Our favorites to clean the brows

Why is it important to clean the brows?

First, let's start with why is cleaning your client's brows a crucial step before diving into any brow treatment:

Clean canvas

Clean brows are like a blank canvas, ready for your artistic touch. By beginning with a clean slate, you set the stage for flawless results with every brow treatment, whether it's Brow Henna, Hybrid Dye, or Brow Lamination.

Optimal results

When it comes to Brow Henna, Liquid Dye, and Brow Lamination, cleanliness is the name of the game. Clean brows provide the perfect canvas for your brow dyes and solutions to do their thing, resulting in deeper color penetration and longer-lasting lifts. It's proven that Brow Henna and Liquid Dye stain the skin and hair way better once the brows are clean from all oils and makeup residue! And we’re all aiming for the longest skin stain possible, aren’t we?

How to choose the right Brow Cleanser?

Choosing the right Brow Cleanser is super important to ensure you're giving the brows and the surrounding area the care they deserve before your treatments. When you're on the hunt for the perfect Brow Cleanser, there are a few things you'll want to keep in mind. First, take a peek at the ingredients list. We recommend opting for natural ingredients in Brow Cleansers since they are more gentle to sensitive skin. And you might know very well that a lot of clients can be sensitive to a lot of products. You'll want to go for Brow Cleansers with ingredients like matcha and mint that'll leave your clients feeling extra pampered.

Then, think about what formula works the best for you and your client – whether it's a foam, gel, or liquid, each has its own benefits. Oh, and don't forget about the scent! A fresh aroma can totally change and improve the whole experience for your clients – trust us, they'll thank you for it! And if you're multitasking and need a Cleanser that can handle both brows and lashes, go for it! Just make sure it's gentle enough for clients with sensitive skin to avoid any redness or discomfort. Cleansers containing alcohol can be harsh on the eyes. After all, you have to make sure your clients leave feeling fabulous!

PRO TIP #2: Why use an SPF after exfoliation?
Exfoliating can leave the skin more sensitive to the sun's rays. That's why it's so important to shield freshly exfoliated brows with our Nourishing Aftercare Balm, complete with SPF 30 protection. Whether it's 48 hours after Brow Lamination or 24 hours after Brow Henna, this Nourishing Aftercare Balm ensures that the eyebrows stay protected and nourished, giving you peace of mind and your clients' gorgeous brows that stand the test of time.

Pro Cleanser vs. Foam Cleanser: The difference

We already talked about two Brow Cleansers. But what sets them apart?

The Foam Cleanser is perfect for the lash and brow area and clients with more sensitive skin since it's free from alcohol. The foamy formula makes it perfect to thoroughly clean the hairs and skin below. It’s very soft for the skin—that's the sensation your clients will love! So every time you are about to laminate brows or lashes, the Foam Cleanser is your superhero. The same goes if you’re going to tint the brows of clients with sensitive skin.

Meanwhile, the Pro Cleanser comes in liquid form infused with Matcha and Mint, leaving your client's skin fully stripped of any oily residue and dirt, refreshed, and ready for their brow session. The alcohol in the Pro Cleanser will ensure a clean canvas for a long skin stain. The refreshing aroma is a hit with both clients and Brow Pros alike, making it a must-have for properly preparing the brow area and hair for a flawless Brow Henna or Liquid Dye treatment.
