Choosing a permanent makeup machine is not only about technical specifications. The device must feel comfortable in the hand, adapt to different procedures and fit naturally into the artist’s daily workflow. The Microbeau E.L.B adjustable stroke PMU machine collection at BVShop brings these priorities together in one clear, versatile platform available in four distinctive colours: Blush Pink, Matte Black, Cascade Blue and Smoky Quartz.
E.L.B stands for Eyes, Lips and Brows, reflecting the machine’s multi-procedure design. Its stroke can be adjusted from 2.2 mm to 3.4 mm in 0.2 mm increments, allowing trained artists to adapt the machine to their preferred techniques, cartridge configurations and working style. A full-colour display, three memory presets, wireless operation and a lightweight 128 g body make the E.L.B a practical option for students, PMU academies and established artists who want one approachable machine for a varied workflow.
The four versions share the same technical platform, so choosing a colour does not mean compromising on performance. Instead, the finish lets each artist select a machine that suits a personal aesthetic, complements a studio interior or helps distinguish equipment across multiple training stations.
What Makes the Microbeau E.L.B Different?
The Microbeau E.L.B is designed to keep setup clear and flexible. Rather than requiring a separate fixed-stroke device for every type of PMU work, it provides a selectable 2.2–3.4 mm stroke range. The marked adjustment positions lock securely into place, while the display keeps the main operating information visible throughout the session.
At the heart of the machine is a brushless coreless motor engineered for steady, low-vibration operation. Its tapered body measures approximately 22–29 mm in width and is balanced to support controlled handling. The E.L.B works with universal PMU cartridges, allowing artists to choose compatible cartridge configurations according to their training, technique and manufacturer guidance.
The included rechargeable battery supports cordless working, while the RCA module and cable provide an alternative wired setup. This combination is useful for artists who move between workstations, attend courses or want the flexibility to continue working with an external power supply when required.
Adjustable Stroke for Eyes, Lips and Brows
Stroke length describes how far the needle mechanism travels during each cycle. An adjustable-stroke PMU machine gives the artist more freedom to change the machine’s mechanical feel and response instead of working with one fixed configuration. With seven marked positions between 2.2 mm and 3.4 mm, the Microbeau E.L.B can support a broad range of PMU workflows.
Shorter settings are commonly explored for controlled, delicate work and soft pixel techniques, while longer settings can provide a more direct feel for techniques that require broader coverage. Microbeau presents 2.2–2.8 mm for brow shading and pixel work, 2.2–2.5 mm for precision eyeliner and 2.8–3.4 mm for lip saturation as starting ranges. These are not universal instructions: the appropriate setting also depends on the artist’s training, hand speed, cartridge, voltage, pigment, skin assessment and chosen technique. Artists should always follow approved training and the manufacturer’s guidance.
Brows
For brow work, an adjustable stroke gives the artist room to move between soft powder effects, pixel-based shading and other machine techniques without changing the entire device. The ability to make small 0.2 mm adjustments is particularly useful while developing a consistent personal setup.
Eyes
Eyeliner work requires controlled handling and a setup appropriate for the delicate eye area. The E.L.B’s clearly marked stroke selector, visible display and balanced body help keep adjustments easy to follow. Use around the eyes is intended only for appropriately trained professionals following relevant safety protocols.
Lips
Lip blush and lip colour workflows may involve different movements and coverage needs from brow or eyeliner work. The E.L.B allows the artist to select a longer stroke within the available range when this is appropriate for the chosen technique, while retaining the same familiar grip and control layout.
Choose Your Microbeau E.L.B Colour
Professional equipment is part of the visual identity of a studio. A coordinated workstation can look considered and welcoming, while a distinctive machine colour can make personal equipment easier to recognise during courses, guest work or multi-artist studio days. BVShop offers the E.L.B in four finishes, each with a different character.
Blush Pink: Soft, Modern and Creative

Blush Pink brings a gentle, contemporary accent to the workstation. It suits studios with soft neutral interiors, pink branding, warm metallic details or a light, feminine visual identity. The colour is expressive without looking overly bright, so it can complement both minimalist and decorative spaces.
This finish is a natural choice for artists who enjoy coordinating their machine with pink accessories, storage cases or branded content. It also stands out clearly against black work surfaces, making the device easy to identify while keeping the overall look polished.
