Will I really look like myself...only better?

Absolutely! Permanent makeup helps give back what time has taken away and save you precious time you normally spend "putting on your face". You can save countless hours in a single year that were formerly spent struggling to draw eyebrows evenly or eyeliner half-way straight...that's a lot of extra time! Plus, imagine the money you'll save not buying expensive cosmetics that rub off, smear, smudge and disappear during the day.

Permanent makeup is not necessarily intended to replace cosmetics completely. Because the color is placed "in" your skin and not "on" your skin, a more natural, softer look results. When your're ready to kick up your heels and go out for a night-on-the-town or want a different look you can add as much makeup as you wish.

What is permanent makeup?

Permanent makeup is the art and science of implanting color into your skin. It is putting the right color in the right place so you can look better naturally. Specialized instruments allow your Permanent Cosmetic Professional to place color into the layer of skin known as the dermis. Because the outer most layer of skin, the epidermis, is always shedding and renewing itself, you are looking at the color through a thin veil of skin. When a procedure is completed, the color will appear darker than the final result. This is because the color is in BOTH the epidermis and the dermis. The color in the top layer will flake off during the healing process lightening the overall effect.

How long will it take to recover?

You'll look like you've had a good cry for several hours following eyeliner. It is advised to apply ice for 10 minutes at a time during these first few hours. Eyebrow procedures have the least swelling. Lip color often involves temporary swelling. You must let your professional know if you have a history of fever blisters so medication can be prescribed.

How long will my makeup last?

Permanent cosmetics last a long time, but not forever. As you become accustomed to your new makeup it's not uncommon to want more. You will want to freshen up your new makeup every couple of years. The darker the color the longer it will stay unchanged in your skin. Natural, delicate colors are often times more vulnerable to the effects of the sun, swimming and breakdown by the body's natural response.

I'm afraid of pain...does it hurt?

Topical anesthetics have been developed especially for permanent makeup procedures. These creams and gels are applied to the desired area before and during the procedure to assure you of the most comfortable experience possible. Some people describe the sensation as a "tingling" feeling. However most people still experience some discomfort, especially for lip color procedures. Rarely is anything stronger than a Tylenol necessary for the discomfort.

Is this a smart investment?

Your investment in permanent makeup saves you time and money in the long run. Touch ups are required every couple of years to keep your makeup looking fresh. Your investment in permanent makeup can completely eliminate the daily time consuming ritual of applying your makeup. And you'll save the embarrassment of smeared, smudged eyeliner and brows so common with mascara and brow pencils or powders.
