Raise your hand if you’ve ever tried plucking or microblading in the pursuit of perfect eyebrows. Maybe you’ve even considered brow tattooing just to get that sharp, sculpted finish. For so long, it felt like the quest for perfectly shaped brows was a never-ending cycle of tweaks and treatments.

However, in 2025, things are shifting. The beauty world is welcoming a new trend that’s all about embracing the brows we already have, imperfections and all. Enter the “browlick,” a fun twist on the idea of natural brows and it might be the low-effort beauty trend we didn’t know we needed.

What Exactly is a Browlick?

A browlick is essentially the eyebrow version of a cowlick. You know, that little section of hair on your head that grows in a different direction from the rest? Well, your brows can have the same thing. Some of us are lucky enough to have naturally unruly eyebrow hairs that stand in all sorts of directions. Instead of seeing this as a flaw, the browlick trend encourages us to lean into these natural quirks.

What Products Do You Need?

  • Brow Gel or Wax (Clear or tinted)
  • Brow Powder or Pencil (For filling sparse areas)
  • Brow Brush (Spoolie or angled brush for shaping)
  • Setting Spray (Optional, for long-lasting hold)

How to Achieve the Perfect Browlick

Now, you might be wondering, “Okay, but how do I get this look if I don’t have a natural browlick?” No worries if your brow hairs are a little too tame, you can still mimic the look with the right technique.

Find Your Natural Browlick

Look at your brows in the mirror and identify where the unruly hairs are. Most people find that their browlick appears at the front of the eyebrow, near the bridge of the nose. These hairs tend to grow in odd directions, often pointing up or sideways. Don’t fight it. Let them be!

Don’t Tweeze Your Brows

While it might be tempting to tweeze away those wild hairs, resist the urge. The beauty of the browlick is in its natural imperfection. If you start plucking, you might end up losing that unique swirl that gives your brow character. A little stray hair here and there is part of what makes the trend so fresh.

Use Brow Gel to Define the Look

A little help from brow gel or wax can keep things in place without losing the natural texture. Apply a clear or tinted gel and lightly brush your brows to comb the hairs upward and in their natural direction. Let those quirky curls shine!

Fill in Gaps

If you’re dealing with sparse areas that don’t quite flow with the rest of the hairs, you can gently fill them in with a brow pencil or powder. Keep the strokes light and natural and draw enough lines to areas where volume is needed.

Blend and Set

Once your browlick is looking the way you want it, use a spoolie or brush to blend the product and shape the hairs lightly. You can even finish things off with a quick spritz of setting spray to lock it all in for the day.

Browlick Trend: Perfectly Imperfect Brows

Beauty trends like the browlick are shifting standards away from symmetry and over-sculpting. The trend shows that unique features can be your most beautiful ones.

Will you try the browlick and embrace your own version of undone beauty?

5 FAQs: Browlick Trend

  1. What is the Browlick trend?
    The Browlick trend celebrates natural, unruly eyebrow shapes, embracing imperfections like swirls or stray hairs, rather than focusing on perfect symmetry.
  2. How do I know if I have a Browlick?
    If your brows have a natural swirl or some hairs growing in a different direction, especially at the front, you likely have a browlick.
  3. Do I need to pluck my brows to get a Browlick?
    No! The Browlick is all about embracing your natural brow shape, so plucking or over-grooming isn’t necessary.
  4. Can I create a Browlick if I don’t have one naturally?
    Yes, using a strong hold brow gel or wax, you can brush your brows in a way that mimics the natural, wild look of a browlick.
  5. What products do I need for the Browlick look?
    All you need is a brow gel (clear or tinted), a brow brush, and possibly a brow powder to fill in sparse areas.

Wedding Makeup Tutorials https://makeuptutorials.com/wedding-makeup-makeup-tutorial/ https://makeuptutorials.com/wedding-makeup-makeup-tutorial/#respond Sat, 08 Mar 2025 04:38:30 +0000 http://youresopretty.com/?p=676 As your big day approaches, do you stress over the perfect makeup?