Matte Black: Minimal, Professional and Timeless

Matte Black is the most understated option in the collection. Its clean, neutral appearance works naturally with almost any studio palette, from monochrome procedure rooms to industrial interiors and bold brand colours. It is a strong choice for artists who prefer professional equipment to look discreet and consistent.
Black also coordinates easily with common PMU accessories, power supplies, trays and protective equipment. For academies creating matching training stations or studios using a uniform equipment scheme, Matte Black provides a cohesive, timeless look.
Cascade Blue: Fresh, Confident and Easy to Recognise

Cascade Blue adds a cool, fresh colour to the E.L.B design. It works especially well in bright modern studios, interiors with blue or silver accents and brands built around clean, contemporary visuals. The blue finish is noticeable without becoming distracting at the workstation.
For educators and artists working in shared environments, Cascade Blue can also serve a practical purpose by making a particular machine easy to recognise. It is a distinctive alternative for anyone who wants more colour than classic black while keeping the overall appearance crisp and professional.
Smokey Quartz: Refined, Warm and Distinctive

Smokey Quartz offers a warmer, more subdued alternative to black. Its earthy, sophisticated character pairs well with beige, taupe, brown, bronze and natural studio interiors. It is ideal for artists who prefer a neutral aesthetic but still want their machine to feel individual.
This finish can complement premium, organic or quietly luxurious branding without relying on a bright statement colour. Smoky Quartz sits comfortably between classic and contemporary, making it a versatile choice for a long-term professional setup.
| Colour | Visual Character | Pairs Well With | Technical Platform |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blush Pink | Soft and creative | Light, warm or pink studio palettes | Same E.L.B specifications |
| Matte Black | Minimal and timeless | Monochrome or any brand palette | Same E.L.B specifications |
| Cascade Blue | Fresh and distinctive | Cool, modern or silver-accented interiors | Same E.L.B specifications |
| Smokey Quartz | Warm and refined | Neutral, earthy or premium interiors | Same E.L.B specifications |
Important: all four colours provide the same core E.L.B features. The choice is visual, so artists can select the finish that best matches their style without giving up a preferred technical specification.
Microbeau E.L.B Advantages at a Glance
The E.L.B occupies a particularly useful position in the Microbeau machine range. It is more adaptable than a single fixed-stroke machine, simpler to configure than a feature-heavy premium system and designed around the three core areas many PMU artists work with most often: eyes, lips and brows. This balance makes it relevant not only as a first professional machine, but also as an uncomplicated everyday option for experienced artists.
- Seven stroke positions in one machine: the 2.2–3.4 mm range adjusts in small 0.2 mm increments, giving the artist more choice than a model purchased with one fixed stroke.
- No separate cam purchase or replacement: the stroke is selected directly on the machine, helping keep the workstation and travel kit simpler.
- Designed for the main PMU areas: its name and stroke range are centred on brows, eyeliner and lips rather than one narrowly defined application.
- Clear full-colour display: essential operating information remains visible on the machine instead of relying on guesswork or an external app.
- Three programmable memory presets: frequently used configurations can be saved, reducing repetitive adjustments when moving between established workflows.
- Wireless and RCA configurations: the included battery supports cordless movement, while the RCA module provides a useful alternative for a fixed workstation.
- Low-vibration brushless coreless motor: designed to support steady handling and a more comfortable working experience.
- Universal PMU cartridge compatibility: artists are not limited to a single proprietary cartridge line.
- Clearly marked stroke adjustment: secure positions make the selected stroke easier to identify and repeat.
- Four visual options: Blush Pink, Matte Black, Cascade Blue and Smoky Quartz make it easier to coordinate personal equipment, studio branding or academy stations.
Microbeau E.L.B Compared With Other Microbeau PMU Machines
Microbeau offers several respected machines, but they are not interchangeable. Each model prioritises a different balance of stroke options, weight, power format, advanced controls and price. Comparing the E.L.B with the Flux Mini, Xion S and Bellar Air helps show why the E.L.B can be the stronger choice for some artists while another machine may be more appropriate for a specialised workflow.
| Model | Stroke System | Power Format | Approx. Weight | Best Suited To |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Microbeau E.L.B | Adjustable 2.2–3.4 mm in 0.2 mm steps | Wireless battery or RCA module | 128 g with battery | Students, academies and multi-procedure PMU workflows |
| Microbeau Flux Mini | Fixed 2.5 mm or 3.0 mm version | Wireless PowerBolt Mini | 106 g machine body | Artists prioritising compact size and a known fixed stroke |
| Microbeau Xion S | Interchangeable 1.8, 2.5, 3.2 or 3.7 mm cams | Wired RCA | Approx. 134 g | Artists who prefer cam-based customisation and wired control |
| Microbeau Bellar Air | Fixed 2.1 mm or 3.0 mm version | Wireless or Mini DC | Approx. 109.6 g | Experienced artists wanting eGive, Bluetooth and premium controls |
The values above describe the main configurations presented by Microbeau and BVShop. Exact package contents, battery configuration and available stroke version can vary by product, so the selected listing should always be checked before purchase.
