What do bone brow, embo and shadow brow mean?

• Bone brow: a brow treatment or design that keeps your natural brow shape while tidying the outline, giving a clean, natural look with no artificial feel.
• Natural brow (emboss): "emboss" comes from embossing, a technique that adds depth with engraved and raised texture on the skin or hair surface. It is an eyebrow tattoo or design that adds natural shading and dimension so the brows look real.
• Shadow brow (suji): a technique that adds soft, shaded color around the brows so they look clearer and fuller.

How the black tint lash lift and under-lash lift were done

The writer got a black tint lash lift and an under-lash lift at Saero Beauty. The treatment went through five steps: consultation, cleansing, rod placement, solution application and a nourishing finish.

• 1. Detailed consultation and eye check: they carefully checked my lashes, eye shape and even how sensitive my skin is, then chose the lift strength and curl height that suited my eyes.
• 2. Cleansing away debris on the lashes: makeup residue and oil were washed off, so I felt safe and irritation-free. Nothing touched my eyes or dripped, so it was comfortable. They say this step makes the lift work much better.
• 3. Careful silicone rod placement: rods were chosen to match my lash length and thickness and attached precisely on the eyelid, and each lash was wrapped around the rod by hand to make a natural shape.
• 4. Lash lift solution: the perm and neutralizing solutions were applied neatly and quickly, and each step was explained kindly, so I never felt anxious.
• 5. To finish, a premium nourishing serum is applied and the lash lift is done!

The whole process was systematic and thoughtful, so I felt comfortable, and I was thrilled that my droopy left eye was fixed. A clear before and after!

How long does a lash lift last, and what should you avoid?

According to Saero Beauty, the curl lasts naturally for 6 weeks or more, which is great. For about a week after the treatment, avoid jjimjilbang (Korean bathhouses), saunas and swimming pools, and applying a lash serum regularly is said to make the curl last longer.

My double eyelids used to be uneven, but now my eyes are the same size. My eyes look more defined, my impression is brighter and my face looks livelier, so I can't not get a lash lift.
