Apraise eyebrow and eyelash tint Black 1 with hyaluronic acid, black, 20 ml

Apraise Black 1 eyebrow and eyelash tint gives dark hairs a pure, rich black colour. It suits dark brown or black hairs when the aim is defined brows and clearly accentuated lashes. This professional shade delivers an intense black finish and shine.

Hyaluronic acid conditions the hairs during tinting. The vegan tint belongs to a six-shade intermixable system that allows the technician to tailor the colour to each client. A 20 ml tube provides up to 40 applications, with colour lasting up to eight weeks depending on individual hair characteristics and the tinting result.

Black 1 is designed for professional brow and lash tinting with Apraise Liquid or Cream Developer. When treating both areas, the same shade or a lighter one can be chosen for the brows. Development time is 5–10 minutes; longer exposure within this interval increases colour intensity.

Uses and key ingredients

When a distinctly black brow or lash colour is wanted, this shade helps define the contours. It is intended for professionals working with pure black tint and matching brow colour to the client's hairs.

Hyaluronic acid helps condition hairs during tinting and is included as sodium hyaluronate (Sodium Hyaluronate). The formula also contains hydrolysed soy protein (Hydrolyzed Soy Protein) and the vitamin E derivative Tocopheryl Acetate. The vegan range includes six intermixable shades for bespoke colours.

How to use

Preparation and shade selection

Perform a sensitivity test 48 hours before every tinting treatment, following the instructions on the tint packaging. Wear suitable gloves and use non-metallic utensils.

Choose Black 1 for pure black colour on dark brown or black hairs. If black lashes but softer brows are desired, use a lighter Apraise shade on the brows.

Preparing the mixture

Mix approximately 2 cm of tint with 10 drops of Apraise Liquid Developer until smooth and uniform. For a smaller amount, add 5 drops of liquid developer to 1 cm of tint. Apraise Cream Developer can also be used according to its instructions. Apply the tint after mixing with developer, rather than directly from the tube.

Tinting brows

Remove make-up and product residue with Apraise micellar water so the hairs are clean and oil-free. Use a cotton bud to apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly to the skin around the brows. Do not coat the hairs to be tinted, as petroleum jelly prevents the colour from taking. Apply the mixture with a tinting brush, following the desired brow shape and keeping it off skin outside the treatment area.

Tinting lashes

Cleanse the lashes and eye area. Protect the surrounding skin with petroleum jelly, apply a thin layer to the back of the protective papers and place them beneath the lower lashes. Ask the client to gently close their eyes. Brush the prepared mixture onto the lashes in downward strokes. When tinting both areas in one treatment, apply to the lashes first and then the brows.

Development time and removal

Leave to develop for 5–10 minutes according to hair type and desired intensity. A longer development time within this interval produces a more intense result. Gently wipe the brows with damp cotton wool until all tint residue is removed. Remove the protective papers with a downward sweep of a damp cotton pad. Clean the lashes using the same motion while the client's eyes remain closed. Once all residue is removed, ask the client to open their eyes slowly and initially avoid bright or direct light.

For professional use only. Colourants can cause severe allergic reactions. Wear suitable gloves. Rinse eyes immediately if the product comes into contact with them. Not intended for persons under 16. Do not tint if the client has previously reacted to hair or eyelash colour or a temporary black henna tattoo, or has a facial rash or a sensitive, irritated or damaged scalp.

The product story

Brow and lash tinting helps define facial features, and choosing the right shade is an essential part of the treatment. Apraise's vegan tint range is designed for professionals who adapt the colour to each client's hairs and desired result. The six intermixable shades can be used individually or combined in a bespoke blend within one tinting system.

Black 1 is the pure black shade in the palette for dark brown or black hairs. It defines brows and lashes with rich colour and shine. For a treatment combining black lashes with softer brows, a lighter shade can be selected for the brows.

The treatment also addresses conditioning: hyaluronic acid in the formula cares for the hairs while the tint develops. One 20 ml tube provides up to 40 applications, with colour lasting up to eight weeks. Mix the selected shade with Apraise developer to create a smooth paste before application. Shade selection, mixing and precise application form connected steps that allow the technician to create a brow and lash colour tailored to the client.
