Make the most of your Cosmetic Tattoo..

Its quite magical how one season dramatically changes to another.  Suddenly it’s the beginning of summer here in glorious Queensland, with the promise of hot, sultry days and balmy  evenings.  Semi-permanent makeup interest never wanes, but the recognition of it’s obvious usefulness does quicken up as you are reminded again of oven blasting heat and holiday fun.

It might be useful to you to have a couple of tips on making the most of your tattooed makeup.  Makeup tattoo is great for those who frankly don’t really want to be seen without makeup.  It is also fabulous for those of you who have some difficulty slipping immaculate eyebrows on with a pencil or powder and it’s usually when you are in a hurry!  There are countless reasons why so many of you are total fans.  I have always felt that permanent makeup is not about vanity, there is just so much more (read through the Gentle Cosmetic site if you’d like to find out).

One of the many advantages of  the  lip tattoo procedure is never losing the vermillion line that we naturally have in our youth.  Lips can look many times sweeter when they are liplined or lipline and blended with a natural or pretty shade which can be worn alone or with traditional lip colourants.  Often lip gloss or balm is enough, and for those who don’t have a lot of natural colour on the mouth, a full  lip tattoo procedure is so appealing.  It was one of the best procedures I did on myself, and I like to jazz my lips up with lipstick if I feel inclined.

One great little habit to keep with brows, is to smooth over a small damp makeup sponge or any small square of sponge, after applying your foundation. Permanent makeup has something special all of it’s own. It neither looks like makeup, nor tattoo.  It has a softness and naturalness that you hardly want to add to.   However when you do want your makeup to stand out, then you have shape and style on brows, eyes and lips to fill in with whatever pizzazz you want at the time.

Remember, all tattoo fades, especially on fine facial skin.  This gives you the advantage of coming back for re-enhancement and change as you change.  My clients come back each year or two at a fraction of the original price. Jess does the best mink lashes! ‘Getting Lashed’ clients who have already sampled tattoo makeup with us will be given a great offer on lashes.

Have a super warm, enjoyable October.
