Which pigment line should you chose and why?

When picking a pigment line, you want to choose between Organic and Inorganic pigments.

Organic pigments tend to be less forgiving in the skin due to having a small particle size allowing pigmentation to be easily implant into the skin. You will not need to over saturate. Stick to 1-3 passes and use numbing gel in between each pass to let the skin oxidize the ink and show you true color and density. Organic inks for the most part can act as a permanent ink and should be used with a "less is more" approach. Organic inks tend to heal more grey/ashy.

• Permablend inks
• Brighter in tone

Inorganic pigments tend to fade quicker due to having a larger particle size. You may find that the inks appear to be "slimey" and is not as permanent as organic pigments. There is a little more forgiveness with these types of inks and may be more suitable for beginners but retention will not last as well as organic inks.

• LI pigments
• Muted/earthy in tone
• contains a high level of Nickel
• Carbon black
• Titanium Dioxide white - lasts the longest in the skin, leaving behind that grey/ash tone

It is smart to remember that these particles in organic and inorganic inks are attracted to each other and if you place your microblading too close together, the ink will begin to mesh together over time.

Brow Daddy's Gold Collection

This is my personal favorite pigment line at the moment.

• Honey Magic will be your modifier. You want to use 3 drops into your cool pigments as this line of cool tones heal very cool. You do not need to use honey magic if you are using warm tones like Brouge, Shokolade and Bronzite.
• Tokyo Black - I like to use this as my darkener. I do not like to use this pigment on its own unless I am modifying this with honey magic and my client is asking for a very dark brow. I like to use 1-3 drops of Tokyo Black to darken my pigment mix.

It takes about 1-2 years to be able to understand a pigment line. You will need to see how each pigment line retains over time and chart down what you notice and see short term and long term (immediate touchup verses annual touchup). In my opinion, it is best to stick to a pigment line instead of jumping around so you can see how this pigment heals within the skin of your clients.
