Semi-Permanent Tattoo Eyeliner London
Beautiful eyes with minimum effort
The whole purpose of eye makeup is to draw attention to the eyes. It’s tricky to get right but very easy to get wrong if you’re not specially trained or lack experience of applying cosmetics.
That’s why semi-permanent eyeliner tattoos are a brilliant alternative to the daily rigmarole of applying your eye makeup by hand. They guarantee you long-lasting results and perfect makeup every day for several years.
Good to know
Eyeliner tattoos are a form of semi-permanent eye makeup that uses a specialist tool to add colour just above or between the eyelash line.
Together, our eyeliner tattoo alongside and lash treatments create a stunning effect, using fine or thicker lines of colour to give the appearance of more lashes and helping to give your eyes better definition and make them appear more striking.
There are many advantages that come from opting for an eyeliner tattoo ahead of conventional, manually applied eye makeup.
The key benefit to using an eyeliner tattoo is that it’s a long-lasting semi-permanent alternative that guarantees you’ll have perfect eye makeup every day, will never have to go through the nightly routine of removing makeup and over the lifetime of the treatment will save yourself hours of time in front of the mirror.
But there are other benefits, too.
You’ll be able to choose from a range of natural colour combinations to create a shade that exactly matches your skin tone and helps to frame your eyes to make them more alluring.
And because your eyeliner tattoo is semi-permanent, you’ll never have to worry about your eye make-up smudging, running or wearing off.
With both our treatments, you can decide exactly how subtle or dramatic you want the effect to be, ensuring you create a look that perfectly suits your own personal style.
Yes, in fact if you have sensitive eyes, it’s an ideal solution that can mean the end of the discomfort you might experience from wearing mascara and eyeliner. It’s also a perfect option for people who wear contact lenses and those who find it difficult to apply eye makeup due to unsteady hands.
Because the pigment is applied to the epidermis – the top layer of skin – and we use numbing creams, most patients experience only a tickling sensation.
Your eyeliner tattoo should last between 12-18 months, although the exact time depends on the natural skin renewal process and your own personal grooming routine. For example, we recommend you avoid exfoliation to preserve your semi-permanent eye makeup for longer.
You can expect our lash treatments to last between 6 and 9 months. This shorter period makes lash work popular for those who want to try out semi-permanent makeup before opting for longer-lasting treatments.
Once you book in for a consultation, we’ll sit down with you and talk through your reasons for choosing semi-permanent eye make-up and the look you’re trying to achieve. If you have pictures that inspire you, bring those along to your appointment, too!
Using our expertise and years of experience, we’ll then advise you on the best shape and/or colour options to achieve a personal style that works for you.
During your treatment, you’ll experience a buzzing sensation as the needle moves along the lash line to apply the colour.
Although the skin is being broken, there should be no bleeding, and because the area has been properly numbed, you may feel a slight tickling sensation, but no pain or discomfort.
Aftercare and maintenance
Your eyeliner tattoo treatment or lash line enhancement should heal very rapidly, but you should follow this advice for the first 7 to 10 days to ensure your treatment is successful and problem-free:
- Keep your eyes dry following treatment until the area has completely healed
- If you usually wear contact lenses, swap them for a pair of glasses during the healing process
- Use a healing balm as recommended by your semi-permanent eye makeup technician
- Avoid any exercise or activity that may cause you to sweat
- Don’t wear any conventional eye makeup, such as eye shadow or mascara, and when you do start to use it again, make sure you use a brand new product to avoid infection
- If your treatment takes place during the warmer months of the year, keep your eyes protected with sunglasses
To maintain the lasting effect of your treatment, consider the following:
- Use a high SPF cream to protect your semi-permanent eye make-up from the sun and maintain the vibrancy in the colour
- Try to avoid exfoliation around the area that has been treated as this, along with treatments such as skin peels and products containing alpha-hydroxy acids (AHA) all contribute to colour fade
- Consider having an annual refresh to achieve a consistent colour definition
