Semi-permanent make-up, also known as micro-pigmentation, is a form of temporary cosmetic tattooing which allows you to have long-lasting eyeliner and lip colour as well as being able to shape and contour your eyebrows.
The procedure involves tiny particles of pigment being placed beneath the surface of the skin. This pigment will stay in the skin for a number of years, gradually breaking down and fading with time, although the longevity of the results will depend on your age, life style and skin type.
Powder Eyebrows
The “powder” technique mimics the effect you can achieve when using brow powder or pencil. It matches your natural hair colour and can be used to fill in sparse areas within the eyebrow.
Opposed to hair strokes, a powder filled technique, involves the application of thousands of tiny little dots of pigment, inserted into the skin, gradually building up a colour and a defined shape, which covers the brow area from the inner brow through to the tail in one colour. It adds depth, definition, and results in a more ‘made up’ look. When healed, you will enjoy a permanent, defined but soft powdered look.
Hair Stroke Eyebrows
The Hair Stroke technique is a very natural, life-like looking brow. This technique is used to mimic natural hairs. Tiny ‘hair stokes’ of pigment are implanted under the skin to create a natural looking brow. This is an ideal treatment for people who have experienced hair loss and don’t want a really obvious ‘made up’ brow. The colour will be custom blended to compliment your skin tone and hair colour. It is also perfect for people that already have quite good hair coverage, and for those who want to fill out gaps in their eyebrows where hair is missing, because the strokes can be made to mimic the natural hair present in colour, thickness and angle. In younger skin, it can even work very well for creating a complete brow where little to no hair exists.
Eye Liner Enhancement
A lash enhancement is one of the most popular eye treatments. This treatment gives a natural definition to your eyes, without the full eyeliner look. Your technician will create a subtle line that runs through the lash line whereas eyeliner goes onto the lid. This procedure is perfect for anyone who wants to have the look of fuller or thicker eyelashes without it looking over the top – perfect for enhancing your eyes.
Eyeliner Magic Liner
Magic Liner is a popular eyeliner technique, similar to a “winged” eyeliner. This involves extending the eyeliner to achieve the classic flick at the corners of your eyes. Depending on how you like your makeup it can be as subtle or as large as you like. Exciting colours can also be used with this technique, giving an almost eyeshadow- like effect on the lid.
Lipstick Look Lips
Saturates the lips with colour – in a natural or super-intense shade. Subtly defines your lip contour and infuses colour completely throughout your lips. This treatment is the perfect way to restore shape and fullness lost with age and transform thin or uneven lips. Great if you want to bring a little more colour to face and it takes the hassle out of reapplying lipstick during the day.
Ombre Lips
Discreet contouring that defines your lips, with blush shading distributed partially through the lip to give the illusion of a more full and plump lip. The technique is created by using gradient shades of the desirable lip colour, starting with a slightly darker effect at the edges, which blends into a natural fade towards the middle of the lips.
