About This Service
What Is Powder Brows?
Powder brows (also known as ombre brows or shaded brows) is a semi-permanent makeup technique that uses a PMU machine with a shading needle to deposit pigment in tiny dots, creating a soft, powdered makeup effect. Unlike microblading hair strokes, powder brows create a shaded, filled-in look similar to eyebrow makeup — from a soft natural gradient to a more defined, bold brow. The result is a beautiful, long-lasting brow that looks like perfectly applied brow powder.
At Brows & Lips, our powder brow artists are trained in the latest machine shading techniques. Every treatment starts with a personalized consultation where we map and design your ideal brow shape based on your facial anatomy, skin type, and desired intensity — from a soft natural flush to a more dramatic defined brow.

Avoid water, sweat, and steam on the brow area for the first week to allow proper pigment retention.

Prolonged sun can fade the pigment. Use SPF on your brows once fully healed.
Avoid applying makeup, creams, or skincare products directly on the brows during the healing period.

Frequently Asked Questions
Powder brows are a semi-permanent makeup technique that uses a PMU machine with a shading needle to create a soft, powdered, makeup-like effect on the eyebrows. Unlike hair-stroke techniques, powder brows produce a gentle gradient that mimics the look of perfectly applied brow powder, from a soft natural tint to a more defined bold brow.
Microblading creates individual hair strokes for a natural, textured look, ideal for sparse brows wanting hair-like realism. Powder brows create a soft shaded effect similar to brow makeup, perfect for those who want a filled-in, defined look. Many clients choose combination brows — hair strokes with a soft powder finish.
Yes! Powder brows are excellent for oily skin types because the shading technique deposits pigment more evenly into the skin without the blurring that can affect crisp hair strokes. The even distribution of pigment retains better on oily skin, making powder brows the ideal choice for clients with oily or combination skin.
Powder brows typically last 1-3 years depending on your skin type, lifestyle, sun exposure, and aftercare routine. Oily skin may experience faster fading. Annual touch-up sessions are recommended to maintain optimal colour intensity, shape, and definition, ensuring your brows always look fresh and polished.
The procedure takes approximately 2-2.5 hours including consultation, brow mapping and design, numbing time, and the powder brow treatment itself. A follow-up touch-up session is recommended 4-6 weeks after the initial procedure to perfect the shape and colour and address any uneven fading.
Most clients report minimal to no discomfort. A topical numbing cream is applied 30 minutes before the procedure to desensitize the brow area. During the treatment, additional numbing solution can be applied as needed to ensure your comfort throughout the entire powder brow process.
Avoid caffeine and alcohol 24 hours before your appointment. Do not wax, tint, or shape your brows for at least 3 days prior. Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin around the brow area. Avoid blood-thinning supplements like fish oil and vitamin E for 48 hours before treatment for optimal results.
