown, think milk chocolate. Flat brown for mousy to light brunettes. Use Clay All Day for warmth or Glow Up to lighten.

SPILL THE TEA – Beautiful warm medium to dark brown, think dark chocolate. Use Clay All Day for warmth or Glow Up to lighten.

ALL NIGHT LONG – A deep dark wonder, think cool black. I use this to darken pigments in the set. 

Additionally, the air-tight pump bottles included in the set are an incredible new feature for Perma Blend. They not only help to preserve the freshness of the pigments but also make the application process more convenient and mess-free.

The colour chart is a great quick visual reference showing you the comprehensive range of colours. It then delves deeper, giving you the exact CI Codes. CI codes are standardised colour identification codes that each individual pigment powder that make up the final colours in the pigment bottle contains.

By referring to the pigment CI codes, artists can gain a deeper understanding of the colour characteristics, such as warmth or coolness, brightness, and saturation. This knowledge along with understanding skin characteristics & skin undertones gives you the power to create informed colour selections for you clients that complement the client's skin tone for optimal healed results.

I personally modify all the colours in the range and with the inclusion of CLAY ALL DAY & GLOW UP this set has you covered!



5 ARTIST PRO TIPS

1: If you want to do a combination Brow, add a Perma Blend Shading Solution to thin the consistency of the pigment and you are good to go! I make up 2 pigment pots prior to starting. One with my colour & one 50/50 with colour & Shading Solution

2: When pigment masking, stretch the skin in different directions & rub into the strokes, allow your pigment mask to fully dry, then rehydrate before wiping for maximum saturation.

3: Modify your Organic Pigments, they may seem too warm at the time, even to the client, but it reduces the ashy healed results and ensures that a year down the line they won’t be ashy!

4: Keep negative space between your stroke to allow for the strokes to expand in the skin when healed. Less is more! You can always add more at the touch up.

5: When doing stokes be intentional, controlled, slow & steady, have a good tight stretch which will help you achieve the one pass stroke.

Overall, the Microblading Pro Set is an exceptional product. With the Luxe Yellow shade as a game-changer, the rich thick consistency pigments, the versatile colour range, Colour chart with CI Codes & the air-tight pump bottles, this set is a true PMU Artist must have. This set is guaranteed to elevate your work and ensure stunning results.
