Brovi Regular Organic Hybrid pigments are a hybrid range. This means that they consist of both organic and inorganic components.
What is the difference between the Brovi & Brovi+ lines?
All pigments from the basic Brovi brow line have aqua, Hamamelis virginiana extract, glycerin, and alcohol in their formulas. The only difference between the mixes is colorants.
In the Brovi+ line formula, there is no alcohol and no glycerin, only deionized water, Hamamelis extract, and various colorants.
Besides differences in ingredients, in the Brovi+ line, pigments have a warmer formula, and colour particles are much smaller than in the basic Brovi line.
The Brovi+ line pigments are more liquid than the regular Brovi line, which makes them perfect for the hair strokes technique and for the powder brows technique when you want to achieve natural and airy results.
How to mix colors from Brovi and Brovi+ lines
If regular Brovi pigments are too cool and saturated for your client, you can mix them with Brovi+ in a 50/50 proportion.
However, that rule doesn't apply to Gray Harbor and Freckle. These pigments won't change colour when mixed with their Brovi+ correspondent pigments.
If Brovi+ pigments are very light for your client, you can add a corresponding colour from the Brovi line and mix them together. For example, you can add 7 drops of regular Roasted Chestnut to 3 drops of Roasted Chestnut+ (you may adjust the proportions depending on the desired saturation).
You can mix the opposite colours from the Brovi+ line. For example, Gray Harbor+ & Bitter Chocolate+. When mixing these colours, you will receive a neutral brown colour that will look natural when healed.
There is no sense in mixing Roasted Chestnut+ & Bitter Chocolate+ because both colours have a warm orange base. Also, you shouldn’t mix any colour from Brovi+ line with Freckle+ or add the corrector, because this line is already very warm.
Organic or inorganic?
Brovi Regular Organic Hybrid pigments are a hybrid range. This means that they consist of both organic and inorganic components. It is wrong to think that organic is good and non-organic is bad, or vice versa. Organic components are produced as a result of organic synthesis, and inorganic components are natural and mineral components that are produced as a result of their processing and enrichment. Hybrid pigments are contemporary types of pigments that most pigment companies manufacture nowadays.
Are there iron oxides in Brovi pigments?
Since Regular Organic Hybrid pigments are hybrid (they have both organic and inorganic components ), iron oxides are present in them.
But don’t get scared of that! Iron oxides are absolutely safe and can be found in many other pigments, as well as in perfumes and some food. For example, yellow iron oxide is one of the ingredients in face foundations.
In Brovi pigments, we use red iron oxide CI7491.

Brovi Correctors
Colours Included
- Yellow corrector
- Green corrector
- Orange corrector
- Red-orange corrector

DESCRIPTION
BROVI correctors are a universal tool for permanent makeup artists. Cover low-quality PMU, even out the tone of the lips, correct the finished colours! In some cases, correctors can be mixed with the ready-to-use ink, in others they can be used separately (inks and correctors in different caps). It all depends on the specific task. There is no one single recommendation, as covering up or fixing a bad PMU is always hard work, and each case is unique in its own way.
HOW TO WORK WITH YELLOW
Designed to give a lighter tone to the main pigments when working with very light skin and white hair. Also used to correct light and purple tones on eyebrows. Recommended to use undiluted for covering. Mix orange and yellow corrector in 1:1 ratio to cover the greyish purple eyebrows. When treating skin with an excess of red pheomelanin (freckles, red shades of type V skin by Fitzpatrick), we recommend to add 2 drops of corrector to the pigment.
HOW TO WORK WITH GREEN
Designed to cover light red shades of eyebrows. Mix green and yellow correctors in a 1:1 ratio to cover pink brows. To neutralize the red tones, we recommend to use green corrector during the initial surface filling (1st pass). Do not mix green corrector with eyebrow inks.
HOW TO WORK WITH ORANGE
We recommend to add orange corrector to the pigment to get a warmer result after healing. To neutralize cool grey and blue shades, we recommend using orange corrector during the initial surface filling (1st pass). Use undiluted for covering.
HOW TO WORK WITH RED-ORANGE
To neutralize cool/blue lips, we recommend to use pure red-orange corrector during the initial surface filling (1st pass). Use the red-orange corrector to warm up the main pigment when working with lips that turn blue from at cold temperatures.
HOW TO WORK WITH SALMON
Recommended to implant in layers and tightly without mixing with the main colour: correct the colour of lips first, and then fill them with the main colour. Salmon and decorative colour may be applied either in one or two sessions.
