What to expect

1

Agree shape, colour and placement

Review the proposed brow, lip or eyeliner design before pigment is applied, and discuss how it may change over time.

2

Check hygiene and consent

Permanent makeup is a tattoo procedure. Confirm clean equipment, pigment information and how infection or an allergic reaction will be managed.

3

Plan healing and review

Obtain the area-specific cleaning routine and discuss whether and when a review or touch-up is appropriate.

Preparation and aftercare

Before your appointment

  • Tell the practitioner about previous permanent makeup, ink reactions and relevant skin conditions.
  • For lip work, mention cold sores; for eyeliner, mention eye symptoms and contact lenses so the practitioner can advise.

After your appointment

  • Follow the artist’s cleaning instructions and do not pick healing skin or apply unapproved products over it.
  • Worsening redness, swelling or discharge needs assessment. Eye pain or vision changes after eyeliner work require prompt medical attention.

FAQs

Is lip liner permanent makeup painful?

We apply effective, medical-grade topical numbing gels prior to and during the procedure to keep discomfort minimal. Most clients describe the sensation as a light vibration or mild tickle along the outer lip line.

What is the difference between Lip Liner and Full Lip Contour / Blush?

Lip Liner focuses exclusively on restoring definition along the outer vermilion border to frame the lips. Full Lip Contour / Blush outlines the border and shades pigment across the entire body of the lip for a full wash of color.

Will permanent lip liner look like a harsh pencil line?

Not unless you specifically request a bold graphic line! Our technicians use soft pixel-shading techniques that feather slightly inward, ensuring the liner heals into a smooth, natural-looking frame that blends seamlessly with your natural lip tissue or lipstick.

What should I do if I am prone to cold sores?

If you have ever experienced a cold sore, the stimulation from tattooing can trigger a breakout. You must take a prescribed antiviral medication (such as Zovirax or Valtrex) 3 days before and 3 days after your appointment to protect your healing skin.

How long does permanent lip liner last?

Permanent lip liner generally lasts 2 to 3 years, depending on your skin type, sun exposure, and lifestyle. Periodic color boosts help keep the outline crisp and vibrant.
