RefectoCil Two Go Pen - Natural Brown

1. Prime the pen before first use by turning it several times.
2. Apply the Colour Tint Gel to the brow area using the white pen.
3. Wait two minutes, then wipe away residue with a dry cotton pad.
4. Apply the Developer Gel to the brow area using the blue pen.
5. Wait one minute, then wipe away residue with a damp cotton pad.

• Skipping the priming step: the pen doesn't dispense gel evenly on first use. Turn the pen multiple times before the first application.
• Wiping off the Colour Tint Gel too early or too late: causes uneven colour development. Time the two-minute wait accurately.
• Using a damp pad for step one instead of dry: can lift or dilute the tint prematurely. Use a dry pad for the Colour Tint Gel step, and save the damp pad for the Developer Gel step.
• Applying to oily or made-up brows: colour won't hold evenly. Cleanse and degrease the brow area first.
• Treating the pen as a full replacement for cream tinting on every client: clients wanting a strong colour correction or a shade outside Black Brown and Natural Brown will need the full RefectoCil tint system.

Why does the tint seem to fade faster on some clients than others, even with the same wait time?

Brow hair porosity and how recently a client has had waxing or exfoliation both affect how well the tint bonds, since freshly exfoliated or waxed skin and hair can lift colour faster. For clients with a known fast-fading history, a slightly longer dry-wipe wait can help.

Can I combine the Colour Tint Gel and Developer Gel from two different pen sets if one runs low?

The two gels are formulated as a matched pair within one Two Go set, so mixing components from different shade pens isn't recommended, as it can throw off the intended tone. If one pen runs low, switch to a fresh matching set instead.

Why does the result look patchy on coarser brow hair?

Denser or coarser brow hair can resist even gel distribution from a single pen pass. Going back over sparse or coarse sections with a light second pass of Colour Tint Gel before the wait time starts typically improves evenness.

How can I get a deeper result for a client who wants more intensity than this shade offers?

Since the pen system isn't designed for custom mixing the way cream tints are, extending the Colour Tint Gel dwell time slightly, within safe limits, is the main adjustment available. For a client wanting a genuinely different tone, the full RefectoCil cream tint range is the better tool.

Does a sweaty or oily brow area affect how the pen performs?

Excess moisture or oil on the skin can interfere with the Colour Tint Gel sitting on the hair rather than the surrounding skin, increasing the chance of skin staining. Blotting the brow area dry immediately before application helps the gel adhere to the hair shaft as intended.
