Permanent makeup, also known as micropigmentation or cosmetic tattooing, involves the application of pigments into the upper layers of the skin to enhance and define facial features. This technique is commonly used for eyebrows, lips and eyeliner, providing a long-lasting, natural look that reduces the need for daily makeup application.

Each technique has its unique benefits and can be tailored to suit different preferences and skin types. Here is a definition of the eyebrow treatments we offer as semi-permanent makeup: • Microblading: Best for creating hair-like strokes and a natural look. Not suitable for oily or mature skin. • Powder Brows: Ideal for a soft, filled-in makeup effect. • Nano Brows: Offers precise, hair-like strokes for a very natural look. Suitable for all skin types • Combo Brows: Combines hair like-strokes with shading (powder brows). With each of them, awesome results can be achieved. A consultation with our expert can help determine the best option for you.

The duration varies from person to person. It depends on skin type, lifestyle, touch up, and other factors. On average: • Microblading: 1.5-2 years • Powder Brows: 2-3 years • Nano Brows: 2-3 years • Lip Blushing/Neutralization: 1.5-2 years

The duration of each procedure varies but typically: • Microblading: 2-3 hours • Powder Brows: 2-3 hours • Nano Brows: 3.5-4 hours • Combo Brows: 3-3.5 hours • Lip Blushing/Neutralization: 3.5-4 hours

Most procedures require two sessions to get the desired effect: 1. The initial application. 2. A follow-up session 4-6 weeks later for eyebrows and 6-8 weeks for lips to perfect the results. Lip neutralization would require 3-4 sessions if the lips had a deep hyperpigmentation. It is recommended to have an annual touch up session to refresh your eyebrows or lips.

The healing process generally involves: • Day 1-4: Pigment colour appears intense. • Day 5-10: Treated skin scabs slightly. • Day 11-15: Treated area goes into the "ghosting period". The pigment appears very light. Don't panic! ❤️ • Day 16: Pigment starts resurfacing in the skin. • For eyebrows - Week 4-6: Eyebrows fully healed with the final colour. • For lips - Week 6-8: Lips fully healed. Proper aftercare, including avoiding makeup, steam, sun exposure on the treated area, is essential during the healing process. Follow your artist's instructions.

The sensation varies by individual, but most of our clients report minimal or tolerable discomfort. Many fall asleep during the procedure. A high-quality topical numbing cream is applied during the procedure, along with stretching techniques to ensure you have a great experience with us.

Yes, some people can't get permanent makeup: • Pregnancy or breastfeeding. We'll be happy to work with you after this beautiful period. • Skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, or dermatitis in the treatment area. • History of keloids or hypertrophic scarring. • Recent cosmetic procedures in the area, such as Botox or fillers (4 weeks). • Medical conditions or medications that affect healing (e.g. blood thinners, pacemakers). A consultation with our expert will help determine if you’re a suitable candidate and address any specific concerns.

Proper pre-care ensures the best results for your semi-permanent makeup procedure: • Avoid alcohol, caffeine, and blood-thinning medications (e.g. aspirin) for 24 hours before your appointment. • Refrain from using Retin-A, glycolic acid, or other exfoliating products in the treatment area for at least two weeks prior. • Avoid tanning or excessive sun exposure for two weeks before the procedure. • Do not wax, thread, or tint your eyebrows for at least three days before your appointment. • Come to your appointment with a clean face, free of makeup and skincare products. • If you are getting your lips done and you are prone to cold sores, please check with your physician or pharmacist to get a viral medication for a few days before, during and after your treatment.

Following these aftercare instructions will help ensure optimal healing and results: • Keep the treated area clean and avoid excessive moisture (long showers, steam, sweat, and makeup). • Apply the provided aftercare ointment as directed to keep the area moisturized. • Do not pick, scratch, or peel any scabs or flaking skin. • Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, saunas, swimming pools, and hot tubs for at least two weeks. • Refrain from using skincare products containing Retin-A, glycolic acid, or other exfoliants on the treated area for at least four weeks. • Sleep on your back to avoid putting pressure on the treated area.
