MicroEdge users, it's time to switch to Velvet!

by Teryn Darling

February 24, 2023

Are you a fan of MicroEdge? Wish we would keep your favorite colors in stock? Worry no longer; we have some exciting news to share!

Li Pigments has spent the last 25 years creating and manufacturing quality pigments and products. In recent years, and after creating so many different pigment lines, Li made the decision to condense the MicroEdge pigment line and phase the remaining colors into the Velvet line. Don't worry, your favorite colors aren't going to be discontinued, they're just moving lines! Keep reading for a full list of MicroEdge to Velvet colors we’ll continue carrying on the store.

Why should you make the switch to Velvet?

Like MicroEdge, the Velvet line is aimed for microbladers and those that prefer thicker pigments. Making the switch will expand the color palette you have to work with, while still keeping your tried and true pigments on your tray!

Manual hand tool artists and microbladers alike love Velvet because the formula is thicker and stays wet longer than the sister formula Aqua due to the additional glycerin and less water. While Aqua and Velvet formulas do differ, both the colors and tones are the same across both lines meaning they’ll heal as such. With countless before and afters of the healed in colors, you may even find your new favorite pigment.

Since Velvet stays wet, it’s perfect for doing a mask or a soak! Since it’s thicker, it grabs and hangs onto the hand tool a little better.

Your MicroEdge favorites aren’t leaving forever! They’re just moving lines! In fact, even their names and prices* are staying the same. Click the names below to purchase!

Saline Lightening & Removal vs. Color Correction

When does a poorly done procedure need to addressed with

If the shape is super unsymmetrical, too thick, too high, too low, too close together, you have two tails…an overall unattractive shape then we simply cannot modify and re-design. Li-FT® Saline Removal may be your only option for your client. If the shape is nice, they are the right color BUT there is just too much pigment present in the skin and they look too solid then Li-FT® Saline Removal may be the best option in achieving a less solid and more natural look for your client.  If the area is too solid and its gray, blue, orange or red, then Li-FT® Saline Removal may be your only option to achieving an acceptable brown or blonde tone. We may need to pull some of that existing pigment out in order to make room for the new pigment and for it to last.  Key word…last.

Attempting to put new pigment over a brow or any area that is already too solid with pigment does not work well, it will not last long term and is just putting a temporary fix on the problem. That old, unattractive color will show up again rather quickly and then you’re back to square one. Think of it like a glass of water, only so much can be poured into that glass before it spills over.  We must dump some of that water out to make room for the new water. Same with permanent makeup and correcting bad work…we must pull some of that old pigment out of the skin to make room for the new pigment.
