Ready to Upgrade Your Eye Game?

Permanent Eye Liner is a Beauty Gamechanger.

Permanent eyeliner from our skilled makeup artists can instantly elevate your daily look and transform your routine. It offers a host of confidence-boosting benefits, making it an ideal solution for anyone with shaky hands, vision challenges, or dexterity issues that make perfecting a crisp cat-eye with traditional makeup nearly impossible.

Permanent liner is also perfect for active individuals who don’t want to worry about smudging, running, or disappearing makeup throughout the day. Techniques like lash line enhancements create the illusion of bigger, more wide-awake eyes by subtly defining and darkening the lash lines.

Waking up with gorgeous lined eyes already in place provides an emotional boost and instant daily confidence influx. You can streamline your morning routine while simultaneously enjoying that #wokeuplikethis feeling! Permanent eyeliner is a mini self-care ritual with a major impact.

The Lash Enhancement

If you’re all about that subtly sultry, your-lashes-but-better! A permanent lash enhancement could be exactly what you’re looking for. This specialized technique involves depositing ultra-fine lines of semi-permanent pigment just along the roots of your upper and/or lower lash lines.

The result? Lashes that appear darker, thicker and automatically more wide-awake without any harsh lines or bold definition. It’s the perfect low-key way to enhance your natural lashes and cut down on daily lash-tinting, curling or mascara applications.

Your lash enhancement can be customized to your exact pigment preference too – from a soft brown tint to inky dramatic noir. Many clients love this treatment for its ability to make you look effortlessly put-together while still rocking an understated, no-makeup makeup vibe.

The Professional Liner

If you’re craving a softer, more diffused eyebrow look, powder or ombre brows might be your perfect match. This technique creates a beautifully shaded appearance, like wearing a sheer veil of eyebrow powder. It’s excellent for those with oily skin, as the pigment resists smudging and fading, and for camouflaging old eyebrow tattoos or achieving a subtle, natural enhancement.

Our skilled artists create a seamless gradient effect using a special shading method, offering an extensive array of color options to complement every skin tone and style preference. Whether you prefer delicate, natural shades or crave a bolder, more dramatic look, we’ll help you find your ideal match.

Powder / Ombre brows are incredibly long-lasting, with results remaining stunning for 2-3 years before gradually fading. This low-maintenance approach allows you to enjoy flawless, effortlessly polished eyebrows for years without constant touch-ups or the risk of smudging.

From First Strokes to Finished Look

The Step-by-Step Journey to Permanent Eyeliner Perfection

Your permanent eyeliner journey begins with an in-depth consultation to map out the perfect design for your lifestyle and facial features. Your artist will guide you through selecting the ideal pigment colors, thickness levels, and style, whether you desire a subtle lash enhancement or bold cat-eye wings.

After finalizing your design, a gentle numbing cream is applied for a comfortable experience. Using a precise manual tool, your artist will meticulously implant the pigment stroke-by-stroke along the lash line to achieve your desired shape and density. The process takes around 2 hours, depending on the intricacy, with no downtime required afterward.

A touch-up visit 4-6 weeks later is recommended to perfect the liner’s appearance, followed by minimal yearly touch-ups as the semi-permanent pigment can gradually fade over time. With proper care, permanent eyeliner can last 1-3 years before a re-do is required. Say goodbye to daily makeup struggles and smudged wings, and wake up gorgeous every morning with your favorite eye look already locked in place!

Precare

Prepping for Permanent Eyeliner: Follow these Tips

Avoid

Alcohol, caffeine, and smoking for 48-72 hours prior to minimize any bleeding or bruising, which can impact your results.

Blood-thinning supplements like vitamin E, ginkgo, fish oils, and anti-inflammatory meds 1 week before. They increase risk of excessive bruising and swelling. If in doubt, just ask!

Facial treatments like chemical peels or laser 2 weeks pre & post treatment out to avoid extra sensitivity.

Retinoids, glycolic acids, and harsh exfoliants around the eye area 5-7 days prior as they can cause excessive dryness and irritation.

Gently exfoliate 1-2 days beforehand to remove any dryness or flakiness for a smooth canvas and better pigment adhesion.

Stay hydrated and use a gentle, non-irritating eye cream or moisturizer in the days leading up. Proper prep helps the skin heal faster.

Show up with a fresh, clean face – no makeup, please! You’ll want those lids bare to avoid transferring product and clogging pores.

Activities that could potentially irritate or inflame the delicate eye area for 24-48 hours prior. This prevents excessive redness and swelling.

Give your artist a full rundown of any eye conditions, meds, or previous cosmetic tattoos, so they can adjust accordingly for best results.

