Permanent make up is truly an art, not just a process. Your goal should be to find a permanent make up artist, not just a technician. Your results will be only as good as the artist you choose and only as safe as the technicians’ training and experience. You want to find someone who has a good balance with artistic ability as well as hand on experience.
You want natural soft cosmetics that enhance your face without being too bold or over done. Colour knowledge is one of the most important factors to a quality application of Permanent Cosmetics. Just look at all the conventional cosmetics on the market and see how important colour is. You want an artist who understands skin tones and colours that will enhance your face and look classic not trendy since it is permanent. One can always wear conventional make up in addition to compliment permanent make up to achieve a more high fashion look without looking inappropriate for your age as you mature.
Techniques vary for different results so make sure you ask if the artist is capable of giving you the look you want. You want an artist who can do corrections, alterations and camouflage. Talent and Experience makes all the difference, so look for someone who will give you soft, natural results. By implementing the 10 point criteria check listed above in your search for the right Permanent Cosmetic Technician, you are working to ensure that your INVESTMENT IN YOU will bear long lasting, beautiful results.
If you would like a complimentary consultation, please do not hesitate to contact us.

You have to feel comfortable with the technician you choose. Good communication between you and the technician is of utmost importance.
