Natural, Permanent Makeup or Micro Blading
Are those eyebrows real? Sometimes it can be difficult to tell if someone’s eyebrows, full lash lines, and luscious lip color are natural, or drawn on. Tattooing with permanent makeup, or a micro blading technique has given many people a wonderful solution to those gaps of missing hairs while enhancing their natural color that seems to be disappearing. Permanent Makeup gives you a fresher appearance that doesn’t wipe away; allowing you that extra time & money freedom you need.
Can you imagine not having to spend large amounts of time applying your makeup, and being so confident in how you look throughout your day that you don’t need mirrors?
This is exactly why I searched out Permanent Makeup over 25 years ago. I wanted to enhance my appearance with makeup that lasted longer than the normal day to day powders, and pencils.
Choosing to have Permanent Makeup was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! This gave me the freedom, and confidence of knowing my makeup looked as vibrant, and fresh 10 hours later; as it did when I first put it on that morning!
Permanent Makeup has also been referred to as Permanent Cosmetics, Micro pigmentation, Cosmetic Tattooing, and Micro Blading. The term Permanent Makeup simply means that a skilled technician creates a change in a persons physical appearance by using a tattoo needle to place pigment into the dermis layer of the skin, and the pigment cannot be washed away with using soap and water. This technique has changed lives by enhancing one’s appearance while minimizing, and for many, eliminating the daily application of conventional makeup.
Both men and women experience many changes throughout the different stages of their lives. A woman in her 20’s and 30’s may want to add a little more thickness, or dimension to her brows, while women in their 40’s on up are wanting more of a lift to their arch that is beginning to collapse and even disappear, along with bringing back their missing tails.
It has been the desire of women for centuries to keep their makeup lasting longer without smearing and reapplying throughout the day. It is comforting to know that as we go through these transitional years we can modify with refresher appointments to what our current needs are. This also allows us to make the adjustments needed according to what is happening with our skin due to medication, illnesses, stress and other factors.
How does permanent makeup help you to have a more youthful appearance? With the skilled eye of your technician we can replace missing hairs from the brows, add density to a thinning eyelash line, and bring back your lips that have faded away. These are very specific techniques that will help you to have a more youthful appearance by literally erasing years.
Strategically choosing colors that work along with your own natural pigment is vital to a successful outcome. Properly placed eyeliner makes your lashes look fuller, and your eyes appear brighter. While simulated hair strokes in the brow line help frame and finish the eyes; and finally bringing back that missing lip line, and color to your lips all play a significant role in enhancing your overall appearance.
Women love the idea of not having to draw their brows on, and worrying about getting them even. Are you tired of penciling in brows which may, or may not look good when you are done in front of the mirror? Brows drawn incorrectly can add years to an individual giving the illusion that the brow bone is sagging. While a brow with an intricate, and precise manner canl lift, and erase years from your appearance.
Since the ancient times women have been applying makeup to accentuate their eyes. Wanting eyeliner that won’t run, smear, or clump in the corners causing them to continually look in the mirror throughout their day. When eyeliner is placed properly it helps to lift the eyelids, and bring vibrancy back to your natural eye color. It helps lashes to appear thicker & fuller. Permanent eyeliner can also prevent wrinkles because you’re not fussing, and pulling at the skin around the eyes. The makeup stays in place, allowing the eyeliner to appear freshly applied without smears.
You can finally have Color & definition to those pale lips! Women often comment on how their lips are the same color as their face, and they feel like it ages them. Another complaint is when they use lip sticks they bleed and look feathered instead of having a crisp lip line. Lips go through a lot of movement in a day, and when we are talking, we want to capture our audience with smooth looking lips that have a natural brightness to them.

These artisan techniques also known as permanent cosmetics, micro-pigmentation, and cosmetic tattooing simply mean the process of placing pigment just beneath the epidermis of the skin.
It has been a wonderful adventure gathering the information together to implement this art form while traveling both the USA and Canada tp explore the different views on the medical, and artistic approaches to applying permanent cosmetics and skin care treatments for the past 25 years. This has allowed me the opportunity to train with many amazing mentors from around the world. I prefer using advanced digital technology, and natural colored pigments with an extensive safety record. First applying a topical anesthetic for comfort, while utilizing the highest sanitation, and sterilization standards available. The undesirable effects of aging, surgeries, blue ray from consistent use of computers, iPads, cellular phones, and sun exposure may alter the pigment’s appearance over time. A refresher visit will be helpful in maintaining a more youthful, and fresher appearance.
After performing thousands of procedures on many types of skin canvas’s, we’ve come to realization that no mater which technique is used when makeup is applied under the skin, factors may prohibit the longevity of the results.
Skin is a natural canvas, and no one is capable of determining exact outcomes. This is why it is referred to as an ART. It is important for you to do you research when seeking out a permanent makeup professional. Different skin types, and skin conditions, as well as your maintenance also play a role in the longevity of your procedure.
