# How to Sterilize Microblading Tools: A Professional Guide
Sterilizing microblading tools is essential to prevent infections and meet industry health standards. Below are key steps and best practices to ensure safe, hygienic procedures.
Why Sterilization Matters
- Prevents cross-contamination and infections (e.g., hepatitis, HIV).
- Complies with health regulations (OSHA, CDC guidelines).
- Maintains client trust and professional reputation.
Sterilization Methods for Microblading Tools
1. Autoclaving (Most Effective)
- Uses steam under pressure (121°C/250°F for 15-30 mins).
- Kills bacteria, viruses, and spores.
- Recommended for reusable stainless steel handles.
2. Chemical Disinfection (For Non-Autoclavable Tools)
- Soak in EPA-approved disinfectants (e.g., Barbicide, CaviCide) for 10+ mins.
- Rinse with sterile water before use.
- Avoid alcohol—it doesn’t kill all pathogens.
3. Single-Use Disposable Tools
- Blades, needles, and cartridges should never be reused.
- Discard immediately after use in a sharps container.
Pre-Sterilization Cleaning Steps
1. Pre-clean tools – Remove pigment residue with an ultrasonic cleaner or enzymatic cleaner.
2. Rinse thoroughly – Use distilled water to avoid mineral deposits.
3. Dry completely – Moisture can compromise sterilization.
Post-Sterilization Storage
- Store in sterile pouches or UV cabinets.
- Label with sterilization dates (expires in 30 days if unopened).
Industry Standards & Compliance
- Follow CDC, OSHA, and local health department guidelines.
- Document sterilization processes for audits.
By adhering to these protocols, professionals ensure safe, compliant microblading services. For High Quality sterilized tools, explore QM Makeup’s certified supplies.

Micro Blade
Do your microblades contain nickel?
Our flex microblading needle are made of 304 stainless steel, which does contain traces of nickel. The addition of nickel can can enhance the corrosion resistance of stainless steel and increase its toughness and strength, ensuring that the material will perform consistently in a variety of environments. Since the microblades are only implanted through the skin, there is no adverse reaction to the skin under normal circumstances. If you are concerned about this, a patch test can be performed prior to the procedure.
Eyelash Perming Glue Balm
Our glue is strong and the lashes won't pop off all the time. It sets the lashes on the lash lift pads stably and is very easy to remove after the las
Does it come with a Super Glue? I am afraid that the lashes will pop off during the lash lift process.
Logistics
What are the shipping options?
Express freight: typically handled by courier companies like UPS, FedEx, and DHL, offering a fast and door-to-door service.
Land freight: typically involving truck or rail transport.
Sea freight: particularly suitable for bulk orders and products with less time-sensitive requirements.
Air freight: for time-sensitive goods.
Secondary Numbing essence
Can I use numbing products on sensitive skin? Is it safe? Are there any potential side effects?
The ingredients we use are very safe, with anti-allergic effects, and under normal circumstances there are no side effects. However, based on individual differences, it cannot be ruled out that some people may experience temporary redness or irritation in some areas. We recommend patch testing before handling and following product instructions to minimize the risk of adverse reactions.
Lash lift kit
Does the perming lotion contain the ingredient “Cysteamine” ?
Yes, some formulas contain the ingredient “Cysteamine”, then some contain the ingredient “Thioglycolic acid”. The active ingredient of the perming lotion is a reducing agent, which acts to break the disulfide bonds in the eyelash. Commonly used reducing agents are Thioglycolic acid and Cysteamine. Compare to Cysteamine, Thioglycolic acid has a strong reducing power.
