Pro Team Artist Natalie Della-Verde
The owner of BadGal Brows in the UK shares 5 Pro Tips to get your microblading game on lock.
The Microblading Pro Set is a must-have for Microbladers.
Let’s start with the formulation. The set's rich and concentrated pigments are a dream to work with. With just one pass, the saturation achieved is incredible, helping to reduce the number of passes required per stroke. Ultimately, it saves you time as the artist and ensures your clients get clean, crisp, and healed hair strokes. The end result? Totally natural-looking results.
The Microblading Pro Set comes with a wide range of colours to choose from that can cater to all of our client's skin tones. The colour chart provided acts as a pretty helpful reference in selecting the perfect shades for each client, but most importantly gives you the power to get to know what’s in your pigment bottle. Informed decision-making is really key for giving your client the BEST you can. But here's where the magic happens: the first LUXE yellow pigment, Glow Up, is a true game-changer. It’s EU-compliant and is a neutral to warm colour that can lighten any pigment in the set that doesn't contain carbon black. I like using it to add a sunshine-like warmth to my PMU treatments.

Microblading Pro Set: Special Features
Something I really liked is the air-tight pump bottles included in the set are an incredible new feature for Perma Blend. They not only help to preserve the freshness of the pigments but also make the application process more convenient and mess-free.
The colour chart offers a quick visual reference showing you the comprehensive range of colours. It then delves deeper, giving you the exact CI Codes. CI codes are standardized colour identification codes for each individual pigment powder. These codes make up the final colours, which are then used to create the unique pigment each bottle contains.
By referring to the pigment CI codes, artists can gain a deeper understanding of the colour characteristics, such as warmth or coolness, brightness, and saturation. This knowledge, along with understanding skin characteristics and skin undertones, gives you the power to create informed colour selections for your clients that complement the client's skin tone for optimal healed results.
I personally modify all the colours in the range, and with the inclusion of Clay All Day & Glow Up, this set has you covered!
5 Artist Pro Tips
1. Combination Brows
If you want to do a combination brow, add a PB Shading Solution to thin the consistency of the pigment, and you are good to go! I make up two pigment pots prior to starting. One with my colour and one 50/50 with colour and Shading Solution.
2. Modify Your Organic Pigments
They may seem too warm at the time, even to the client, but it reduces the ashy healed results and ensures that a year down the line, they won’t be ashy!
3. Pigment Masking
When pigment masking, stretch the skin in different directions and rub into the strokes. Allow your pigment mask to fully dry, then rehydrate before wiping for maximum saturation.
4. Negative Space
Keep negative space between your strokes to allow for the strokes to expand in the skin when healed. Less is more! You can always add more at the touch-up.

5. Control Your Strokes
When doing strokes, be intentional, controlled, slow, and steady. Have a good tight stretch which will help you achieve the one-pass stroke.
After
Overall, the Microblading Pro Set is an exceptional product. The LUXE Glow Up shade as a game-changer. The rich, thick consistency pigments, the versatile colour range, the colour chart with CI Codes & the air-tight pump bottles, this set is a true PMU Artist must-have. This set is guaranteed to elevate your work and ensure stunning results.
