Facts About the Permanent Make-Up Procedure
Is Permanent Make-Up Safe?
Very few people have ever had any allergic reactions to pure softap micro pigments that are made in the USA. If you wear conventional cosmetics, you will have nothing to worry about. If you have problems with make-up, we can do a patch test for allergies prior to scheduling a procedure. All supplies are single use only and disposable. I do not use any pigments produced outside of the USA or Europe to ensure quality and safety. I refuse to take short cuts.
Is the Permanent Make-Up Procedure Comfortable?
A very effective topical anesthetic is applied to the area of the skin being pigmented before and during your procedure. Your complete comfort is foremost and always ensured.
Is Permanent Make-Up Really Permanent?
Technically, permanent cosmetic procedures are considered permanent because the color is implanted into the dermal layer. However, natural fading can occur and require touch ups in 2 to 5 years. The sun is the greatest villain to colors fading so always use an SPF sun block of at least 20 or wear sunglasses.
Tip: For eyebrows, you can simply use an SPF sunblock tube for lips and just wipe over brows before sun exposure – quick and easy to ensure lasting results!
What is Healing Like After the Permanent Make-Up Procedure is Completed?
There will be mild swelling on the area you have pigmented for 24 to 36 hours. The color will be much darker and thicker for 4-5 days. You will see a light flaking of color revealing the permanent color which is a softer tone of the initially applied color. Once the skin cells grow over top and diffuse the color you will have a very soft and natural color.
Liberate Yourself
I believe every woman has innate beauty that is as unique as she is.
I believe that make-up is one of the most alluring ways you can express yourself.
Everyone’s idea of beauty is individual and should never be dictated by current fads. Your face is the first thing others see when connecting with you. Whether you desire all-natural beauty, or full-on glamour, your style is your signature beauty.
Lasting Color Permanent Make-Up is for women who want to liberate themselves from time-consuming and tedious daily make-up application but still want to feel as beautiful on the outside as they do on the inside. You may desire permanent eyebrow color or fresh new shape, or to have thicker and darker lashes year-round, free from mascara or eyelash extensions. You may need correction of previous micro-bladed brows or permanent eyebrow color to unveil a fresh canvas on which a more desirable shape and color can be applied later.
