Eyelash Tinting
Eyelash Tinting
Eyelash tinting is a temporary method of colouring the lashes to make them look darker and longer. It can achieve the appearance of mascara without the time needed to apply it daily before leaving the house. It can be especially useful if you are going on holidays and don’t want to be applying mascara every morning.
The tints used to colour the lashes are usually natural vegetable-based dyes. The process should be painless and is relatively safe if you go to a trustworthy salon. Most people will go to the local salon, but you need to make sure they know what they are doing and have plenty of experience. A salon that has just started to offer eyelash tinting is not the best option, it probably means that one of the staff has just learnt how to do it. Ask people you know (that get their eyelashes tinted) what salon they use, because if they’re willing to go back there it must be good.
You can get your eyelashes tinted any colour you choose as long as the salon has your desired colour. Thought the choice is up to you, some of the more common colours are:
- Pure Black – Gives the sharpest look, similar to wearing normal mascara.
- Graphite – Almost black, provides a more natural look and is useful for covering greying lashes.
- Blue Black – The blue sheen enhances eyes and is a popular choice in many salons.
- Dark Brown – A good tone for people wanting a more natural but still dark look.
- Chestnut – Gives intense colour when over blond or light brown lashes
Eyelash tinting is a great way to have your eyes stand out without ever having to worry about your mascara running. Tinting shows the true length of your lashes and makes the most of it.
