Li Pigments SOFT FX PIGMENT DILUTION SOLUTION
Soft FX is a specialized solution formulated for artist who choose to dillute (and therefore lessen the concentration) of any of the colors listed on the CIC to create artistic variations of density and dimension.
Eyeliner: Create a multi-dimensional eyelash enhancement/eyeliner effect.Use full strength pigment in the lash line(eyelash enhancement procedure). To achieve a soft, smoky eyeliner (above the lash line) dilute the same color for the eyeliner. Note of caution:Carbon blacks have a much higher risk of migration.Diluting carbon black does not lessen this risk. LI recommeds only experienced artist use carbon blacks whether for strength or dilluted.
Eyebrows: Useful when the client has natural eyebrow hair and prefers a soft,powdery background as opposed to a more noticeable apperance. Dilute the eyebrow pigment to the desired concentration to create a soft powdery healed eyebrow.
Lips: To create a borderless full lip appearance;use soft FX to dilute the lip pigment to the desire concentration and tattoo the virmillion border. This technique is used when the client does not prefer a defined healed lip line.
Areola: Dilute the areola pigment to the desired concentration to create a soft powdery foundation. To add depth and dimension,layer the same pigment color, full strenght concetration, over the diluted pigment.
