Using a sterile spatula or a gloved finger, pull the pigment straight down across the black bar with firm pressure. The dense deposit at the top reveals the masstone (bottle colour). The sheerer wash just above the black bar represents the midtone (your true healed colour), while the portion dragged directly over the black bar exposes the underlying basetone (warm or cool). Do not reuse pages in order to prevent chemical cross-contamination between pigment formulas.\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin-top: 15px; margin-bottom: 5px; color: #333;\"\u003eLuna’s Bench Protocol \u0026amp; PMU Aftercare\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThis pad is my absolute secret weapon during client consultations, especially for tricky lip blush cases.
