The Art of Permanent Makeup
Permanent makeup, sometimes called semi-permanent make up or micropigmentation. They are all forms of cosmetic tattooing but there is a major difference between this treatment and traditional tattoo.
Permanent make up treatments are performed using a digital machine that implants hypoallergenic pharmaceutical grade pigments into the top layer of the skin.
A traditional tattoo goes much deeper and use different pigments – tattoo ink is unsuitable for the sensitive skin of the facial features.
Permanent make up pigments are made from mineral and organic material and are designed to fade over time, lasting between 12-18 months after which you can top up your permanent make up with a maintenance treatment called colour boost to refresh colour, shape and definition.
A classic timeless brow shape will frame your face and restore your natural beauty.
Eyebrows
Powder Ombre eyebrows (micro shading), is a megapixel technique recommended for people with oily skin and those who want to achieve a powder eyebrow makeup effect. The powder method involves the application of thousands of tiny little dots of pigment, inserted into the skin, gradually building up color and a defined shape. The result lasts 1-3 years.
Eyeliner
A classic permanent eyeliner is recommended for clients who wear pencil or liquid eyeliner daily and would like to save time on applying it. One of the greatest advantages of permanent eyeliner is that it will never run and always have a beautiful shape that is professionally drawn.
Lips
Lip tattooing can enhance the beauty of natural lip color, correct asymmetry, and add fullness and definition. With the help of this treatment, it is possible to correct the fading color of lips that is always associated with aging. Results are customized for every client, therefore, you can be sure to achieve the desired effect.
