Often referred to as semi-permanent makeup or tattooed makeup, permanent makeup is the art of embedding ink into the dermis layer of your skin to resemble freshly applied makeup. The magic of this treatment is its ability to withstand the test of time and persist through various factors such as aging, lifestyle, skincare routine, and immune response. While it's true that the ink will fade over time, the aesthetic effects of permanent makeup are lasting, promising a beauty solution that never fades away.
Permanent makeup isn't one-size-fits-all. At A New You, we take pride in our personalised approach to meet the unique needs and aesthetic goals of each client. Guided by the expert hand of our resident permanent makeup artist, Jemma Jarman, we utilise a range of techniques and tools to help you achieve your desired look.
Microblading is one such method, ideal for creating hair simulation specifically for eyebrows. This technique, carried out with a hand tool rather than a machine, can effectively replicate missing or sparse hair, add colour density, or modify the width and height of your brows.
For procedures such as powder-shaded brows (resulting in an ombre or combination brows look), permanent lip colour/blushing, lip contouring, or lip liner and fine or bold eyeliner, we employ a tattoo machine.
Whether you're looking to enhance your brows, lips, or eyes, Jemma's advanced knowledge and skillful artistry ensure pristine results tailored specifically to you.
The longevity and appearance of permanent makeup can be affected by:
- Age
- Speed of skin rejuvenation
- Lifestyle (including outdoor activities exposed to sun and other elements)
- Skincare routine and beauty treatments
- Immune response and/or medications
Your first appointment will take approximately 2 hours. During this session, we focus on creating a shape that is unique to you, one that is timeless and aligns perfectly with the contours of your face. Once the treatment commences, it takes between 60 - 90 mins. Six to eight weeks later, a follow-up session is conducted to tweak and perfect the colour and shape if necessary.
Eyebrows: Our eyebrow treatments include Microblading and Tattoo Machine techniques to create a look that enhances your face's natural shape and features.
Eyeliner: We create a fine liner at the base of the lashes resulting in a subtle but effective method to make lashes appear fuller, creating an eye-opening style. Different thickness eye liners can be created with a small flick detail in the outer corner of the eye if desired.
Lips: Lip contouring, lip liner correction, and full lip blush artistry are fast becoming as popular as eyebrow and eyeliner requests. Many are seeking alternative ways to enhance and add volume to lips without injections.
