Plus, permanent makeup offers consistent results and boosts confidence, allowing you to wake up ready to go each day.
Lip Blushing
What is Lip Blushing?
Lip Blushing is a cosmetic procedure where we add color and definition and make your lips appear fuller and more symmetrical. It’s a great way to enhance the lips you already have, give the illusion of fullness, and bring color back in lips that have lost pigmentation. Lip Blushing pairs nicely with lip filler and can improve your appearance and confidence. Lip blushing can last from 1-3 years with periodic touch ups to freshen up faded pigment.

Powder Brow
What is Powder Brow?
Powder Brow is a procedure in which a cosmetic tattoo machine is used to gently add color to the skin in the brow area. Some also refer to this procedure as “ombré brows.” It’s an alternative to microblading that eliminates the possibility of trauma and scarring. Powder Brow creates a natural, filled-in look for eyebrows that’s worry-free, without the need for daily application.