Microbeau E.L.B vs Flux Mini
The Flux Mini is designed around portability. Its compact machine body weighs approximately 106 g and is offered in a 2.5 mm or 3.0 mm stroke version. This can be an advantage for an artist who already knows exactly which fixed stroke fits a regular technique and wants a smaller wireless setup. Its PowerBolt Mini system also supports an interchangeable battery workflow.
The E.L.B is the more flexible choice when an artist does not want to commit to only 2.5 mm or 3.0 mm. Its seven stroke positions cover settings below, between and above those two options. An artist can explore a softer 2.2 mm configuration, move through 2.4, 2.6, 2.8 and 3.0 mm, or select 3.2 and 3.4 mm without purchasing another machine version. The full-colour display and three memory presets also make the selected setup easier to view and repeat.
Why choose the E.L.B instead of the Flux Mini? Choose it when adjustable stroke and learning across eyes, lips and brows matter more than having the smallest possible machine body. Choose the Flux Mini when lower body weight, a compact format and a familiar fixed stroke are the stronger priorities.
Microbeau E.L.B vs Xion S
The Xion S uses interchangeable cams to provide several stroke options, including 1.8, 2.5, 3.2 and 3.7 mm. This wider overall span can appeal to experienced artists who understand the response they want from a particular cam and are comfortable changing physical components. The Xion S is a wired machine, which may also suit artists who prefer a conventional power supply and do not need an integrated battery.
The E.L.B makes stroke changes more immediate. Its 2.2–3.4 mm settings are adjusted on the device, so there is no need to remove and replace a cam when moving between the available positions. It also offers more closely spaced intermediate settings within its range. Wireless operation is included, while the RCA module preserves the option of a wired workstation.
Why choose the E.L.B instead of the Xion S? The E.L.B is better suited to artists who want quicker stroke selection, cordless freedom and a visible digital interface in one package. The Xion S remains relevant when the artist specifically wants its 1.8 mm or 3.7 mm cams, prefers its established grip and response, or works primarily with an RCA power supply.
Microbeau E.L.B vs Bellar Air
The Bellar Air is positioned as a premium control-focused PMU machine. Depending on the selected version, it uses a fixed 2.1 mm or 3.0 mm stroke. Its advanced features include eGive adjustment and Bluetooth compatibility, giving experienced artists additional ways to refine the machine’s response and interact with supported Darklab equipment.
The E.L.B does not include eGive or Bluetooth, but that simpler feature set is part of its appeal. An artist who does not need connected controls can concentrate on stroke, voltage and technique without paying for functions that may remain unused. More importantly, the E.L.B replaces the Bellar Air’s fixed-stroke choice with a continuous selection of seven defined positions across 2.2–3.4 mm.
Why choose the E.L.B instead of the Bellar Air? It is the more straightforward and versatile option for training, general eyes-lips-brows work and artists who value adjustable stroke over eGive or Bluetooth. Bellar Air is the better match for advanced users who deliberately want its premium electronic controls, lighter format and specific fixed-stroke behaviour.
Where the E.L.B Has the Clearest Advantage
The E.L.B has its strongest advantage when one artist wants to cover several core PMU services with one uncomplicated device. It reduces the need to choose a fixed stroke before purchase, removes the step of changing cams, and offers both wireless and RCA operation from the supplied system. For an academy, this also creates a consistent teaching platform: each student can use the same machine model while learning how controlled changes in stroke affect the feel of a setup.
Its value is therefore not based on having every premium function. It comes from combining the features most artists are likely to use regularly and presenting them in an accessible format. For someone who needs eGive, Bluetooth, an exceptionally short 1.8 mm cam, a longer 3.7 mm cam or the lightest possible body, another Microbeau model may be preferable. For broad PMU versatility with fewer purchasing decisions, the E.L.B is often the more logical starting point.
