Previously, women's eyebrows could boast of the most natural look after fashionable microblading, but the powder spraying technique, using a similar pigment application method, has stepped even further — after the hands of a talented master, not everyone around will be able to distinguish powdery eyebrows from beautifully designed real ones. And the need to constantly tint them in the morning will disappear.
If you don’t like well-defined (as if under a stencil) eyebrows of a rich dark color, but on the contrary, you prefer a neat, maximally natural look, as if the eyebrows are just slightly tinted with shadows, then the powder tattoo technique will be a real find for you.
Like microblading, powdering is performed using a method of shallow skin micropigmentation. However, if in microblading the technique imitates the finest hairs, since tiny cuts-lines are made, then in powder spraying the skin is covered with many dots, which, after healing, will imitate a weightless coating with colored powder or shadows.

It was the smooth transitions and careful shading of the "powder" pigment that gave the name to the trend. One of the leaders in powder coating technology is the LBar beauty studio in the center of Kyiv. You can read more about the service and sign up for the procedure at link.
Powder Eyebrow Benefits:
- Due to the shallow penetration of the tattoo tool, the healing process of the eyebrows is much faster than with a classic tattoo.
- The color of the eyebrows when using the powder technique practically does not change and does not brighten after healing, that is, the color that was applied to the client initially will just remain on her face — tint loss will be minimal.
- Due to the lack of clear contours, powder coating looks the most natural of all types of eyebrow tattooing.
- Powder brows appear thicker and more voluminous, ideal for sparse brows.
- It is easy for the master to vary the intensity of the shade on the eyebrows during the procedure for applying the pigment — from translucent to saturated color.
Like microblading, powder brows look very natural, but still these techniques give very different results, so before choosing, decide what kind of effect you want to achieve — sharply traced hairs or a weightless imitation of staining with shadows.
Powder Eyebrow Disadvantages:
- The penetration of the pigment only into the shallow layers of the skin makes the powder effect short-lived. Just like with microblading, powder brows last half as long as regular tattoos.
- Powder technique for the master is more troublesome and scrupulous in execution than the classical one, therefore, such a procedure is more expensive than the usual variety of permanent makeup.
- If you are a fan of clear contours, powder coating will not suit you.
- It is believed that powdery eyebrows are more suitable for fair-skinned and fair-haired girls. Although the master can vary the intensity of the color, nevertheless, on a swarthy face or against the background of black hair, "watercolor" eyebrows just disappear. Brunettes and mulattos are still better with expressive, dark and well-defined eyebrows.

To determine exactly if the powder coating technique is right for you, pay attention to who this method is intended for.
What Problems Can Powder Brows Solve
- If the eyebrows are naturally very light, but a dark tattoo will look too clumsy.
- The very shape of the eyebrows is well formed, but too lazy to tint them every day.
- Eyebrows have sparse hairs or bald spots.
Not every tattoo artist will be able to beautifully perform powdered brows, so if you have already decided on this type of tattoo, then carefully approach the choice of a master who must certainly have experience and a portfolio of works with powdered eyebrows.