Bridal makeup is all about showing off your natural beauty! So, try this fresh faced look on for size, practice, and you will be ready for your big day in no time at all.

Wedding Makeup | Makeup Tutorial

Supplies you will need for your perfect big day bridal makeup:

  • Long-Wear Foundation in your shade
  • Peachy Colored Blush
  • Champagne Colored Shimmery Powder
  • Copper Eyeshadow
  • Black Kohl Eyeliner
  • False Lashes/ Glue
  • Brown Liquid Liner
  • Brow Powder
  • Long-Wear Lip Color

Wedding_Makeup1

 

Step 1: Flawless Canvas
On your big day, the most important element to your makeup is LONGEVITY! Test many products to find your favorite, you’ll thank yourself in the long run!! We will begin by applying our foundation evenly on our face and neck. Blend well!

Wedding_Makeup04
Apply your favorite foundation.

Step 2: The Blushing Bride.
A key element to any beautiful bride is blush! Blush makes us look young and vibrant. Peachy colored blush looks bright, and great on every skin tone. Apply to the apples of your cheeks in a circular motion, keeping the blush one finger width away from your nose.

Wedding_Makeup08
Peach on the cheeks.

Step 3: Time to shine!
Using a large soft brush, apply the champagne shimmer to the top of the cheekbone to accentuate your features. Apply along the collar bone for added depth, making you appear slim and lovely. Finish off your highlighting by hitting the brow bone just underneath the eyebrow, and inner corners of the eye for a bright eyed look.

Wedding_Makeup18
Highlight cheekbone.
Wedding_Makeup21
Highlight collar bone.
Wedding_Makeup20
Highlight brow bone.
Wedding_Makeup19
Highlight corner of eye.

 

Step 4: Sparkle in your eyes!
Your big day is all about showing off your natural beauty! To add just the right amount of shine, apply a copper eyeshadow over the eyelid, slightly above the crease, and underneath your lower lash line. We will not be applying eyeliner to the lower eyelid, because we want to keep your eyes as open and fresh as we can, despite any stress you might be feeling! For added emphasis, try applying the shadow wet. This will give you a bolder look, and helps with longevity.

Wedding_Makeup23
Copper shadow on the lid.

 

Step 5: Think youthful.
A sign of aging is the loss of eyebrow hairs, and over plucked brows aren’t a flattering frame to any eye shape! We want to look like we woke up perfect, despite hardly sleeping the week before the wedding, so we will fill in our brows with a powder that is 1-2 shades darker than our head hair. Remember! Too dark of brows for your hair color can look harsh and overdone. When filling in the brows, do not over draw the brows much past the natural hairs. Over drawn brows will not photograph well, and we know that every mom, aunt, and grandma will want a photo of the big day.

Wedding_Makeup26
Eyebrows frame the eye.

 

Step 6: Tightline.
Using a black kohl liner, preferably waterproof, line UNDERNEATH your upper lashes. This is referred to as tightlining, and helps to create the appearance of thick upper lashes.

Wedding_Makeup28
Waterproof liner is a must!

Step 7: A necessary touch.
False lashes are a MUST for any bride. They add attention and drama to the eye, dress up any makeup, and make us look naturally beautiful. For the most natural look, try cutting the eyelash in half and apply only to the outer corner. Be sure both corners of the false lash are adhered well.

Wedding_Makeup30
Too dramatic of lashes can cause shadows in photos!

Step 8: Blend.
To blend in the lash band, apply a brown liquid eyeliner. We suggest a straight liner, because a winged liner could smudge as the night goes on. We chose brown because is is less harsh looking than a black liner.

Wedding_Makeup31
Softly blend out liner.

Step 9: Last but not least!
For the finishing touch to your perfect wedding day makeup, apply lip color. Lip color preferences vary so much per individual, that we will leave it up to you to choose what color you see fit. We suggest something natural and long-wearing, like a stain or a gloss designed to stay for several hours.

Wedding_Makeup33
A nude glossy lip is easy to maintain!

