Permanent Makeup, also known as permanent cosmetics, micro-pigmentation, cosmetic tattooing and dermal pigmentation, is the professional practice and art of implanting micro-insertions of color (pigment) into the dermal layer of the skin for the purpose of cosmetic enhancement. Enjoy the benefits permanent makeup has offered thousands of women. Permanent makeup can diminish your need for makeup, define features, fill in brows that are sparse, enhance your lips, frame your eyes, camouflage scars and much more. Permanent Makeup can be subtle or dramatic depending on your needs and desires. The best permanent makeup looks so natural no one knows you have it.

Perfectly Designed Eyebrows

Eyebrows are the most important feature on your face. No one knows this best than the person who does not have them. The difference a beautiful brow can make in framing your face and changing your appearance is amazing. Permanent eyebrows can replace spending as much as 20 minutes a day drawing on your brows or having them melt off at the beach or pool. Permanent eyebrows is the answer for alopecia, sparse brows that have been over tweezed or waxed, post menopausal loss of eyebrow hair or hair that is too fine or light. There are several methods available to create the perfect brow including hair strokes, fill in method, light shading or a combination of all. The technique used will depend on the desired end result. The goal is proper balance and symmetry. The brows are designed to fit your facial shape and bone structure with color that complements your skin and eyes. Contrary to what you may see on many other permanent makeup web sites, it is our belief at Pretty Woman that less is more when it comes to permanent eyebrows; the lighter, softer, and more natural the permanent brow the better.

Eyeliner/lash Enhancement

At Pretty Woman we believe that any woman of any age can use eyeliner or lash enhancement to enhance their eyes. Many women come in for permanent eyeliner because they feel they look washed out in the morning and have no definition around the eyes anymore. For some, it’s as simple as not being able to put eyeliner on! For the most subtle change, a lash enhancement will add color just in between the eyelash hairs to add fullness and definition to the eyelashes. For many women this is all they want and need. It gives them just enough punch. It opens the eye and gives a very subtle, defined look. Women who wear eyeliner every day will want more of a liner which is added just above the lash line. No more smearing, smudging, or melting. You can always start off with a lash enhancement and add more liner at a later date. The conservative approach is always best.

Defined Lip Line/Gorgeous Full Lip Shading

Whether lip liner or full lip color, your lips will lose the definition, color and full appearance you used to have when you were a child or teenager. Lip liner will redefine the shape of your lips and add fullness to an otherwise disappearing lip line. If you have thin lips, a washed out lip line, an uneven lip line, scars in your lip line, a lip line that lacks definition, wear lip liner all the time, or have lipstick that bleeds out of your lip line, then lip liner is for you. Full lip color, which includes the lip line, is for those who have pale lips. Apply some lip gloss or lip balm and voila! You have lip color in your lips. Many different colors are available from natural to bold, beautiful and vibrant.

Please note:  Permanent makeup is done in a number of steps. The first few days are accompanied by a darker tone to the applied area and it is therefore recommended that appointments be made with this in mind. If you have a special occasion please make the proper arrangements time wise.  The darker pigmentation will usually disappear after five days and a follow up and finalization appointment can be made in three weeks time.  It is recommended that after permanent makeup, one should refrain from the beach and pool for a week.  Additionally, it is advised not to peel the dried skin, and to let it naturally progress.  To assist in this process we provide Vitamin E ointment, which should be applied at least 4 times a day.
