microblading (and makeup

It’s been 5 months since I first had my eyebrows microbladed, and almost 3 months since I had them touched up. I feel pretty confident in saying they are healed up for the long haul.

filled in brows vs. microbladed brows (and better skincare!)

I shared my microblading experience here before I had them touched up. Now that they are all healed up and I’ve gotten used to them, I can tell you a few solid things about my overall experience with it.

  1. Give them time. If you are like me, you will hate them the first 1-3 days. You’ll probably google ‘how to get rid of microblading’ and you will feel like your face was swallowed by two wool-y worms. They will be swollen and dark and look SO unnatural to you. That was totally part of the process for me!
  2. Take care of them as you are instructed. I followed my directions to a “T” and felt like when it came to my touch-up, I really didn’t need much work done.
  3. Don’t be shocked if you still need to fill them in/touch them up daily. I do touch up the end tails of my brows each day. I had NO hair there naturally, so the tails are slightly lighter than the fronts because the front has natural brow hair. I use Senegence ShadowSense in Rustic Brown for my eyebrows and they match up perfectly!
just laying in bed on night 1, contemplating what i thought was the biggest mistake of my face’s life. seriously. i couldn’t sleep that night 🙂
they are super DARK and LARGE that first week!

I am SO pleased with how my brows turned out. Coming from a girl who had SUPER thin brows with NO shape, I love waking up in the mornings with some eyebrows! I feel like it makes my morning routine faster and I feel more confident with my bare face. I am so pleased with the makeup artist that did my microblading. She was so sweet, professional, and extremely talented. You can find her here.