There you have it, simplicity on the most complex day of your life! Enjoy the fresh face, and keep it sweet and simple. You’ll thank yourself for it later!

Eyebrow Style Transformations: Find the Best Match for Your Face Shape https://makeuptutorials.com/eyebrow-style-transformations-match/ https://makeuptutorials.com/eyebrow-style-transformations-match/#respond Wed, 15 Jan 2025 06:00:56 +0000 https://makeuptutorials.com/?p=66128 Eyebrow styles shape how the world perceives your facial proportions. They can emphasize your eyes, soften your features, or add a bold touch to your face overall. But choosing the right eyebrow style isn’t one-size-fits-all. It’s all about matching your brows to your unique face shape. So, are you ready to up your beauty game? Let’s explore how to find your perfect eyebrow match.

Eyebrow Style Transformations: Find the Best Match for Your Face Shape

Why Brows Are the Real Beauty MVPs

Brows are the punctuation marks of the face. They enhance your face’s natural symmetry and draw attention to your eyes. They can also highlight your cheekbones or soften strong features. For instance, lifting your brows with a soft arch can brighten your expression. A thicker brow, on the other hand, can make your face look more youthful and balanced. Moreover, the eyebrow style you choose can also show off your personality. A fluffy, feathered brow gives off a carefree, effortless vibe, while a sharply defined arch says you mean business.

How to Identify Your Face Shape?

Before you start shaping your brows, determine your face shape. This will help you create a look that flatters your features naturally. Just tie your hair back and observe your face contours in the mirror.

  • Round Face: Your cheeks are the widest area, with soft angles and a short chin.
  • Oval Face: Your face is longer than wide, with balanced proportions and gentle curves.
  • Square Face: A strong jawline and a broad forehead create sharp angles.
  • Heart Face: A wide forehead tapers into a narrow, pointed chin and creates a heart-like outline.
  • Diamond Face: High cheekbones stand out, while your forehead and chin are slightly narrower.

Which Eyebrow Style Suits Your Face Shape Best? ‍♀

Raise your brows if you’ve ever wondered what eyebrow style works best for your face. Well, you’re in luck! Today, we have insider tips to match brows to your beautiful bone structure. Now, let’s get those arches on point, shall we?

Round Face: Add Angles for Structure

If you have a round face, aim to create the illusion of length. A high, defined arch adds structure to soft features and elongates your face. Keeping your brows slightly thicker adds balance and modernity.

Oval Face: Stick to Balanced Arches

Oval faces are incredibly versatile, so most brow shapes work well. A natural arch that gently follows the brow bone enhances balanced proportions. Keeping everything proportional ensures that your brows complement your face rather than overpower it.

Square Face: Soften the Angles

A square face benefits from brows that offset strong features. Rounded brows with a subtle arch help soften a defined jawline, creating balance. Slightly thicker brows also add harmony and make your look feel cohesive.

Heart Face: Balance the Drama

Heart-shaped faces look fantastic with brows that soften the upper half of the face. A soft arch with slightly extended tails draws attention downward and balances a broader forehead. Natural, feathered brows can also beautifully highlight your features.

Diamond Face: Embrace Soft Curves

Diamond-shaped faces already have striking cheekbones, so soft brows create a perfect contrast. A gently rounded shape with medium thickness adds softness and balance. Avoid sharp or high arches, which can exaggerate angular features.

Step-by-Step Guide to Perfect Brows

Bold, bushy, arched, or straight—eyebrow styles can completely transform your vibe. Here’s your step-by-step guide to achieve your dream brows:

Brow Toolkit Essentials

  • Tweezers
  • Brow Pencil
  • Spoolie Brush
  • Tinted Brow Gel
  • Angled Brush
  • Highlighter

Map Your Brows

Mapping is essential for achieving symmetry and balance. Hold a pencil vertically from the side of your nose to your brow. Mark this spot as the starting point of your brow. Then, angle the pencil across your iris to locate the brow arch’s highest point. Finally, tilt the pencil toward the eye’s outer corner to identify where your brow should end.

