Have you felt that routinely applying make up is a menace? I always find it hard, especially if I am running late.

Permanent makeup is a blessing to those like me. It is a technique employed by cosmetologists employing tattoos to produce designs to look like make up. This technique can be employed to replace eyeliners, darken eyebrows and even to enhance the color of lips. This technique can also be employed to hide scars.

You have to ensure that the cosmetologist knows exactly the look you want. In case of any imperfection, being a permanent make up technique, it will be difficult to modify or remove the make up. But salons often offer touch ups to adjust the color or evenness of the make up. Even though difficult, it can also be removed using laser treatment or through surgery.

Right after getting a permanent make up, your skin may look irritated, but within a few days, the color softens and new skin cells replaces the irritated cells and you get the perfect look.

You must keep in mind that before deciding to do a permanent make up, you must clarify whether the cosmetologist has the license to do the procedure. You must also ensure that the cosmetologist uses only approved inks to do the tattooing. It is also better to do an allergy test before you start with the actual make up procedure. More importantly, the utensils used must be sterile to avoid infections such as HIV or Hepatitis.

Permanent makeup is think it only suitable to an extent, I mean something like darkening of your eyebrows, but maybe enhancing the color of your lips wouldn't look as good. Something you always want like a defining shape or darker eyebrows is ok, because its something which will look good and kind of natural. But when it comes to lip color, well there will be a lot of things to look into, such as when applying your lipstick color it will look different than it did before, and it would be something which can not exactly remove.

good point Jyoti.

Eyelashes or eyebrows - OK. But lips? It sounds awfully. Anyway, once you'll have other lips color than your natural, without puting make-up, doesn't mean that you won't be bored after some time. And if, you'll tatoo them again? Or rather go back to a lipstick?
