  • Powder Brows is another form of cosmetic tattooing done with a machine and either a single or small configuration of needles to implant micro dots of pigment into the skin. These pixels are layered over a few passes to your desired saturation.

    Once healed it leaves the effect of a soft shadowing, much like filling in your brows with pencil or powder!

    Great for ALL skin types and ages, less traumatic to the skin as opposed to Microblading, can last longer, etc.

    Powder Brows is not to be confused with the old school tattooed brows. This is a very soft and natural enhancement. Perfect and gentle enough to work over scar tissue, fill gaps from over plucking, shaping/adding definition or color to your brows.

    Powder Brows can last anywhere from 1-3 years depending on many factors including lifestyle, hygiene, health, medication, skin type, and age.

    Results can not be guaranteed as everyone’s skin is different.

  • Microblading is a form of semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing. Done manually with a handheld tool and pigment to create fine hairlike strokes into the skin.

    Microblading is great if you are looking to add detail, fill sparse/over tweezed areas, or shape up your brow.

    Microblading is BEST suited for young, normal to dry skin types. If you do not fit this criteria you will likely be suggested to a better suited technique!

    Microblading can be applied on oily/combination skin, however the results may heal less crisp (thicker/blurred) over time with a shorter retention rate due to increase oil production. Additional or more frequent sessions may be needed to achieve desired results on oily skin. Due to this reason Powder Brow technique is HIGHLY recommended for oily skin types as well as aging skin due to the skins elasticity and upholding the integrity overtime.

    Microblading can last anywhere from 1-3 years depending on many factors including lifestyle, hygiene, health, medication, skin type, and age.

    Results can not be guaranteed as everyone’s skin is different.

  • Lip Blushing is also done with a machine that implants micro dots of pigment into the skin. Immediate results will look bright, bold, and lipstick like but will heal down to a tint/stain.

    Having a wash of color restored to your lips can make them appear fuller, defined, and youthful.

    Lip Blush is great for covering those pesky fordyce spots, scars, pale lips, defining borders, & correcting asymmetries- all while staying within the realm of your lips (Vermillion Border.)

    Swelling may occur but subsides in 1-2 days.

    Lips heal very fast in just 5-7 days, however it takes a few weeks for the color to “bloom” back through as your skin heals.

    Color is chosen by matching the inner portion of your water line for a seamless blend into the rest of your lips. Lip Stick effect is not obtainable, this is a natural enhancement.

    Please refer to the ‘Preparation & Aftercare” tab for additional information.

  • Cosmetic tattoos are a two-step process. After your initial appointment it is highly recommended to follow up (6-8 weeks) after. This is where we will build and reinforce the pigment into your skin increasing the longevity. This is also the time to asses how your tattoo has healed and make any adjustments necessary to restore color, and/or correct shape.

    It is very important to understand results are unique to each client and can not be guaranteed as everyone’s skin is different.

    Occasionally a third session may be needed. Each appointment is scheduled and charged individually.

    An annual Touch-Up is recommended every 1.5-2 years to keep the color fresh and defined.

  • Redness and slight swelling in the area is common after the procedure and will subside. Your brows may appear darker than anticipated - Don’t worry! This is completely normal and to be expected. As they heal the color will soften and fade. The majority of healing will take place during the first 14 days. Total healing time is generally 4 weeks.