Connecting these points with light pencil strokes creates a guide for brow shaping. This ensures even brows that frame the face beautifully. Without mapping, it’s easy to end up with mismatched brows or uneven proportions.

Tweeze with Precision

Tweezing should always start outside the mapped area to avoid over-plucking. To reduce irritation, slowly remove stray hairs and pull them toward hair growth. As you work, pause frequently to step back and evaluate your progress. This helps prevent removing too much too quickly.

If you’re unsure about a particular hair, leave it for now. It’s better to err on the side of caution and revisit it later if necessary. Precision is key here, so take your time and trust the process.

Fill in Sparse Areas

Filling in sparse areas brings your brows to life. Using a brow pencil, apply small, hair-like strokes that mimic natural growth. Concentrate on the thinnest spots, but don’t overfill! For best results, start light and build up gradually.

Additionally, brush through your brows with a tinted gel to add fluff and texture. This adds dimension while keeping everything in place. Prefer a bolder brow? Switch to a pomade and angled brush for a sharper definition. Remember, blending as you go keeps the look cohesive and natural.

Blend Everything Seamlessly

Blending is the secret to polished, professional-looking brows. Grab a spoolie brush and gently soften any harsh lines. This evenly distributes the product and ensures a smooth finish.

Also, while brushing, check the overall shape to catch any uneven spots. This reveals areas that might need extra filling or blending. Taking time to blend elevates a basic brow into a flawless masterpiece.

Highlight for a Finishing Touch

Highlighter adds a luminous finishing touch that lifts and defines your brows. Apply a small amount just under the arch, then blend it outward for a glowing effect. This subtle detail instantly brightens your eyes and enhances the overall look.

Moreover, use concealer to clean up around the brows for even sharper edges. This adds definition without requiring a heavy hand. Meanwhile, the highlighter and concealer combo also makes your brows look clean and lifted.

Brow Maintenance Tips

Regular upkeep is key to maintaining your perfect brows. Tweeze stray hairs every two to three weeks and avoid over-plucking! If your brows are sparse or need some TLC, use a brow serum to encourage growth. Patience and consistent care will help you achieve healthier, fuller brows.

Eyebrow Tutorial For Perfect Eyebrows That Last https://makeuptutorials.com/eyebrow-tutorial-perfect-eyebrows/ https://makeuptutorials.com/eyebrow-tutorial-perfect-eyebrows/#respond Sat, 16 Nov 2024 05:44:43 +0000 https://makeuptutorials.com/?p=37309 Looking for a solid eyebrow tutorial? Achieve the eyebrow goals of your dreams, without it smudging on your face, with this eyebrow routine from Youtube beauty guru, Cosmetics by Mackenzie, her brows are the epitome of FLEEK.

The Eyebrow Tutorial That Will Make Brows Last Longer

I love working on a client with groomed eyebrows because the makeup is easier to map out and it just gives you a better perspective of the face and the personality. Before we begin, I just want to say that there are many ways you can do your eyebrows. I bet we all have our own eyebrow routine, but every once in a while it’s worth looking at other people’s eyebrow routines to see if we can improve or if there’s a technique we’re missing out on. Much like how you have your own taste in clothes, you need to stay updated with the trends no matter how classic your wardrobe is.

You’ll find this video by Cosmetics by Mackenzie quite helpful!

Before we jump into the eyebrow tutorial, I just want to give you the list of what you need. Of course, you can use a different brand per product, but here are the recommendations to create the perfect eyebrows based on the eyebrow tutorial.

Things you’ll need for this eyebrow tutorial:

Watch the complete eyebrow tutorial by Cosmetics by Mackenzie here. Or follow along in the steps below.

I love how this tutorial is simple and easy, absolutely anyone can do this. Also, can I just say, I really dig her matte black nail polish! I’m totally turning that into my own version of a sophisticated nail look.

 

Step 1: Thinly Apply Powder Over The Eyebrow

Using a powder brush, dip the brush into a setting powder and lightly press it on the eyebrow this allows for more texture for the eyebrow products to hold on to and it also takes out the oil around that area which might ruin how your makeup holds.

