Permanent makeup, also known as cosmetic tattooing or micropigmentation, is a technique where pigment is implanted into the skin to enhance facial features such as brows, eyeliner, and lips. It gives the appearance of makeup that doesn’t wash off.

Results typically last 1–3 years, depending on skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare. Annual touch-ups are recommended to maintain the color and shape.

*Please note that final results cannot be guaranteed as each unique skin type will hold pigments differently and break down at different rates. We will re-evaluate how your skin has received the pigment at your Enhancement Session and make any changes.

**Retention depends on a number of factors including: the pigment color used (lighter colors fade faster), lifestyle (sun exposure, smoking, etc.), iron deficiency (your body absorbs iron-oxide as a supplement), and if any chemical peels or anti aging/brightening skin care products come into contact with treated areas.

- The discomfort is relative as pain thresholds vary from person to person, and everyone has a different level of sensitivity. A highly-effective, topical anesthetic cream and gel are used for numbing before and during your procedure. Every effort is made to ensure you remain comfortable for the duration of the procedure. Our clients are usually pleased to discover that it is no more painful than tweezing or threading! With any tattoo mild discomfort and slight swelling should be anticipated.

- Brow/Eyeliner/ Lip Pre-Care Instructions are designed and MUST BE STRICTLY FOLLOWED to limit bleeding and sensitivity during the service. Excessive bleeding and sensitivity during the procedure will dilute and expel the pigment color, leading to poor results.

* Having this service performed during your menstrual cycle may increase discomfort during your procedure.

* If you are a frequent smoker or "sun worshipper" anesthetics used during the treatment may not last as long and also can lead to poor retention and poor lasting results.

* If you have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, be aware that this may affect your sensitivity tolerance to the procedure.

Each appointment usually takes 2–3 hours, including consultation, design, numbing, and the tattooing process.

The treated area will go through light scabbing and flaking for 5–10 days. Color may appear darker at first, then lighten as the skin heals. Full healing takes about 4–6 weeks.

A perfecting session is usually scheduled 6–8 weeks after the initial procedure to refine color and shape.

And then after 2nd session

* For Brow: recommend every 1.5-3 years depending on each client

* For Lips: Lip color requires frequent touch-ups compared to other permanent makeup procedures due to the fact that the lips are very vascular and the body metabolizes the lip color at a rapid rate compared to other body parts which are not as vascularized. We recommend touch ups every 1-3 years

Avoid applying makeup directly on the treated area until it’s fully healed (around 10–14 days) to prevent infection and pigment disruption.

For eyebrows- Your artist will design a shape that complements your facial features, bone structure, and preferences. Pigments are custom-mixed to match your natural eyebrows as much as possible, look good with your skin tone and healed nicely with your undertone.

For lip blush- Color are chosen for clients’ desired results and skin tones but my overall aim is to give lips life and a natural tint without being too dramatic. Healing result will be soft blush color lip. We target colors that are very similar to your natural lips so it fades seamlessly long term.

For eyeliner- we do dark brown or black

For Eyebrow:

- 24 hours before appointment: NO alcohol, caffeine (soda, coffee, decaf coffee, tea)

- 48 hours before appointment: NO Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Niacin, Fish Oil, Vitamin E, Blood Thinner Medicine.

- 2 weeks before appointment: NO sunbathing, Waxing, Threading, Tinting, Alpha Hydroxy Acids Products, No beach vacation

- 12 months before appointment for someone has been on prescription Accutane in the past

**If you arrive for your appointment with a freshly tanned or a sunburned skin, you will need to reschedule and will forfeit your deposit. As your skin regenerates from a sunburn, it will take the pigment with it. Sun exposure can also cause excessive bleeding and sensitivity leading to pool healed results.

For Lip Blush:

- highly recommend you get a cold sore/blister prescription (Valtrex). Please take 24 hours before your procedure, the day of and 5 days after to prevent any outbreaks. If you are not able to get the prescription by your doctor, you can purchase Lysine (OTC) to used 2 weeks prior and 2 weeks after to your appointment

Cosmetic tattooing is a multiple step appointment process. YOUR BROWS WILL NOT BE COMPLETED AFTER JUST ONE SERVICE. For permanent makeup, at least two appointments are needed initially. Each of these appointments being 6 to 8 weeks apart. At the second visit, your Enhancement Session, we will assess the color retention and make any adjustments necessary. Everyone heals differently and at different rates. If your cosmetic tattoo does not heal perfectly the first time, it is very NORMAL because when you look at you skin, it might look smooth and even but the structures underneath are not the same therefore some spots will absorb the pigment better than other spots. that is why the second session is for. Do not worry! We can always go bolder and add more density at your next appointment.

***LIP NEUTRALIZATION might need 3-4 treatments

Machine brows are longer lasting and not as traumatic when compared to manual technique - microblading. Though currently very popular, microblading is no more than a trend and doesn't work for all, requires more touch ups, tends to fade unevenly, and can put integrity of the skin in danger due to possible scar tissue formation.

We did extensive research in the industry and chose to offer a safer and more effective way, so we no longer practice microblading, and do powder brows only. Because my priorities are your well-being, good condition of your skin and excellent healed results for months and years ahead.

With the sudden popularity and media attention to the term microblading, many are led to falsely believe microblading is not a tattoo process. THIS IS FALSE. Permanent cosmetics, "semi-permanent” makeup, micropigmentation, dermal implantation, microblading/microstroking, eyebrow embroidery, and long-time/long-lasting makeup, are all different names for the same procedure – cosmetic tattooing. Any time pigment is placed into the skin with any device, it is indeed a tattoo process.

The purpose of Cosmetic Tattooing is to enhance the natural features of a client. Cosmetic Tattooing is softer and more subtle – it is meant to be a natural-looking beauty enhancement. Body tattoos use ink while cosmetic tattoo procedures involve only iron-oxide or carbon based pigments. These pigments are designed to gently fade over time. Fading is desired as it allows the technician to make changes to color and shape over the years as client’s natural coloration and facial changes occur
