What Is Semi Permanent Make Up?
You will probably have mostly heard of “Microblading” but there are different forms/styles of Permanent Makeup using different methods to implant the pigment into the skin.
Microblading: Manually using a super fine blade to create channels in the skin which look like hairstrokes. This technique creates a very natural look but is limited to what can be achieved and doesn’t suit all skin types.
Machine method: (brows, lips& areola) Using an electronically powered machine and a needle, similar to a regular tattoo (but less aggressive & using semi permanent pigment not implanted as deep as tattoo ink).
My preferred method is using the machine as I can achieve different effects such as shading, ombré and super natural hairstrokes.
I would advise booking a consultation with me to find out more and I can make recommendations to suit your skin & hair type and lifestyle.
The benefits of semi-permanent makeup include saving time and money with not needing to buy brow makeup on a regular basis and drawing on your brows daily.
We all know the struggle to get those perfect symmetrical brows right?!
This treatment is perfect for a low maintenance morning routine and gives you one less thing to worry about particularly for clients with poor vision or shaky hands.
Lasting from 1-5 years before they start to fade, a colour boost session is recommended every 1-3 years to keep them looking fresh.
