For the last seven or so years since being a brightly coloured-hair lady I've had to make some changes to my routine but getting tinted at a salon can add up. I don't mind paying more if I'm going for a brow wax and tint but I'm lucky enough that my brows actually grow quite slowly, meaning it can be months between waxes.
I also find that a salon tint fades after a few weeks and I'm left with a set very pale slugs on my face. Enter DIY at home tinting.
For the last year I've been using this ColorSport 30 Day Mascara / Brow Tint between salon visits and I've been so pleased with the results. This is a semi-permanent tint for your lashes and brows that is designed to last up to 30 days and it takes just a few moments to do at home.
ColorSport can be found in most drugstores, I tend to pick mine up in Semi-Chem (actually the only thing I think I still go into Semi-Chem for these days) as it's the cheapest place to find it circa £4.50.
Included in the little box you get
The instructions included in the box are super clear and even better - the products included are numbered so you can tell which step to do first. I always apply some Vaseline around my brows to protect the skin from being tinted too - 'cos I'm a messy git ^_^.
- Apply several coats of the eyelash/ brow colour solution (1) with a cotton bud and leave on for 1 min.
- Apply circa 1cm of the lash/brow colour gel (2) onto the little spooly and brush through the brows.
- Rinse off any excess gel immediately 'cos that shit will tint yer face.
- Remove all traces of product with a damped cotton pad after 2/3 mins depending on how dark you want the tint.
Voila! I've got eyebrows again.
Each pack says it contains enough for up to 12 applications and I can say I do get around 10/12 goes per purchase.
If you're naturally fair I'd certainly say give ColourSport a go. Have you tried it yet?
