Eyebrow Tinting at Home: Step-by-Step

1. 1

   Gather Supplies & Clean Brows

   5 min

   Get your tint kit, cotton swabs, Vaseline, and thoroughly clean your eyebrows to remove any makeup or oils.

2. 2

   Perform a Patch Test

   2 days

   Apply a tiny amount of mixed tint behind your ear or on your inner arm 48 hours before to check for allergic reactions.

3. 3

   Protect Your Skin

   2 min

   Apply a thin layer of Vaseline or a barrier cream around your eyebrows, avoiding the brow hairs themselves, to prevent skin staining.

4. 4

   Mix the Tint

   1 min

   Follow your tint kit's instructions carefully to mix the dye and developer in the correct proportions until smooth.

5. 5

   Apply the Tint

   5 min

   Using the applicator or a clean spoolie, carefully apply the tint to your brow hairs, ensuring even coverage from root to tip.

6. 6

   Let it Develop

   5-10 min

   Set a timer and allow the tint to develop for the time recommended in your kit's instructions, usually 5-10 minutes.

7. 7

   Remove the Tint

   2 min

   Gently wipe away the tint with a damp cotton pad, starting from the inner brow and moving outwards, until all residue is gone.
