Regret reversal: Permanent makeup removal potential in plant-based ingredients
Permanent makeup has been a growing trend in color cosmetics, but transparency around removers for these tattoos could be improved and infused with plants, researchers say.
Humans have tattooed themselves for millennia, and in recent years there has been an increasing trend in tattooing a permanent makeup look. If someone wants their permanent makeup tattoo removed, one option is a liquid-based remover.
A research team out of Greece, Andreou et al, published a paper in Cosmetics exploring the effectiveness of a plant-based liquid permanent makeup remover.
“Permanent makeup such as eyeliner, brow liner, and lip liner has become increasingly popular throughout the world,” Andreou et al said. “The popularity of permanent makeup has increased the number of permanent makeup artists all over the world and permanent makeup applications but has also led to an increased demand for its removal.”
