When should a patch test be done?
Patch tests with Apraise products should be taken 48 hours before each tinting appointment.
Can you use Apraise® products on pregnant clients?
We do not recommend applying tints on pregnant clients during the first trimester of pregnancy.
How long will the Apraise® tint last when applied?
Apraise eyelash and eyebrow tints last up to 8 weeks, depending on how the application reacts to the hair. The treatment however, can be repeated on a regular basis.
Is the colour that comes out of the tinting tube the end colour?
No. The tint needs to be mixed with the developer to achieve the correct colour.
How can I protect clients’ skin from staining?
When applying Apraise to either eyelash or eyebrow, always apply our Petroleum Jelly around the brow/eye area to protect against staining. Avoid direct contact with the eyebrow and eyelashes as these will then not be tinted. If staining does occur, use our Stain Remover.
Do clients need to remove make-up?
Yes, make-up must be removed before applying any Apraise tint product as eyelashes and eyebrows must be completely clean. Use Apraise Micellar Water to cleanse the eye area, removing all make-up and product build-up, leaving no residue.
What is the correct developing time for tinting eyelashes and eyebrows?
Developing times are between 5-10 minutes; the longer you leave the application the more intense the colour will be.
My client has overplucked their brows, leaving them sparse and thin. What can you recommend?
With active ingredients that stimulate the hair follicle & nourish weak/sparse brows and lashes, Apraise Power Serum will create fuller and stronger lashes and brows in just 15 days!
My client has sensitive skin and suffers from irritation and puffiness around the eyes. What can you recommend?
Our Apraise Eye Serum helps provide a burst of hydration to the delicate eye area, and our Apraise Eye Cream increases circulation to reduce under eye puffiness.
What can I use to soothe the eye area pre and post waxing treatment?
Our Apraise Aloe Vera Gel is a must-have for soothing and cooling the eye area post-treatment, leaving the skin soft and moisturised.
The Apraise Lash & Brow PPD FREE Tint range of products do not contain PPD (p-phenylenediamine).
They do contain a different but similar hair colouring ingredient called Toluene-2-5 diamine.
Confusion may arise because the warning text on the Apraise lash and brow tint indicates “Contains phenylenediamines (toluenediamines)”.
Although it looks similar, this material, ‘phenylenediamines (toluenediamines)’ is not the same as ‘p-phenylenediamine’ (PPD).
It is important that a 48-hour patch test is always carried out before every application of any Apraise tint, as an allergic reaction can still occur with these formulations.
People with a confirmed allergy to PPD should avoid using oxidation type hair colouring products, including Apraise Eyelash Tint.
