Permanent Cosmetic Makeup is the process of applying micro insertions of natural pigments to the dermal layer of the skin, also known as micropigmentation. The resultant quality depends upon both the skill of the practitioner and the specific technique employed. When applied properly, the procedure is completely safe and with minimal discomfort. A range of colors and application methods are available to the client. A bold dramatic look can be created, or a natural look that never goes out of style can be achieved.

• Allows individuals to always look their best, even with busy lifestyles
• Does not smear, so it is ideal for persons with oily skin
• People who wear contacts also enjoy permanent makeup because it does not flake
• Those suffering from allergic reactions choose it because it replaces cosmetic products they cannot tolerate

• Areola (e.g., after reconstructive surgery)
• Brows (see example of hair-like stroke technique in the before & after photos below)
• Eyeliner (Upper and/or Lower)
• Lip Liner (requires anti-viral medication)
• Lipstick (requires anti-viral medication)
• Various Areas Needing Camouflage from Scarring or Hypo-pigmentation

Selection of a permanent makeup artist is like choosing a plastic surgeon. The procedure is typically elective and the results are directly visible for the world to see. As in selecting a physician, be assured of the credentials and experience of your permanent makeup practitioner.

Not all permanent makeup artists have been certified. In fact, very often a student will enroll in a weekend training seminar and begin practicing her newly acquired skills the following week. Consequently, be sure to inquire about the level of training, certification, and years of experience.
