Everyone keeps raving about the product that is out to replace microblading–the Maybelline Tattoo Studio Brow Tint Pen. I went out to buy one to see what the hype is all about, but I couldn’t find it anywhere! It was totally sold out. I don’t know about you, but that makes me want to try it even more (though in my case, it’s to prove that there is no such thing as a microblading replacement).
The Maybelline Tattoo Studio Brow Tint Pen is a cosmetic product that creates hair like strokes with a multi-prong tip. It mimics microblading by supposedly creating the same types of strokes that the actual procedure would. Notice in the image how the pen creates four strokes at a time. With proper technique and pressure, just as we need in microblading, you would get the appearance of fuller eyebrows. Or so they say.
It comes in four shades–blonde, soft brown, medium brown, and deep brown. This is extremely limited compared to the amount of pigment shades you can choose from when getting microbladed, but it’s a good range for the majority of people. According to Maybelline, it lasts up to 24 hours and is both smudge and transfer proof. It’s important to note that because this product creates hair-like strokes, it is not meant for those seeking ombre or powder brows (like Kim Kardashian’s). This product is meant to create a natural looking brow, a style we absolutely love here at MicroBladers.
