FACE Black Brown – Mineral Brow Corrector

A mineral, cool black-brown corrector used to darken the base mix.

Formerly FACE Graphite. FACE has renewed the formulas of the Minerals line and renamed several shades. If you used to work with Graphite, Black Brown is its successor.

How to work with it

• Use correctors on light residue only
• Light residue: lay the corrector in the first pass, then work with the main shade
• Difficult cases: work with the corrector at the first procedure, let it heal, then refine with the main shade at the touch-up
• Apply like the base palette: dense, short strokes with a large overlap

Before you start

If the old work is bright and dense, send the client to laser removal first to lighten it and make room for new pigment. Otherwise you risk an over-saturated result with the wrong colour and shape.

Recommended mixes

• Black Brown + Dark — rich, deep brown
• Black Brown + Dark + Bronze — deeper tone with added warmth

FAQ

I used to work with FACE Graphite. Which shade replaces it?
Black Brown. FACE has renewed the formulas of the whole Minerals line and renamed several shades: Dark Blonde is now Light, Light Brown is now Medium, Warm Brown is now Warm and Graphite is now Black Brown. Blonde, Bronze and Gold keep their names.

When should I send the client to removal first?
When the residue is bright and dense. Correctors are designed for light residue.

How many procedures does one bottle cover?
On average a 6 ml bottle covers 9–13 procedures and a 12 ml bottle 18–26. Actual consumption depends on the starting skin, the number of passes and the technique.

Can I mix FACE with pigments of other brands?
FACE does not recommend it: liquid bases and auxiliary ingredients differ between brands, so compatibility can’t be guaranteed.

The pigment won’t come out of the bottle. What should I do?
The narrow nozzle may have dried. Gently pierce it with a needle.