 

Step 2: Brush The Hair Up

It’s best to brush the hair up before applying any product so you can see where you need to fill in areas that you don’t normally see when your eyebrow hairs are down.

 

Step 3: Outline The Eyebrow

Start by using an eyebrow pomade, in this eyebrow tutorial, the Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade was used with the help of the ABH angled brush. Apply the pomade starting on the bottom part of the eyebrows to give it a shape. Lightly brush the product upward with a spoolie to blend for a more natural effect.

 

Step 4: Fill Eyebrow

Using an eyebrow powder, use the same angled brush and use the eyebrow powder to fill them in. Mackenzie’s eyebrow tutorial used the ABH Duo Powder to create a more filled-in eyebrow.

 

Step 5: Precisely Define Eyebrow

Using concealer and a flat shader brush, apply on the brow bone just below where you outlined the eyebrows and blend. Do the same thing on top of the eyebrow to really define your eyebrow. This also prevents the product from feathering or smudging especially in humid weather.

 

Step 6: Apply Eyebrow Gel

Using an eyebrow gel, set the eyebrow hair by brushing it with the eyebrow gel wand upwards and across. The Maybelline Great Lash clear mascara was used to achieve this look, it works just the same compared to higher end products and it’s cheaper too.

 

Now all you have to do is wear this look with 2017’s pantone color of the year and you’ll definitely be on trend.

Everything You Need to Know About Permanent Makeup https://makeuptutorials.com/permanent-makeup/ https://makeuptutorials.com/permanent-makeup/#respond Wed, 06 Nov 2024 14:28:56 +0000 https://makeuptutorials.com/?p=35353

If you’ve ever considered getting permanent makeup – eyeliner, lipliner, or eyebrows – you’ve come to the right place! Choosing to get permanent makeup is a huge decision, so it’s important to be well-informed beforehand. We’ve compiled several expertly-crafted articles and videos that will teach you the basics of permanent makeup. Check out the post below to see the complete guide, and be sure to let us know what you think in the comments!

The Ultimate Guide to Permanent Makeup

Permanent makeup is just that – permanent! Which means it’s incredibly important to be well-informed and do a ton of research before deciding it permanent makeup is right for you. In the two articles below, makeup experts Ryan Quisumbing and Jayna Davis explain the basics of permanent makeup. Check out the post below to learn why many people choose permanent makeup, as well as the pros and cons of this kind of procedure.

Reasons to Choose Permanent Makeup

Permanent makeup is a somewhat older type of technology that has continued to stick around. Permanent makeup classes teach those who tattoo to put ink on the face that looks as if it is makeup. While some people may seem permanent makeup as a technology for those who are lazy, those who take permanent makeup classes are not thinking of that; they are thinking of those who are unable to apply makeup on their own. Those who have trouble can be helped by permanent makeup.

Eyesight Problems


When it comes to makeup, eyesight is key. When people see bad makeup on someone, they will often ask themselves if the person can even see themselves. Some people have trouble seeing, and therefore have trouble applying makeup. Permanent makeup classes teach people to apply makeup so that people who have trouble seeing can consistently have the look of well-applied makeup.

Steadying Problems

When some people go through permanent makeup classes, they may not realize who they are helping. There are people, both young and old, that have trouble staying steady. Some people have conditions or problems that cause them to shake. Anyone who has tried putting on makeup while shaking will realize how hard this can be. Permanent makeup helps those who have steadying problems have a complete look, with makeup and all.

Allergy Problems

Those who have had allergy problems with jewelry will begin to understand the problem of those who are allergic to makeup. Some people are allergic to makeup, generally because of the materials in the makeup. The way that their bodies react to the makeup means that they cannot wear it. Permanent make up classes and permanent makeup can help these people to have the look of makeup without the actual makeup. Because they are not allergic to the ink that is used to tattoo on the face, they can handle the ink, and their bodies will not have the same issues as with makeup.

