Frequently Asked Questions

Here are the most often asked questions

Why have Permanent Make-up?

Everyone wants to look the best they can, naturally. Think how convenient it would be to enjoy perfectly shaped eyebrows, wide-awake, pretty eyes and beautifully contoured lips, without the effort of time-consuming makeup rituals. All subtle, soft and perfectly in place with no smudging, no mess, no problem.

With permanent makeup you have the confidence of 
knowing you look the best you can look, right round the clock.

How long will Permanent Make-up last?

Permanent Make-up can last for several years but this is dependent on several factors including skin type, sun exposure and lifestyle.
I recommend a colour refresher treatment every twelve to twenty-four months to maintain perfect results.

What is the difference between permanent make up & semi-permanent make up?

This is an easy one too, absolutely nothing is the answer! Both permanent & semi-permanent makeup are the exact same thing. 
Both last between 12-24 months. Different websites, magazines etc use different names but essentially is the exact same thing & will last the exact same amount of time.

Am I suitable for permanent makeup?

Most people are suitable for some form of permanent makeup. At the studio, I will discuss with you precisely which treatments will suit you best. This is a one-to-one consultation and includes a discussion of your expectations and any features you wish to correct or balance. From this discussion, I will recommend the specific treatments I 
believe will achieve the effect you want and how it can be achieved.

 

is Permanent Makeup safe?

 Absolutely. All pigments are made of natural minerals that are    specifically selected for their safe, non-toxic and hypo allergenic  properties. They are trusted by technicians and cosmetic surgeons  throughout the world. Ophthalmologists actually recommend eye  procedures for women sensitive to conventional cosmetics.

 Does Permanent Make-up hurt?

 The procedure is performed with your comfort in mind. For this reason,  anesthetic gel is applied prior to treatment to minimize discomfort.

 What if I don’t like the result?

 I will take great care to discuss treatments that will enhance your face  or body the way you want it to. We will take time with the initial  consultation & prior to beginning any treatment, will pencil on the  required look while making any adjustments until you are 100%  satisfied before beginning the procedure.

 Pre Procedural Advice

 It is not advisable to tint perm or curl your eyelashes for one week  prior to treatment and two weeks after. It is also not advisable to tint  your eyebrows although you may shape them if you prefer to but this  service is provided at the time of your permanent eyebrows.
 Please bring glasses to wear after your eyeliner procedure as contact  lenses cannot be worn for 24 hours post procedure. If you already  suffer with cold sores you may be advised to use some oral or topical  Zovirax to minimize the possibility of the treatment triggering an  outbreak.
