RefectoCil Lash and Brown Tinting - Mini Starter Kit
A Compact Two-Shade Kit Built for Beginners
The RefectoCil Mini Starter Kit is a compact entry point into eyelash and eyebrow tinting, built for beginners, beauty students, and home users. It bundles two of the most popular shades — Deep Black and Natural Brown — with a gentle cream oxidant and reusable mixing bowls and brushes, giving newcomers everything needed for easy, professional-looking results. Its smaller, travel-friendly footprint also makes it a convenient option for a school kit or take-along set.
Product details
- Trend/Popularity: Natural, defined lash and brow colour without daily makeup remains a steady client request, and a two-shade kit covers the most commonly wanted looks.
- Ease & Speed: A gentle cream oxidant and simple mix-and-apply process makes the 5–10 minute service approachable for someone still building technique.
- Income Opportunity: A low-cost, low-commitment kit gives a student or new technician a way to start offering paid tinting services before investing in a full professional kit.
Beginners and beauty students learning the tinting process will use this as an accessible, low-cost starting point. Home users tinting their own lashes or brows benefit from the pre-measured, two-shade simplicity. Mobile or traveling artists can use its compact size as a school or take-along kit. It suits anyone wanting black for lashes and brown for brows, or the two combined, without committing to a full multi-shade range.
Everything here is scaled and simplified for a first-time or occasional user.
- 2x RefectoCil Tint, 15 ml each (1x Deep Black + 1x Natural Brown): Covers the two most requested shades — black for lashes, brown for brows — in one kit.
- 1x Oxidant Cream, 50 ml: A gentle cream developer that's easy to mix and apply without irritation for a first-timer.
- 2x Plastic mixing bowls + 2x Flat application brushes: Reusable tools included so no separate purchase is needed to get started.
- Remove makeup and cleanse lashes and brows so they are clean, dry, and oil-free.
- Place protective pads under the lower lashes.
- In a bowl, mix approximately 2 cm of tint with 10 drops of oxidant until creamy.
- Apply to lashes or brows using the brush and leave for 5–10 minutes.
- Wipe off with a cotton pad, then rinse thoroughly with water.
- Skipping the protective pads under the lower lashes: increases the risk of skin staining or eye irritation. Always place pads before applying tint.
- Estimating the tint-to-oxidant ratio without measuring: an off-ratio mix can develop unevenly. Use the stated 2 cm of tint to 10 drops of oxidant.
- Rushing the mixing step: an under-mixed paste can be lumpy or inconsistent. Mix until fully creamy before applying.
- Not doing a patch test as a first-time user: any new tint product carries a small allergy risk. Patch test before the first full application.
- Leaving the tint on beyond 10 minutes hoping for more colour: risks skin irritation, especially for a beginner still learning to judge timing. Stay within the 5–10 minute window.

Can Deep Black and Natural Brown from this kit be mixed together for a softer black-brown tone?
Yes, RefectoCil cream tints are mixable across shades, so combining the two included colours is a reasonable way to create a softer, in-between tone for a client who finds pure black too harsh.
As a beginner, how do I know when to wipe off the tint instead of following the timer exactly?
Since hair porosity varies, checking the colour with a damp cotton swab a minute or two before the planned removal time is a good habit to build early, rather than relying purely on the clock every time.
Is it normal for the mixed paste to feel slightly thin compared to what I expected?
The Oxidant Cream is formulated to be gentle and easy to mix, so the resulting paste is naturally softer than some professional-strength combinations — as long as it's smooth and creamy rather than watery, it's within normal range.
How many times can I reuse the mixing bowls and brushes included in the kit?
They're designed to be reusable across many applications as long as they're cleaned thoroughly with warm water or a degreasing solution between uses to prevent product buildup affecting future mixes.
If I'm using this kit on myself at home, is there anything I should do differently from a salon application?
Working in a mirror on your own eyes takes more care with pad placement and timing since you can't rely on a second set of hands, so many home users find it easier to start on brows only before attempting self-application on lashes.