When it comes to simple, everyday tasks such as makeup, people tend to forget those who cannot do them. Because it is such a normal activity, those who cannot do it are often frustrated. Permanent makeup classes allow people to do more than tattoo makeup onto the face; permanent makeup classes allow those to help out people that have issues applying makeup.

Permanent Makeup – Eyeliner and Lip Liner

I’m the kind of person who likes to look good, but dreads having to roll out of bed in the mornings because I’ll have to go through all of the elaborate minutiae of makeup application.

Every morning is a personal war for me; and it sometimes got to the point where I would lie in bed with the covers tucked over my head until two in the afternoon, simply because I didn’t want to bother with my exceedingly tedious morning routine.

The thought has occasionally occurred to me to skip putting on makeup altogether, but I haven’t left my house without makeup on since before I was in high school, and I don’t intend on changing that now.

After another completely wasted Saturday morning spent lying in bed and trying to pretend that I was still asleep though, I finally decided that I had had enough. I searched the internet for permanent makeup options. I wanted to start out slowly; with a little permanent eyeliner or permanent lip liner or semi permanent lip liner maybe.

What is permanent makeup?

If you’re wondering what permanent makeup is; it’s essentially makeup that’s been tattooed directly onto a person’s face. The difference between permanent lip liner, for example, and the butterfly tattoo a person might have had inked onto their lower back, is that whereas tattoos are mostly meant to make a statement of some sort about somebody’s personality, makeup is simply meant to enhance (or slightly alter) whatever’s already there.

How is permanent makeup applied?

As mentioned in the last paragraph, permanent makeup is basically a bunch of tattoos. This means that it is usually applied the same way tattoos are; except that they’re almost always applied by a plastic surgeon, since facial skin is much more delicate than the skin in most of the rest of the body, and since the tattoos are usually placed really close to important parts of the body, like the eyes.

Does applying permanent makeup hurt?

The short answer to that one is “yes.” Getting a tattoo is essentially getting punctured a lot of times with an ink-filled needle. A permanent makeup job will be essentially the same thing. A permanent makeup machine; a device used specifically for the application of permanent makeup will often be used; although it pretty much does the same thing a tattoo needle does: deposit pigment into deep layers of skin.

With permanent makeup though, it isn’t applied as deeply, and since it’s applied to the face, most plastic surgeons will apply topical or local anesthetic to whatever you want to put makeup on.

The most you will probably feel will be some minor discomfort, and there may be a bit of swelling and stinging afterwards as well. You might want to ask your doctor about what you can do to deal with the after-effects.

What are the pros and cons of permanent makeup?

The first con is fairly obvious. It’s permanent. You’ll have it for the rest of your life. Or, since it’s really likely that the ink will fade over time, you’ll have it for at least a few years. This means that if you opted to have blue permanent eyeliner, you’re going to have to live with that particular permanent eyeliner color for a while, unless you’re willing to undergo costly and painful (usually more painful than the permanent makeup application process) tattoo removal to get rid of it.

Of course, this is probably the reason why people get makeup in the first place, so it counts as a pro as well: the fact that it stays. It’s really a double-edged sword.

This is why if you want to get makeup, you have to think long and hard before making your decision; there aren’t any morning after take backsides once you have this kind of makeup on your face. A lot of clinics and beauty centers where makeup services are being offered will also have specialists to help you with your color and design choices.

To get the look you want and avoid infections, make sure that you get a cosmetologist or permanent makeup specialist you trust, who uses sterilized equipment.

Another con to permanent makeup is the cost; something as simple as permanent eyeliner can set you back anywhere from three hundred dollars, to a thousand. It does help you cut back on the need to buy eyeliner every few weeks or months though, which does save you some money. If you think about it, this isn’t that much of a con, really.

What about semi permanent makeup, like semi permanent lip liner? Is there a difference?

