Advantages of Permanent Eyeliner

Permanent eyeliner is perfect for the active women, women that wear contact lenses, women allergic to makeup and those that simply have trouble applying eyeliner. You won’t be limited to the common dark eyeliner color.
Custom colors will be mixed for you to achieve your desired affect. It’s possible to create soft smudges or more dramatic lines. Permanent eyeliner can be applied to the top lash line as well as the bottom lash line, enhancing the shape and natural color of your eyes.
If you’re someone that does not normally wear eyeliner, you can have an eyelash enhancement. During this procedure pigment would be applied just to the lash line. The pigment is implanted between the lashes and looks like natural hair strokes. The look is a thicker, fuller looking lash without wearing mascara.
Permanent Eyeliner Process
The first part of your appointment will be spent deciding how you want your eyeliner to look. This includes deciding on the overall shape of your eyeliner to your desired eyeliner color. While most clients prefer a dark brown to a black eyeliner, an infinite number of colors can be mixed to match the eyeliner color of your choice.
Then, we clean off any residual eye makeup and apply the topical anesthetic. Once the topical anesthetic has taken affect, color is then implanted. Within minutes, you will have beautiful permanent eyeliner!
Permanent eyeliner softly defines eyes, enhances natural beauty and compliments eye color. You will look your best all the time and feel confident.
Different Eyeliner Techniques
Eyelash Enhancement: This method is for people who want an extremely natural look. Pigment is tattooed only at the base of eyelashes in-between their rows. No obvious line is drawn beyond the lash line. This causes the eyelash base to appear darker and fuller and frames the eye without the look of having eyeliner. Men choose this procedure to add definition to their eyes without looking like they are wearing makeup.

Permanent Eyeliner Aftercare
After permanent eyeliner procedures, it is normal for the eyes to be tender and swollen for a couple days afterward (see picture immediately after done). Ice can help prevent further swelling. Some patients may find an ice pack too cold and a washcloth or paper towel can be inserted in between the pack and the skin for comfort. At night, some patients find sleeping in an elevated positions more comfortable; this also helps reduce swelling.
Do not rub the eye in any capacity. It’s important to allow the area to heal properly without touching. Proper cleaning is important and can be achieved with the use of a cotton swab. Heat should be avoided and you should stay out of the sun and pools or hot tubs. No makeup should be worn for 3 days after the procedure.
Swelling: Moderate. An ice bag should be applied for the first few hours. Ten (10) minutes on and ten (10) minutes off. Following the procedure, you may find the area slightly puffy for the first few mornings. Either thinly sliced cucumbers or an ice bad placed on the eyed on the second day for a few minutes in the morning along with sleeping somewhat propped up on your back will make a difference if you know that you have a tendency to swell.