If you’re a flincher, ask about taking an oral anti-anxiety med to help you stay perfectly still (even tiny movements can throw off symmetry).

Wear your glasses instead of contacts to prevent any unnecessary eye rubbing, you’ll want to avoid touching the area.

The area may appear more intense at first before that perfect liner look sets in after 1-2 weeks, it’s normal for results to be dimmer or darker initially.

Growth Serums

If you use or have ever used Latisse or other growth serums please let us know immediately. This can have a major negative impact on your eyeliner and could be dangerous.

Aftercare: Permanent Eyeliner

Thin and natural, lash enhancement

  • Swelling & itching: Don’t be alarmed if your eyes feel a bit swollen and tender for a few days – it’s totally normal and will go away quickly. Itching is also common, but resist the urge to scratch! Instead, try using an ice pack protected with a wet paper towel barrier for some soothing relief. Just remember, no more than 10 minutes of icing at a time, and it’s most effective within the first 24 hours.
  • Elevate head: To help reduce any lingering swelling, try sleeping with your head slightly elevated. You might notice the most swelling the morning after your procedure, but don’t worry – it’s all part of the healing process!
  • Pigment: Don’t be surprised if you wake up to find some residual pigment on your pillowcase – it’s a small price to pay for fabulous eyeliner!
  • Care: If you find your eyes stuck together in the morning, gently separate them using a wet Q-tip. Remember, no rubbing, peeling, or picking allowed!
  • Ointment: For the first 4 days, keep the area clean and only use the aftercare provided. And make sure to use a fresh Q-tip for each application – no double-dipping!
  • Avoid Drying out: It’s crucial to keep your eyeliner from drying out during the first 72 hours, so stay on top of that aftercare routine.
  • Avoid Make up: For the first 72 hours, give your eyes a break and skip the makeup to allow for optimal healing.
  •  Healing: To help your eyes heal properly, avoid sun exposure, pools, hot tubs, and any creams around the eye area.
  • Extra precautions: While eyes typically heal very well, there’s a slight chance of developing a secondary infection like conjunctivitis. If the ointment is giving you trouble, skip it and rinse your eyes with a buffered eyewash instead. If symptoms persist, don’t hesitate to seek medical attention and ask for an antibiotic steroid eye drop.
  • Sensitive: Keep in mind that your eyes are sensitive to pet dander, gardening, dust, and dirty hands, so be extra careful during the healing process.
  • Protection: Sunglasses are your new best friend – not only do they look chic, but they also provide wonderful protection from the sun’s rays.
  • Mascara: To keep your lashes looking their best, treat yourself to a new tube of mascara after each procedure.

Eyeliner Tattoo Frequently Asked Medical Questions

What are the top 5 medical reasons that could prevent me from getting cosmetic eyeliner tattooing?

Ready to wake up with perfectly defined eyes every morning? Cosmetic eyeliner tattooing can be a real game-changer for those who want to streamline their beauty routine and say goodbye to smudged liner forever.

However, before you book that appointment, there are a few medical situations that might temporarily put your eyeliner tattoo plans on hold. Remember, everyone’s situation is different, and this list isn’t exhaustive. To ensure your safety and achieve the eyeliner look of your dreams, it’s always best to have an open and honest conversation with both your doctor and your chosen Semi permanent Eyeliner tattoo artist.

1. Eye infections or inflammations

If you’re currently dealing with an eye infection, like conjunctivitis or a stye, or have any inflammation in or around your eyes, it’s best to wait until you’re completely healed before getting an eyeliner tattoo. Your eye health should always come first!

Attention all moms-to-be and breastfeeding beauties! While you might be eager to rock a permanent cat-eye, it’s recommended to wait until after your little one has arrived and you’ve finished nursing to ensure the safety of both you and your baby.

It’s rare, but some people can have allergic reactions to the ingredients used in tattoo ink or topical numbing creams. If you have sensitive skin or a history of allergies, make sure to do a patch test before committing to a cosmetic eyeliner tattoo.

Certain eye conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, or dry eye syndrome: If you have any pre-existing eye conditions, or eye surgery, it’s crucial to consult with your ophthalmologist before getting an eyeliner tattoo. They can help determine if the procedure is safe for you and your unique eye health situation. Taking certain medications like blood thinners or isotretinoin for acne: Some medications can interfere with the tattooing process and healing. If you’re taking blood thinners, isotretinoin (commonly known as Accutane), or any other medications, be sure to disclose this information to your cosmetic tattoo artist beforehand.

Those with very thin skin or visible veins around the eye area may not be ideal candidates. The delicate nature of the skin increases risk of pigment migration and poor ink retention over time. An in-person evaluation with your artist is a must to assess suitability and potential risks.