That depends on who you’re talking to. Permanent makeup is often also called semi permanent makeup; so you can opt to refer to your new lip liner job as semi permanent lip liner or permanent lip liner. Sometimes though, there can be a small difference between semi permanent and permanent makeup. Some brands or cosmetic lines will tout their products or services as semi makeup, but will actually refer to ordinary cosmetics formulated to be especially long wearing.

Whether you’re planning on giving makeup a try and going under the cosmetologist’s needle with permanent eyeliner or semi permanent lip liner, or simply finding some reeeeeeaaally long-wearing semi permanent lip liner though, getting the colors and services that suit your needs can be easy, if you know what you’re looking for.

Getting Permanent Makeup: Before and After

In the video below, beauty gurus Michelle and Laura of the MMandLShow visit Janette, a permanent makeup technician and expert. Michelle is back for a second round of permanent makeup on her eyebrows, as well as her first round of eyeliner tattoos. During the procedure, Janette provides expert tips and tricks for choosing the right type of permanent makeup, as well as advice for the healing process.

Watch Janette perform the entire procedure in the video below, and check out some of the video highlights in the transcript below.

Permanent Makeup: Before

Laura: So what are you doing right now to Michelle?

Janette: I’m just numbing her. And I’ve put a little dye on her eyelashes because she can’t wear mascara for five days.

 

L: What would you recommend to all of our subscribers in different locations if they’re not able to fly to come and see you?

J: So they want to go and either see pictures [of permanent makeup]. Actual work is better to see. I am a referral-based only business. You can get some referrals from the person that you’re going to go see. Websites are great, pictures are great, but even if you could see some actual people, that would be better. Good permanent makeup shouldn’t be spotted, so that’s the problem with finding people that have it done.

Last update on 2025-11-22 / Affiliate links / Images from Amazon Product Advertising API

Choosing the Right Color

J: After having these tattooed, you need to keep up on dying your eyebrows. That’s the biggest mistake people do, especially the blondes. And so I always tell them that, okay, you cannot have tattooed skin and blonde fuzz on top of your face. That looks ridiculous.

L: So probably one of the hardest things about tattooing is picking out the color?

J: The color, and finding a color that’s going to correspond to a makeup color because it’s not the same world. So it’s finding a color that’s neutral but warm, that’s not yellow, that’s not pink…so it’s hard to find the right mixtures. [Michelle’s] last color was like the dark sienna, which is almost like black-brown.

Michelle: You want to plan [this procedure] when you’re not doing something important for like, the following week, right?

J: Yes. You’re going to look overdone…Later we’ll actually start to slip off from these in three to five days, and then they’ll lighten. But until that point, you cannot put makeup over them.

The Healing Process

J: You’re going to get a little bit of scabbing, but what you want is just a scabbing that flakes. You don’t want a big, deep scab. The key to keeping this in really good is to keep a lot of ointment on it so it does not scab.

Vitamin E oil that are in the capsules, if you pop them a couple times a day and rub that first, or just squeeze it on there first, it filters down between the hairs so it really sticks to the skin. And then you want to put a really tacky ointment on top. Aquaphor is awesome for eyebrows…You basically want to keep [your eyebrows] so moist, so wet that they don’t scab. You’re going to have a layer that comes off anyways, but you want to try to avoid scabbing. I tell clients to do it every hour; that’s overkill, but they actually will do it every two hours. And then before you go to bed at night, you really want to cake on whatever you’re using. You want to do Vitamin E then Aquaphor, or you could use Vaseline over the top.

You never want to use Neosporin around your eyes…Some people can have this hideous reaction to it…and the whole eyes swell up. It’s awful. So I would never recommend using any kind of Neosporin [or] polysporin on the eyebrows…And you normally wouldn’t even know you’re allergic to it…you would just be getting red and swollen and puffy. And people usually make the mistake of applying more Neosporin at that point, thinking they have an infection and it just gets worse and worse…So you’re better just to use Vitamin E oil, Aquaphor I think is one of the best, Vaseline, Bag Balm. I make a little concoction of avocado, Vitamin E oil, shea butter, and Aquaphor. So it’s really tacky and it sticks well.

L: When should someone come back? Does everyone need a touch-up?

