Cosmetic tattooing, also known as permanent makeup or PMU, uses pigment implantation to enhance features such as brows, lips, and eyeliner.

Ombre brows are a semi-permanent cosmetic tattoo technique that creates a soft gradient shading effect, transitioning from light at the front of the brow to darker at the tail. The result looks natural, powdery, and perfectly filled-in.

Ombre brows typically last 2–3 years depending on skin type, sun exposure, aftercare, and lifestyle.

Most people report mild discomfort, often described as a light scratch. Numbing cream is used, making the procedure very tolerable.

Avoid sweating, swimming, steam, makeup around the brows, picking scabs, and sun exposure for 7–10 days.

Most clients may need 1–3 sessions, depending on their natural pigmentation and desired results.

Yes—it's specifically designed for melanin-rich lips and is safe across all Fitzpatrick skin types when performed by a trained PMU artist.

Common causes include genetics, melanin concentration, smoking, hormonal changes, medications, hyperpigmentation, or previous lip trauma.

Results can last 2–3 years, with some clients opting for touch-ups to maintain brightness.

Unfortunately, there are no guarantees with any cosmetic tattoo services. The color(s) can fade to unintended colors due to the physiological factors of skin & due to the fact that cosmetic tattooing is an art NOT an exact science. Skin varies, therefore results vary.
