What to Expect:

  • A complimentary, in-person consultation is required prior to this treatment to determine your suitability for permanent makeup. Procedures may not be suitable for everyone.
  • Powder Brows - This technique is a good option for all skin types and creates a soft pixelated look mimicking the appearance of a soft powder filled brow. Permanent brows can be a two step process (Initial appointment and touch up), depending on how an individual’s skin accepts pigment. If a touch up appointment is needed, it can be done after 6 weeks.
  • Lip Blushing - is a form of semi permanent tattooing that brightens, enhances, or restores the pigment that has begun to disappear over the years. It can improve the shape and give the appearance of a fuller, plumper lip without the use of lipstick. The lip color is customized to each client based on her natural lip color, undertone, and skin color. Lip blushing can be soft or bold and typically lasts 1-3 years. If a touch up appointment is needed, it can be done after 6 weeks.
