Your Permanent Makeup Journey
Initial Consultation
Your permanent makeup journey begins with a thorough consultation where we take the time to get to know you and understand your goals. We discuss what you hope to achieve, examine your skin type and facial features, explain the different techniques available, and answer all your questions honestly and completely. We show you examples of our previous work, discuss realistic expectations, and provide clear information about the process, healing, and maintenance. We also conduct a patch test if needed and provide detailed instructions to prepare you for your appointment. This consultation is complimentary and comes with no obligation.
Design & Mapping
On the day of your procedure, we begin with careful measurements and design work to create the perfect shape for your features. Using professional measuring tools and advanced symmetry techniques, we carefully map out the outline of your eyebrows, lips, or eyeliner. We consider your bone structure, facial proportions, and natural features to ensure the design will be balanced and flattering. We work with you to make any adjustments until you are completely satisfied with the planned design. This thorough planning phase ensures that the final result will be symmetrical, proportionate, and beautiful.
Application Process
Once you approve the design, we apply topical numbing cream to ensure your comfort. The actual application is performed using professional digital equipment and high-quality pigments that are carefully selected to suit your skin tone and achieve your desired look. The specific technique varies depending on your chosen service. For eyebrows, we create natural-looking hairstrokes or soft shading. For lips, we enhance the natural color and shape. For eyeliner, we apply precise definition along the lash line. Throughout the procedure, we maintain open communication and regularly check that you are comfortable.
Healing & Perfection
After your initial procedure, your permanent makeup will go through a healing process over the next 4-6 weeks. The color will appear darker at first and then lighten as the skin heals. We provide clear, detailed aftercare instructions and are available to answer any questions during the healing period. Once fully healed, you return for a complimentary perfecting session where we assess the results, make any necessary refinements, add color or density if needed, and ensure that every detail is exactly right. This two-step process ensures beautiful, lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions from Croydon Clients
How long does permanent makeup last?
Permanent makeup typically lasts between 1 to 3 years, depending on various factors including the technique used, your individual skin type, lifestyle habits, and how well you follow the aftercare instructions we provide. Factors such as sun exposure, use of skincare products containing acids or retinol, natural skin cell turnover rate, and your metabolism all influence how long the pigment remains visible. Generally, we recommend scheduling touch-up appointments every 12-18 months to maintain the best color and shape. During your consultation, we will provide a more specific timeline based on your unique circumstances and the service you choose.
Is permanent makeup safe for mature skin?
Yes, permanent makeup is safe and can be particularly beneficial for mature skin. As we age, eyebrows can thin, lip color can fade, and applying makeup with precision can become more challenging. Permanent makeup addresses all these concerns beautifully. We use gentle techniques and high-quality pigments that are suitable for all skin types and ages. For mature clients, we often recommend softer, more natural techniques that complement the skin rather than contrast with it. Many of our Croydon clients in their 50s, 60s, and beyond have been thrilled with how permanent makeup restores definition and reduces the daily effort required to look their best.
Does permanent makeup hurt?
Most clients experience minimal discomfort during permanent makeup procedures. We use professional topical numbing creams before and during the application to keep you comfortable throughout the process. The sensation is typically described as light scratching or pressure rather than pain. Individual pain tolerance varies, but the majority of our Croydon clients are pleasantly surprised by how comfortable the procedure is. For more sensitive areas like eyeliner, we take extra care with numbing and work gently. Your comfort is important to us, and we encourage you to communicate throughout the procedure so we can make adjustments if needed.
How much does permanent makeup cost for Croydon residents?
Our permanent makeup services range from $450 to $750, depending on the specific technique and area being treated. Nano brows and premium combo brows are priced at $750. Eyeliner ranges from $450 to $750 depending on the style. Lip blush is priced between $500 and $690. Standard ombré and combination brows are $700, while traditional microblading starts at $600. Corrections and cover-ups begin at $600, with the final price determined during consultation. All prices include both the initial session and one perfecting touch-up appointment. We believe in transparent pricing with no hidden fees, and we are happy to discuss payment options during your consultation.
What is the difference between ombré brows and nano brows?
Ombré brows and nano brows create quite different looks. Ombré brows use a soft shading technique that creates a powdered makeup effect, with the color lighter at the front and gradually darker towards the tail. This technique produces a soft, filled-in appearance similar to applying eyebrow powder or pencil. Nano brows, on the other hand, use an ultra-fine digital needle to create individual hairstrokes that mimic natural brow hairs. The result looks more like real hair growing rather than makeup applied. Both techniques are beautiful and long-lasting, but the choice depends on your personal preference and natural brow characteristics. During your consultation, we can show you examples and help you decide which technique is best for you.
Can I bring someone with me to my appointment?
Yes, you are welcome to bring a support person with you to your appointment. Many clients, especially those coming from Croydon or other outer suburbs, appreciate having a companion for the journey and the experience. Your support person can be present during the consultation and design phase to help you make decisions. However, during the actual procedure, we prefer to maintain a calm, focused environment in the treatment room. Your companion is welcome to wait in our comfortable reception area. If you plan to bring someone, please let us know when you book your appointment so we can ensure adequate space and comfort for both of you.
