Sometimes I see you have beautiful features and you know what cosmetic tattoo procedures you want. It intrigues me how some of you leave your lips untouched. This is for a few reasons; you might be aware that lipstick and crayons contain traces of lead, and other metals. These may be swallowed or at least absorbed through the mucosal tissues in the mouth. You may tend to reapply colour repeatedly during the day and night and it’s almost as if it is a habit or afterthought. In USA there have been studies on metals present in various popular brands. Manganese, Cadmium, Chromium, copper, nickel to name a few. Typically, some of these additives stabilise the product or adds shine and glitter.

Semi-permanent make-up, is the option. Cosmetic tattoo lip blush, lip-line or line & blend are decisions based on how much natural colour you already have. Lip tattoo is without doubt one of the better beauty enhancements you can give yourself. As our lips succumb to the elements + we can fool ourselves and everyone else that we have a wider, plumper more attractive pair of lips after the careful application of micro-pigmentation. Even the merest suggestion of colour (blush) can work well but be aware that all cosmetic tattoo fades and needs a refresh every year or so, usually.

Apart from the sheer good looks of lip tattoo, there is the peace of mind our lip inks and pigments are safe.

I believe most women are enjoying more natural procedures now and love it when friends, family and colleagues don’t quite know how they get their makeup looking super subtle and lovely.

Don’t forget to check our fibroblasting procedures and tattoo removal. A phone call and chat is a nice way to simplify your queries.

hello everyone,

Right now, I feel I’d like to write a book on the interesting people – no, fasinating people I meet in this business. When people feel comfortable with each other, they exchange ideas, thoughts, experiences and stories. I’m privileged to be able to say that cosmetic tattoo, together with my healing work brings about a wealth of the above. Every person has a story, and every person is special, without a doubt. This is why, to design semi-permanent eyebrows, eye-liners,  lip-line and lip-blend, and of course,  full lip tattoo is such an individual thing. They bring out the personality of the individual.

This month and next – Mothers Day remember… we are offering lip-liner and blend which is so popular,  with a half price under-eyeliner. Why underline? Because people seem to forget at times the effect that a soft under-eyeline, or darker (as the upper) can be. We also offer colours that acentuate the colour of the eyes. We can do great things together! I want to emphasise the fact that we do it together. Most ladies come in and inevitably say “I wish I’d done this years ago”. We hear this so often, in fact, all the time.  It’s true, and it’s also my own experience as well, so we understand you. Little by little, we work with the design and colour – nothing is done without y0ur consent and understanding. That way, you can look in the mirror each day and say “Yes, that looks pretty good!” After a short time, you don’t say that, you do tend to take it for granted in a way… and that’s very OK.

So, again, Lipliner and blend is the normal price (look at the site again) and half price for  under eyeliner for April and May.

As a footnote; on leaving, we give you a great little product to use especially after tattoo lip treatments. Mismo Cell Soother is  full of Aloe Vera and MSM. Vitamins A, B, C, E, A mino acids and a range of minerals help rejuvenate cells and soothe the skin.

Looking forward to meeting you, as usual!

It was brought to my attention the other day that some ladies out there would like some information on what to expect after their semi-permanent make-up. This makes sense to me, and could make the difference as to whether or not one would go ahead with such a procedure, and when.

Before I talk about ‘after care’, I should mention that if you have an important event coming up and you suddenly think “oh I should get some cosmetic tattoo done because we’ll be eating and drinking, celebrating and so on (hey, maybe it’s your wedding day!) and I want to look great the whole time” –  it’s a good idea to plan your first cosmetic tattoo appointment at least 2-3 weeks before the special event, and several weeks before full lip procedure. Why? Your new make-up does require a healing period, and care and common sense over this time is important for the best results.

After your first session which includes a consultation, a second meeting  is made to check the finer details of the work and to look at colour depth, shape and design.  You see, a repeat of the first procedure means deeper, stronger colour and the special flicks, or tasteful wings (for eye liner) or other details you decide on, are often best done at this appointment.

Recognise that to get the desired results of Cosmetic Tattoo require time and attention to detail.

Now, here’s your after care –

Cleansing & Moisturising

Use only water to cleanse the area for the first four days. For example, no cleansers or moisturisers and no oil. Healing balm will be given to you at the completion of the treatment and other ointment or balm may be recommended. Vasoline is also ideal.

Peeling

It is quite normal for the pigment to peel. this occurs during the first week. The degree of peeling may vary. Do not ‘help’ the peeling process in any way. No scratching please.

Swelling

Swelling may occur on the areas which have been treated, such as eyelids and lips. Brows rarely swell.
This usually subsides with a few hours and need not interfere with your normal home/work activities. Applying ice compresses to the area will sooth it and aid swelling.

Lip Line, Lip Blend & Full Lip

Those prone to Herpes Simplex (cold sores) should take L-Lysene for 2 weeks prior and 2 weeks after the procedure as a preventative. Also applying Zovirax will help. Keep lips moist and avoid lipstick for the first week where possible. 

 As a remarkable booster to aid healing and general health, I’ve always endorsed ‘Vital Greens’.

Your micro-pigmentation (cosmetic tattoo) will be treated with photonic light therapy for speedy healing before you leave. 

I hope this has been a help ladies, and gentlemen too!
