Now you can make a lasting difference in your 
appearance simply and safely.

Our Technique

Our permanent cosmetics technique is different from others because we use a manual tool called a softap. 
Yes, there are still needles, but because we are not using a machine it is much less painful. In addition to the 
manual technique we also use topical numbing agents to help with your comfort level. The SOFTAP needles 
that we use also come with the best color pigmants in the industry. These colors range from light and 
natural to much darker and deeper tones. All of these pigments give the most natural results that 
you can achieve with permanent cosmetics.  
  

What are Permanent Cosmetics?

Also called permanent makeup and cosmetic tattooing. It is the placement of pigment just beneath the 
epidermis of the skin. Although the effects of aging, surgeries and sun exposure may alter the 
pigment's appearance over time, it is permanent. For this reason, "refresher" appointments may
be appropriate every few years to keep your makeup looking its best.
  
 

What to expect
It is important to discuss your lifestyle and expectations
with your technician prior to having permanent cosmetics.

Immediately following application
The procedures result in visible redness, some swelling 
and occasional bruising. The application of ice to the area can help 
reduce these symptoms.

Up to one week after application
Most swelling and tenderness will be gone. There will be 
peeling of the skin and sloughing off of the pigment trapped in the epidermes. 
As the skin heals, the color will continue to change for the next few weeks.

Two months following application
Healing is complete. You may add to or adjust your 
procedure to suit your lifestyle. The application of sunscrenn and good 
sun sense will help preserve your makeup for years to come. 


Frequently Asked Questions
Does it hurt?

Although everyone's pain sensitivity varies, the application of permanent makeup involves minor discomfort
when topical anesthetics are used during the application. 

Is the procedure safe?

Your safety and comfort are our highest concern. Permanent cosmetics are applied using the highest
sanitation and sterilization standrads available. Sterile, single use needles are used with every 
client. Your artist is gloved at all times.

Are the Pigments safe?

Pigments used in permanent cosmetics have an extensive safety record. Used in both the medical and 
artist fields for over 20 years, their safety is undisputed.

How long does a procedure take?

Although the length of the procedures may vary, as well the number of visits required, 
most procedures generally take less than 1-1/2 hours.

Can I change it?

Although shape variations color adjustments can be made, think of your makeup as 
Permanent. If you desire to change your "look" from time to time, the
use of topical makeup is more appropriate. Permanent cosmetics are truly from 
"here to eternity". This is their appeal.   

Is is easy to remove?

No. Although lasers have aided greatly in the removal of brows and eyeliner,
lips require a different approach, as lasers tend to darken pigment in those areas rather than remove it.
