Its advanced micellar technology attracts makeup "magnetically," ensuring thorough cleansing without harsh rubbing, which is essential before lash and brow tinting services .

2. Is this product oil-free and why is that important?
Yes, the formula is completely oil-free . This is critical because any oily residue left on the lashes or brows can prevent tint from penetrating the hair shaft, resulting in uneven color or poor adhesion of lash lift tools .

6. How do I use it for best results before tinting?
