Lip tattooing is a semi-permanent cosmetic procedure that enhances the shape, definition, and colour of your lips by applying pigments directly into the skin. Whether you’re after a subtle, natural enhancement or a more dramatic look, there’s a range of options available, including:
Lip liner: Defines the outline of your lips, giving them a more prominent shape and contour.
Lip blend: Softens the look of the lip liner and enhances the natural shade of your lips, adding a natural, fuller appearance.
Full lip colour: Adds vibrant colour to your entire lips, providing the perfect replacement for lipstick and creating a bolder, more noticeable look.
Lip tattooing: A new reason to smile
Your lips are one of the first things people notice about you, so why not make them stand out? If you’ve ever wished for fuller, more defined lips or long-lasting colour without the hassle of applying lipstick every day, cosmetic lip tattooing might be the perfect solution for you.
Lip tattooing is ideal for anyone with pale lips, uneven colouring, or a lack of natural definition. It’s also a great option for those who struggle to apply lipstick or lip liner regularly or for people who want to save time on their beauty routine.
The procedure is minimally invasive, with little downtime, and results can last for several years, depending on your skin type and lifestyle. Before your treatment, Deb will sit down with you to discuss your goals, preferences, and any questions you may have to ensure the results align with your vision.
Eyeliner tattooing: A new dramatic look
If eyes are windows to the soul, then it is no wonder that so many people invest time and money into eye makeup. However, even the best eye makeup is prone to smudging and smearing, making it hard to apply and difficult to maintain. For those who are tired of struggling with daily eye makeup, it may be time for cosmetic eyeliner tattooing.Eyeliner can have a dramatic impact but it is also very difficult to apply properly. Because of this, eyeliner tattooing is especially popular among individuals who have unsteady hands or suffer from poor eyesight or arthritis. People with allergies have also turned to eyeliner tattooing to help alleviate their symptoms while still maintaining an impressive look.
When choosing eyeliner tattooing, it is important to know the options. The procedure can be performed on the top or bottom eyelid, and some people opt to have it completed on both.
The tattooing process is easily catered to any eye shape and overall complexion, allowing individuals to create a finished look that is truly customised to their exact appearance and lifestyle. The variations even include different thicknesses in order to determine how dramatic the end result will be. It is also possible to select personalised flourishes, such as tapered lines, tails, full lines, half lines, and more.
While the results may last more than five years, most people have their eyeliner tattooing retouched every two years for optimum results.
A perfectly arched eyebrow can frame the face. However, achieving such a define look is easier said than done. Careful preening requires time and patience, and even then, many people find that the results are hard to guarantee and maintain. For those who want the perfect arch without the work, cosmetic eyebrow tattooing may be the right solution.

Cosmetic eyebrow tattooing is popular for a variety of reasons. Some people who have naturally thin eyebrows or who have lost the ability to grow eyebrows due to hair loss, chemotherapy, or trauma, may seek this procedure as a way to supplement or replace their brows. Other people have allergies that make makeup impossible to stay on the skin. Others simply have grown tired of the nonstop maintenance. Whatever the reason, cosmetic eyebrow tattooing offers long term help.
Usually, cosmetic eyebrow tattooing is completed manually. This way, the technician can be very precise when injecting the pigments into the top layer of skin.
The results may last anywhere from 2 to 5 or more years, but many people opt to have a touch up done earlier. The overall cost will vary depending on the specifics of the procedure.
It is critical that a cosmetic eyebrow procedure is done correctly or the end result can look fake. The key is to properly simulate the appearance of hair in addition to creating the right shape for the face. Because of this, it is important to rely on skilled technicians in order to ensure that the shape, colour, and overall application is completed with finesse.
