#NoMakeUpMakeUpLook by Benibana Beauty Hub

This post was originally published on lovetesle by Tesle Telan

I’ve always been fascinated by semi permanent make up but I was always scared to try considering I have very low tolerance with pain. Aside from the lash extension, I also had the Ombre Powdered Eyebrows. It surprisingly didn’t hurt me as much as I expected.

The Ombre Powdered Eyebrow service only took 45 minutes to an hour and it was also nice because Sam, who did my brows, had really soft and gentle hands so I almost didn’t actually feel anything. I think I was sleeping half the time too. Hehe.

You know those decisions that you didn’t really think through? The ones that you did out of spontaneity and being in the moment? 😀 That’s what happened to me when I decided to get my Semi Permanent Lip Tint Treatment. I have always wanted to get it done because I have a couple of friends who had theirs done before and it was really nice. But since I know it was going to be a lot more painful, I didn’t expect to get enough courage and actually get it done. But I did it!!! 🙂 #proud lol

It was painful but bearable. Sam did my lip tint treatment for about an hour or so and it took a couple of days for my lips to heal and stop swelling. All I did was eat ice, drink cold water and eat ice cream. What an excuse to eat lotsa ice cream! Hehe. I love the effect after especially when my lips were still a little bit swollen and it made me look like I had lip fillers (which I am now considering too! Lol). But all in all, I love my lips and I have finally achieved the #WokeUpLikeThis look. 😛 Because I’m a lot busier now more than ever, I don’t really have the time to put on make up anymore which is why I really wanted to get my semi permanent make up: brows, lashes and lips done. Now I can just roll out of bed, take a shower, comb my hair and run to the door. When I have two minutes to spare, I usually apply powder but I am hoping to try the Korean Nano BB Glow at Benibana Beauty Hub too cause it helps you achieve that radiant, poreless looking skin and it lasts for up to 4 months!

Semi Permanent Make Up Treatments I had at Benibana Beauty Hub:

Lash Extension, Ombre Powdered Eye and Lip Tint.

  • With Lighten Up, you can try a brighter hair experience all from the comfort of your own home! Bleach your hair to achieve the color of your dreams. 
  • We’ve included the essentials so you can DIY the bleaching experience, but please note that it’s always better to have your hair bleached by a professional stylist. 

First things first!

Before bleaching, please make sure to prepare your hair properly. If this is your first time, we recommend consulting with your stylist first before trying at home.

What you’ll need:

  • Kit inclusions
    • Brush
    • Ear Caps
    • Mixing Bowl (300ml)
    • Bleach Powder (50g)
    • Developer (100ml)
    • L'Oréal Superbond Additive (8ml)
    • L'Oréal Superbond Treatment (16ml)
  • Optional
    • Old clothes and/or towels
    • Shower cap and/or hair clips
    • Lukewarm water
    • Timer

Preparing your hair

  • For previously treated or processed hair, we recommend waiting 3 months before bleaching.
  • To make sure your hair is well moisturized, deep-condition with masks at least twice a week for 2 weeks before bleaching.
  • The night before bleaching, soak your hair with coconut oil to help prevent significant protein loss and heavy damage.

Bleaching your hair

  1. Make sure to wear clothes you don’t mind getting bleach on! You can use an old shirt or clean towels to cover your shoulders and neck.
  2. Next, part your hair into sections using hair clips you have on hand and use the ear covers provided in the kit.
  3. Remember to put on the protective gloves before mixing and bleaching your hair. Use the brush provided to mix our ingredients.
  4. To make the hair bleach, pour ½ of the bleaching powder and ½ of the developer in the bowl provided. Mix until it’s a smooth cream. Then, pour ½ of the additive into the bowl and mix it into the cream.
  5. By using half of the ingredients, you can save the remaining products to mix as a second batch after your first application.
  6. Take one section of hair and use the brush to apply the bleach starting an inch away from the roots. Make sure to apply the bleach evenly to the rest of the sections, leaving the roots for later.*
  7. After the first application, let the product settle. Wait 20 minutes, then start mixing the remaining ingredients to make the second batch of hair bleach.
  8. Now, apply the second batch evenly to the roots of your hair. Once done, let the product settle again, this time waiting 10-15 minutes. 
  9. After a total of 35 minutes with the bleach, rinse your hair thoroughly with cold water, then towel dry. Apply the treatment on your towel-dried hair, then wait for 10 more minutes.
  10. Finally, rinse your hair thoroughly once again to remove all of the remaining products.

*If irritation occurs, please discontinue use. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor.

Caring for your hair

  • Please avoid heating or styling your bleached hair for at least two (2) weeks.
  • We recommend using natural or organic hair products. Chemicals can cause damage to your hair, especially after bleaching.
  • Consider using toner for your bleached and colored hair. You can use purple, sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to help neutralize unwanted undertones.
