Microblading & Lip Shading
Microblading
Microblading is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattoo technique that transforms your brows by creating fuller, natural-looking results. Using a precise handheld tool with a fine blade, a skilled artist carefully deposits pigment into the upper layers of the skin to mimic the appearance of individual hair strokes. The result is beautifully defined, natural-looking brows that complement your unique facial features.
This treatment is ideal for anyone looking to enhance sparse, uneven, or overplucked eyebrows, or for those simply wanting a more polished and symmetrical look. Perfect for those who value a low-maintenance beauty routine while enjoying the confidence that comes with stunning, well-defined brows!
Please note: On darker skin tones, permanent makeup may NOT appear as bold as it does on lighter skin tones .

Lip Shading
Lip shading is a semi-permanent makeup technique designed to enhance the natural color, shape, and definition of your lips. Using a specialized machine, pigment is gently deposited into the lips, creating a soft, blended, and natural-looking tint. This treatment is perfect for those looking to achieve fuller, more youthful-looking lips without the need for daily lipstick.
What to expect
How long does it last?
Results typically last 3-5 years, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare. Touch-ups are recommended to maintain the desired look.
Does it hurt?
Please note: You may be more sensitive during your menstrual cycle. If it’s within 3 days before, during, or after your period, please inform us.
What is the healing process like?
Your lips will go through a healing phase of about 5-10 days, during which minor peeling and dryness are normal. The color will initially appear more vibrant and then soften over time.
Can I still wear lipstick?
Yes! Once healed, you can still apply lipstick if you wish to change up your look, though many clients love the natural tint and go without.
Who is a good candidate for Lip Shading?
Lip shading is ideal for those with pale lips, uneven tones, or who want to enhance their natural lip color and shape. It may not be suitable for individuals with active cold sores or certain skin conditions.
Please note: If you have dark lips or Fordyce spots (oil glands), you may need more than one touch-up to achieve the desired color.