Why the Microbeau E.L.B Is a Strong Choice for Beginners
A first professional PMU machine should help a student understand the relationship between the equipment and the technique without adding unnecessary complexity. The Microbeau E.L.B was developed with training, academies and developing artists in mind. Its controls are visible, its stroke positions are clearly marked and its core functions are relevant to the procedures most students learn first: brows, eyeliner and lips.
The adjustable stroke is especially valuable during education. Buying a fixed 2.5 mm or 3.0 mm machine requires the student to make a technical choice before gaining enough practical experience to understand that preference. With the E.L.B, different positions within the 2.2–3.4 mm range can be explored on practice materials under an educator’s supervision. This helps the student compare machine response while keeping the same body shape, motor and control interface.
The full-colour display provides another practical benefit. Students can see the active information directly on the device and learn to record a complete setup rather than remembering only one element. Three memory presets can then be used to save configurations established with an educator. Presets improve consistency and setup speed, but they should never be treated as universal procedure settings; cartridge choice, hand speed, technique and individual assessment still matter.
Wireless operation helps keep the learning station uncluttered and removes a cable from the artist’s hand movement. At the same time, the supplied RCA module introduces students to a traditional wired configuration without requiring a second machine. This makes the E.L.B useful both in an academy and later in a working studio where a backup power option may be valuable.
The universal PMU cartridge format also gives a new artist room to compare compatible cartridge configurations as training progresses. Instead of building an entire setup around a closed cartridge system, the student can make selections based on qualified instruction and the requirements of the chosen technique.
Beginner-Friendly Features That Matter in Practice
- One machine for three core PMU areas: a student can build familiarity with the same device while learning brows, eyeliner and lips.
- Small, clearly defined stroke steps: seven positions support structured comparison rather than a vague unmarked adjustment.
- Visible operating information: the display helps the learner check and document the selected setup.
- Memory presets: approved configurations can be saved for easier repetition during organised practice.
- Low-vibration operation: a steady motor response supports the development of controlled hand movement.
- Balanced, pen-style format: the familiar shape is straightforward to hold while developing grip and movement habits.
- Wireless freedom with an RCA alternative: students can experience both setups without changing machines.
- Room to grow: the adjustable platform remains useful when the artist moves from supervised practice to a broader professional workflow.
The E.L.B can make equipment selection easier, but it cannot replace accredited education, hygiene knowledge or supervised practice. Beginners should not select stroke or voltage solely from a blog article. Settings must be developed through qualified training, manufacturer documentation, cartridge guidance and careful practice before professional use.
Is the E.L.B Only for Beginners?
No. Describing the E.L.B as beginner-friendly does not mean it is limited to entry-level work. Experienced artists may value it for precisely the same reasons: quick stroke adjustment, reduced setup clutter, clear on-device controls and the ability to move between several common PMU workflows without changing machines.
It can serve as an everyday studio device, a travel machine, a reliable training machine for an educator or a flexible additional option alongside a more specialised model. A Bellar Air user, for example, may still choose an E.L.B for courses or situations where adjustable stroke is more useful than Bluetooth and eGive. A fixed-stroke Flux Mini user may add it when a broader range of settings is required. The E.L.B is therefore best understood as an accessible all-rounder rather than a machine that an artist is expected to outgrow.

Who Is the Microbeau E.L.B For?
The E.L.B is particularly relevant for artists who want flexibility without an overly complicated control system. Its adjustable stroke, visible settings and two power options make it suitable for several professional contexts.
- PMU students who want to learn how different stroke settings influence machine response under qualified supervision;
- training academies looking for a consistent machine platform across multiple workstations;
- working artists who perform brows, eyeliner and lips and value one adaptable device;
- travelling professionals who benefit from a compact wireless setup and an RCA backup option;
- studios with a strong visual identity that want professional equipment in a coordinated or recognisable colour.
A beginner-friendly interface does not replace professional education. Permanent makeup machines should be used only by trained specialists in accordance with local requirements, hygiene protocols and manufacturer instructions.
How to Choose the Right E.L.B Colour
If two or more finishes appeal to you, begin with the environment in which the machine will be used. Matte Black is the easiest to coordinate with existing equipment. Blush Pink creates a softer visual accent. Cascade Blue introduces a fresh, recognisable colour, while Smoky Quartz adds warmth without becoming bright.
Academies can also assign different colours to instructors, training groups or workstations. Independent artists may prefer to match the finish with a logo, social media palette, trolley or travel case. Because the specifications are shared across all four versions, the decision can be made entirely according to visual preference and availability.
