Meet BRIK & PEARL®
As Korean-inspired lash lifting continues to influence professional treatment rooms, lash and brow artists are looking for systems that offer greater control, versatility and support for the hair throughout the service.
Questions around processing, overprocessing, technique selection and product compatibility are becoming increasingly common. For many professionals, the challenge is no longer simply creating a strong lift. It is achieving consistent results while working confidently across different hair types and modern treatment methods.
Enter BRIK & PEARL®, a new professional lash lift and brow lamination system developed by the Elleebana family.
Created to deliver control, precision and professional performance, BRIK & PEARL® combines cosmetic chemistry with a three-step treatment system designed to restructure, stabilise and condition lashes and brows.
The system has been developed with today’s working lash and brow artist in mind, from traditional lash lifting and brow lamination through to freestyle, glueless and approved Korean-inspired techniques.
Reflecting on the development of the system, Elleebana’s Otto Mitter says the goal was to respond directly to what professionals were asking for in the treatment room.
“We listened closely to what lash and brow artists were asking for. More control, more flexibility, more confidence across different hair types and modern techniques. A system that considered not only the final result, but the condition of the fibre throughout the entire service. That vision became BRIK & PEARL®.”
A Three-Step Professional System
Step 1: BRIK & PEARL® Bond Flex
Bond Flex is the restructuring step of the system.
Its hybrid dual-reduction technology combines Ammonium Thioglycolate (ATG) and Cysteamine HCl to temporarily modify disulfide bonds within the hair fibre, allowing lashes and brows to be reshaped with controlled precision.
The combination brings together the efficient reducing action of ATG with the flexibility and broader processing control associated with Cysteamine HCl.
Its controlled viscosity supports precise placement across traditional, freestyle, glueless and approved modern Korean-inspired lash lift techniques.
Bond Flex also contains KeraVeg-18, a plant-derived protein and amino acid complex developed for chemically treated hair. Supplier testing has shown an improvement in the strength of chemically treated hair of up to 21%, supporting the condition of the hair during the service.
Step 2: BRIK & PEARL® Bond Lock
Bond Lock is the stabilising and setting step.
Using a hydrogen peroxide-based neutralising system, it supports controlled oxidation and the reformation of disulfide bonds, helping stabilise the hair into its newly created shape.
Together, Bond Flex and Bond Lock give professionals a considered approach to restructuring and setting the hair across a wide range of lash and brow types.
LASH LIFE™ Volume Filler
More than a traditional conditioning treatment, LASH LIFE™ Volume Filler has been created to perform multiple roles throughout the BRIK & PEARL® service.
Its peptide-rich, hydration-focused formula can be used as a Step 1.5 treatment to assist with the removal of residual Step 1 product, support pH rebalancing and prepare the hair for Step 2.
It can also be incorporated into approved Monofusion™ techniques, before returning at the end of the service as a leave-on finishing filler.
The formula combines cosmetic peptides, biomimetic proteins, botanical extracts, humectants and conditioning ingredients, including Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1, SH-Oligopeptides, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3, Panthenol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Trehalose and Glycerin.
As a final leave-on treatment, LASH LIFE™ helps condition, soften and support flexibility while adding instant visible volume to lashes and brows.
Together, the three products bring the BRIK & PEARL® treatment philosophy to life:
Restructuring. Stabilising. Replenishing.
