Our Services

We specialize in permanent makeup, offering a range of services designed to enhance your natural beauty. Our permanent makeup techniques use natural hyperrealistic 3D hairstrokes for brows called microblading and complex shading techniques for lips, eyes, and brows. These methods promote faster healing, prevent undesirable swelling or change of color, and deliver exceptional results. Our practitioners are highly trained and skilled, ensuring you receive quality service from start to finish.

Our services include:

• Microblading: Our innovative microblading technique creates the most natural and subtle hairstrokes for your brows.
• Powder Brows: Similar to powder brow pencil, this technique adds fullness and defines your brows shape.
• Lip Blushing: This service brings back the youth in your lips' color and shape, creating contour and fullness.
• Enhanced Lashline: This service makes your eyes look awake and enhances your eye color and shape, reducing the time you spend on makeup.
