So you are considering permanent eyeliner so that you can wake up with beautifully enhanced eyes everyday without the hassle of makeup? Well you've come to the right place. On this page you will find a wealth of information to answer all of your questions!
All permanent makeup procedures require a MINIMUM of 2 sessions. Some skin types will require a third touchup which will not be included in the cost.
The eyelid is an EXTREMELY sensitive area and bruising, swelling and redness is perfectly normal for a few days following the procedure. In some cases with large, bold eyeliner extreme swelling for 3-4 days may be present.
Eyeliner Tattoo Techniques
Lash Line Enhancement
This technique provides the most natural eyeliner look. The tattoo sits solely inside the lash line creating a darker, denser lash line. This look will be virtually undetectable for those worried about looking "too made up" as it does not go above the lash line at all.
Lash line enhancement is the best option for those with heavily hooded or creased lids.
Classic Eyeliner
Classic eyeliner is a more bold form of eyeliner. It will replicate the look of liquid liner with crisp, clean edges and a fully saturated, dark look. Classic liner can be winged or not depending on personal preference.
One thing to note about winged liner is that not everyone is a candidate. Those with low creases or a small amount of lid space will not be able to have the wing done. Additionally, the wing cannot be done a dramatic as topical makeup.
Redness, swelling and bruising are normal for this type of eyeliner and may persist for a few days following the procedure.
Smokey Eyeliner
Smokey eyeliner is a technique that creates a softer, smokey line as opposed to a crisp, stark line. It will blur and soften the edges. Colors such as brown may be used to provide a gradient effect.
This technique can be done on any classic eyeliner shape.

Most permanent makeup procedures need at least two sessions, and the second 'perfecting' session is included in the price. Skin type, medications, health conditions, and aftercare impact how many sessions may be required.
If you’re not prepared to follow the restrictions or aftercare, you're not ready to commit to booking yet.
Remember, permanent makeup is an art, not a science. Small imperfections and slight asymmetry are normal; no one’s eyelids or brows are perfectly identical.
Strictly following the restrictions below is essential to achieve ideal results. If you have certain health conditions or medications, you may need to delay the procedure, obtain a doctor’s approval (I’ll need a letter), or possibly not proceed at all

Post Procedure Restrictions
If you fail to follow these guidelines you may have very poor results or healing complications. Its absolutely vital you comply with these restrictions.
-
2 weeks: Avoid Sun Exposure: Stay out of direct sunlight and avoid tanning beds for at least two weeks. Sun exposure can cause premature fading and affect the healing process.
-
7-10 days:Refrain from Working Out: Avoid any activities that induce heavy sweating (like intense exercise) for at least 7-10 days. Sweat can interfere with pigment retention and prolong healing.
-
7-10 days: Keep the Area Dry: Avoid getting the treated area wet for at least 7-10 days. Be cautious while washing your face and avoid swimming, saunas, or steam rooms. ONLY get wet when cleaning according to aftercare instructions.
-
7-14 days: No Makeup on the Treated Area: Do not apply makeup over the tattooed area until it’s fully healed. This can introduce bacteria, leading to infection or irritation.
-
Until healed: Avoid Touching or Picking: Don’t touch, pick, or scratch at scabs or flaking skin. Allow the skin to heal naturally to prevent scarring and pigment loss.
-
Until Healed: Avoid Certain Skin Products: Refrain from using skincare products with active ingredients, like retin-anti-aging products, glycolic acid, and alpha hydroxy acids, around the treated area until healed, as these can fade the pigment.
-
Follow Aftercare Instructions: Follow any additional aftercare instructions provided by your artist, such as applying a recommended ointment if needed.
-
Monitor for Signs of Infection: If you notice unusual redness, swelling, or pus, contact your artist or a medical professional for guidance.
