What is permanent makeup?

Permanent makeup is a cosmetic treatment that permanently defines your brows, eyes, and lips. It applies permanent makeup pigments into the skin using various tattooing techniques. This treatment saves you time, and you will look perfect right after waking up.

You will look great and smudge free even during activities like swimming or exercising. Permanent makeup can subtly correct imperfections, enhance eye definition, and thicken your eyebrows.

What can you expect during your permanent makeup appointment?

Your treatment starts with drawing a template of your permanent makeup. Once the template is approved by you, we will apply a numbing cream to make the treatment more comfortable, and then we’ll start tattooing. The treatment takes between 1.5-2.5 hours.

Tanning will make your permanent makeup fade faster and look ashy.
