What Should You Choose Microblading or Powder Fill Brows

Unruly eyebrows are something that nearly every woman has experienced. Today options are endless in making your brows gorgeous - microblading and powder fill brows are just a few of the ones that are super worth having.

However, in the semi-permanent and permanent makeup industry, these two procedures are often confused. Here's a breakdown of the differences between microblading and powder brows to clear up the confusion and help one decide which to go.

Differentiating Microblading and Powder-Effect

First, let's talk about the most obvious - the results. After a microblading Chicago procedure, one will see natural-looking eyebrows with hair-like strokes. On the other hand, the Powder Effect or ombré brows recreate the look of immaculate, freshly applied makeup with pin-dot pigment application.


Secondly, when it comes to the methodology, technicians usually manually apply hair strokes in microblading. In contrast, the Powder Effect procedure can be done both manually or with a machine tool that is thinner, gentler, and quieter than traditional tattoo needles.

Powder Effect requires three days of dry healing for the healing time compared to seven days for microblading. Faster recovery time is one of the numerous reasons why experts and clients alike adore the Powder-effects method! Experts recommend the Powder Effect to those with extremely sensitive and oily skin, mature skin, thick skin, or those with many natural eyebrow hairs who just want to fill in gaps or add definition to them. Powder Effect can also cover past microblading, permanent/semi-permanent makeup, or faded cosmetic tattooing.


After you've approved the design our technician has created for you she'll administer numbing cream, a topical anesthetic, to assure your comfort. It works—many of our clients doze off while we work on them! We only utilize the best items before and throughout each procedure since we only want the best for our clients.
