Meet BRIK & PEARL®

The Hybrid Lash Lift + Brow Lamination System Changing the Game

September 8, 2026

The lash lift industry has changed—a lot. Traditional lash lifting is no longer the only technique artists are using. Korean-inspired lash lifts, glueless methods, lash lamination, brow lamination and newer techniques like Monofusion™ have expanded what's possible behind the treatment bed. Artists are working differently than they were even a few years ago—and now, the chemistry is evolving right along with the techniques. Meet BRIK & PEARL®. Launching in the U.S. September 8 at Elleebana Direct, BRIK & PEARL® is a three-part professional lash lift and brow lamination system created with versatility, control and customization in mind. And one of the things we're most excited about? Hybrid chemistry.

Why Hybrid Chemistry?

At the heart of the BRIK & PEARL® system is Bond Flex, an innovative Step 1 formula that combines two reducing agents: Ammonium Thioglycolate and Cysteamine HCl. Traditionally, artists have become familiar with systems formulated around one reduction chemistry or the other. BRIK & PEARL® brings the two together in a hybrid dual-reduction formula designed to restructure the hair's bonds while giving the professional control and flexibility over the finished result. Why does that matter? Because lashes and brows aren't one-size-fits-all. Hair strength, texture, porosity and resistance can vary dramatically from client to client. The ability to assess the hair in front of you and adapt your approach accordingly is becoming an increasingly important part of modern lash and brow artistry. BRIK & PEARL® was designed with exactly that kind of customization in mind.

Three Products. One Complete System.

The BRIK & PEARL® system consists of three products, each with its own role in the service.

BOND FLEX — Restructure. Shape. Customize.

Bond Flex is where the transformation begins. Its hybrid dual-reduction formula combines Ammonium Thioglycolate and Cysteamine HCl to restructure the hair's bonds, allowing lashes or brows to be repositioned into the desired shape. The formula also incorporates KeraVeg-18, plant-derived proteins and amino acids to support the cosmetic condition of the hair during processing, while its controlled viscosity allows for precise product placement. For the artist, Bond Flex is about more than simply completing “Step 1.” It's about assessing the natural hair and creating the flexibility needed to customize lift, curl and direction.

BOND LOCK — Stabilize. Set. Lock It In.

Once the hair has been restructured, Bond Lock takes over. Step 2 is designed to stabilize the newly created shape and support the reformation of the hair's bonds, locking the lashes or brows into their new formation. Together, Bond Flex and Bond Lock create the foundation of the system: first creating the flexibility for transformation, then stabilizing that transformation into place.

LASH LIFE™ Volume Filler — More Than a Step 3

And then there's LASH LIFE™—one of the most interesting parts of the BRIK & PEARL® system. Rather than functioning solely as a finishing product, LASH LIFE™ Volume Filler is a multi-use conditioning treatment that can be incorporated at different points throughout an approved BRIK & PEARL® service. It can be used as Step 1.5 following Bond Flex to assist with residual product removal, support pH rebalancing and prepare the hair for Bond Lock. It can also be incorporated into approved Monofusion™ techniques or used as a leave-on Step 3 finishing filler to condition, hydrate and enhance the appearance of the lashes or brows. Its peptide-rich, hydration-focused formula includes cosmetic peptides and polypeptides along with ingredients such as Panthenol, Sodium Hyaluronate, botanical extracts and humectants to support softness, flexibility and beautifully conditioned hair. In other words, while Bond Flex and Bond Lock handle the structural transformation, LASH LIFE™ brings conditioning and replenishment into the equation.

One System, Multiple Techniques

This may be where BRIK & PEARL® gets particularly exciting for today's lash and brow artist. The system isn't limited to one style of lifting. It is suitable for traditional lash lifting, Korean lash lifting, lash lamination, brow lamination and Monofusion™ techniques. That versatility matters as more artists move beyond a single method and begin choosing their technique based on the client's natural lashes, desired result and their own artistic approach. Processing times are intended as a guide, and BRIK & PEARL® emphasizes assessing the hair throughout the service. Factors including ambient temperature, product viscosity and the amount of balm or adhesive used can influence processing, which is why Flex and Set Checks should be performed throughout the service to determine readiness for the individual hair type. It's a philosophy we love because it puts the focus back where it belongs: on understanding the hair in front of you rather than simply watching the clock.

Built for the Way Lash Artists Are Working Now

We've watched the lash lift industry evolve tremendously over the years and artists are becoming more knowledgeable about chemistry. They're learning new techniques, experimenting with different approaches and becoming increasingly interested in understanding why their products work—not simply following the exact same protocol on every client. BRIK & PEARL® feels built for that evolution. The hybrid reduction chemistry offers a new approach to restructuring. The system provides flexibility across multiple techniques. And LASH LIFE™ adds a conditioning-focused component that can be incorporated throughout the service rather than simply being an afterthought at the end. It's a system designed for artists who want to understand the hair, understand the chemistry and customize the service. And we think that's exactly where this industry is headed.

BRIK & PEARL® Has Arrived in the U.S.

BRIK & PEARL® officially launches in the United States September 8 at Elleebana Direct, and we are incredibly excited to finally put it in the hands of U.S. artists. The complete system includes Bond Flex Step 1, Bond Lock Step 2 and LASH LIFE™ Volume Filler, giving professionals a versatile new approach to lash lifting and brow lamination—from restructuring and setting through conditioning and finishing. And this is just the beginning. We'll be sharing more BRIK & PEARL® education, application techniques, videos, product knowledge and tips as artists begin working with the system.
