Eyebrow Lamination Expert System «BROW FixUP» Step 1 Airless Bottle

Step 1 is the solution used for the first part of the eyebrow lamination procedure. The product softens the hair cuticle, thus opening the cuticle scales and penetrating carefully into the hairs.
The pH of the solution is 9.0-9.5.
The product doesn’t contain thioglycolic acid salt and ammonium hydroxide.

How Step 1 works:
- due to the mild alkalizer ethanolamine, which is one of the ingredients, the solution opens the cuticle scales and provides a softer effect on the hairs than traditional ammonium thioglycolate;
- the innovative restructuring agent cysteamine hydrochloride carefully remodels disulphide bonds and sets the eyebrow hairs in place;
- the nourishing keratin-based complex protects the protein structures of the eyebrow hairs during the lamination procedure;
- urea, the component of the natural moisturising factor, retains the necessary moisture and protects the hairs from dryness and damage.
Expiration date: 24 months.
Period after opening (PAO): 2 months.