J: Yes, you want to give them six to eight weeks. Some technicians will tell you as early as two weeks. I would not recommend going back in two weeks; the skin is not healed.

The Cost of Permanent Makeup

L: What is the cost of getting your eyebrows done?

J: Eyebrows are $350; sometimes down to $300, up to $400. But some people that are just going to do a hairline might charge you less, might charge you more. Do you need a full eyebrow done, do you need a half eyebrow done – and some people could just charge less.

L: And then what about eyeliner?

J: If it’s top and bottom waterline, $400. And lashline. So that’s a full eyeliner. If you just want it top, it’s $300.

Permanent Eyeliner

L: This is crazy. So you’re doing the waterline?

J: I’ve gone over [the waterline] once just a little bit, and then I’ve put…a secondary numbing, which is more of a gel form, and it usually works best once the skin’s been broken.

 

L: And what color are you doing?

J: This is a black, black brown. You typically don’t want to put a straight black in their eyes because it’s got so much blue in it that it gets blue really fast.

L: So what are some things people should be aware of in regards to getting their eyeliner tattooed?

J: A lot of people are using lash growth products…I recommend going off them one to two months before you get your eyeliner tattooed. The reason being is… that  is actually a capillary bed that kind of gets pulled up to the surface. Once you have that much blood supply to the lashes, this becomes very bloody. And what happens is that as you go over [the top waterline], you’ll get a bruise layer that will come out.

Ink is a bunch of particles in a liquid. So once the liquid is reabsorbed by the body, you’re left with all these particles. But if you get a big bruise out here, all these particles can run into that bruise. So that’s going to give you this really fuzzy line; it’s called migration. You want to go off for two months – plus it makes it hurt so bad because you are bleeding.

The other thing is…ask your technician if they use a product called Celluvisc. It’s a thick eye drop. So I keep putting this into her eye the whole time, so that’s going to coat her eyeball…and I put the numbing cream on. You’re going to have lower risk of corneal abrasion, meaning the numbing cream can burn your eyeballs, so you really want to use a lot of Celluvisc so you don’t have a corneal burn from the numbing cream.

L: Can you do [the procedure] if you’re pregnant?

J: I don’t like to do pregnant women. The reason is, I like you to take Benadryl before coming, or an antihistamine. And if your technician doesn’t tell you that too, it’s just a great thing you can do by yourself. Take an antihistamine, I usually say Benadryl, the night before and one before coming…It helps to dry up your eyes and it helps them not swell so much, and it helps them not water so much.

L: What about breastfeeding?

J: Breastfeeding, usually you’re okay.

Permanent Makeup: After

 

M: What’s the biggest mistake people make after [getting permanent makeup]?

J: Do not wash [your eyebrows] with soap. Don’t put any facial products on them. They can get wet, but you don’t want to overdo the water. No hot tubs, no steam rooms, no swimming pools. This is for five days. And no makeup. The biggest mistake is they let [their eyebrows] dry and they try to put their makeup on. Letting them dry is the biggest mistake. You want to keep this so lubricated that it doesn’t have a second to dry, and it will stay in perfect.

M: So how long until you know the final result?

J: [Eyebrows] will continue to settle for more than a month. So they’ll keep fading, they’ll soften, the color might change still just a little bit. I would say give everything at least four weeks. Within a week, you pretty much know what’s going to stay on the eyes.

One Day Later

 

L: This is the next day at 11:00 at night. [Her eyes] were a little bit more swollen this morning. They’ve actually gone down. Wouldn’t you say?

M: Yeah. When I woke up this morning I actually couldn’t open my eyes – they were crusted together.

Two Days Later

 

M: Day two. I was really bad at keeping the lubricant on.

L: How many times have you iced?

M: Just like once, you know.

Four Days Later

 

M: My eyes are quite bloodshot today, but the swelling has gone down. My eyes are protruding less. And I did ice my eyes last night.

Five Days Later

 

M: No swelling, the brows have faded nicely. I feel like I can go out in public.

L: It looks really good!
