Elan Eyebrow Lamination Expert System «BROW FixUP» Step 1, 10 ml ( Airless Bottle)

BROW FixUP expert system in vacuum packaging by TM ÉLAN Professional Line, consists of Step 1 and Step 2 and developed by professional beauty specialists for the eyebrow lamination procedure. The solutions included in the system work exclusively in a complex and are not interchangeable.

Step 1 is used for the first part of the eyebrow lamination procedure. The soft formula allows the product to gently soften the hair cuticle, open the scales and carefully penetrate into the hair structure.
The pH of the solution is 9,0‒9,5.
The product doesn’t contain thioglycolic acid salt and ammonium hydroxide.

Step 1 contains several active ingredients that effectively remodel carefully disulfide bonds and sets the eyebrow hairs in place:

ethanolamine (mild alkali) opens cuticle scales and provides a softer effect on the hairs than traditional ammonium thioglycolate;
the innovative restructuring agent cysteamine hydrochloride remodels carefully disulfide 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 retains the necessary moisture and protects the hairs from dryness and damage. This component also prevents possible dehydration and hair breakage.
NOTE! Over time Step 1 can have yellowish colour because of cysteamine hydrochloride peculiarities. The presence of sulfur odor is also acceptable.


How to use:

1. Analyze the eyebrow hair condition of a client- this will affect the exposure time of the lamination compositions:
1-st type: the eyebrow hairs are thick, spiky, not having undergone chemical procedures earlier (the eyebrow tinting or bleaching procedures) – processing time is 12–15 minutes;
2-nd type: the eyebrow hairs are of the medium thickness, natural, healthy or having undergone chemical procedures earlier (the eyebrow tinting or bleaching procedures) – processing time is 6–12 minutes.

2. Cleanse the eyebrow and the eyebrow area with ÉLAN Detox- Mousse with a degreasing effect.

Step 1:
apply a thin layer of the argan oil cream on the eyebrows and a thick layer on areas around the eyebrows;
use make-up brush in order to apply Step 1 on the eyebrows, then cover the application area with a laminating film. Depending on the initial condition of the eyebrow hairs, the exposure time of Step1 is 6 – 15 minutes;
when the processing time is finished, remove the film, carefully brush the hairs, carefully setting them in the right direction (it is important to take into account the natural direction of growth). If necessary, re-cover the eyebrow area with a film and leave for another 3-5 minutes.

NOTE! The maximum processing time should not exceed the processing time for the selected eyebrow hair type.
When the processing time is finished, remove the excess of the solution with a cotton pad, moistened with water.
