Lip Blush
Gain symmetry and a blush of color with this machine technique for the lips. Bringing subtle warmth, definition, and color back to the lip area! Lips should be in good condition before this treatment, with no chapped areas. If prone to cold sores, fever blisters, or mouth ulcers, Valtrex needs to be taken two days before, day of, and 7 days after treatment as this will trigger a flare up. This is not an option! Cold sores will result in loss of pigment in that area and incredibly poor healed results. All other clients are recommended to take Lysine for 2 weeks before the treatment as a precaution. Lip blush is excellent if you get lip filler, as filler can make the lips look like they are drained of color. Wake up with perfectly blushed lips every morning! No more smeared lipstick or bleeding lip liner! All lip blush procedures are done with a full consultation about desired shape and color.
PLEASE READ all of our policies and FAQ below to ensure you are a good candidate for this service. Price is $600-$650 and results last 2-5 years. This price includes a touch up session booked 10 weeks after your initial appointment. The touch up will be booked at the time of your first session.
Powder Brows
A soft, semi-permanent tattoo technique for the brows that uses a machine to achieve these results. Powder brows give a filled-in, makeup effect with no hair strokes added. Brow shape is mapped out according to your facial features with your desired results in mind. Best for clients looking for a more defined brow or those who wear brow makeup every day. A powder brow is also perfect for clients with a lot of hair missing from the brow area, clients with mature skin (over 55), or clients with oily skin.
PLEASE READ all of our policies and FAQ below to ensure you are a good candidate for this service. Results last 2-4 years. The price is $600-$650 and this includes a touch up session scheduled 8 weeks after your initial session. The touch up will be booked at the time of your first session.
Nano Brows
Nano brows is a technique that gives the same natural look of Microbladed strokes but is done with a cosmetic tattoo machine. The difference is simple, since it is done with a needle cartridge and not a manual blade, it is less traumatic for the skin and better for all skin types (including oily-combination or mature skins). The color retention is much better and the results will last longer than traditional Microblading. If you are over age 55, it is recommended that you get this service or the powder brow.

Microblading
Microblading is a semi-permanent tattoo procedure where pigment is implanted in the skin using a manual tool containing very small needles arranged in a blade. Hair-like strokes are drawn on with the blade to mimic the hairs in your brows, creating a natural result.
With the new technology available, we no longer recommend or offer the classic micro blading service. We instead recommend booking a Nano Brow appointment for the same look with a better technique and longer lasting results.
PLEASE READ all of our policies and FAQ below to ensure you are a good candidate for this service. The price for Microblading is $600 and results last 1-3 years. Price includes a touch up booked 8 weeks after your initial session. The touch up will be booked at the time of your first session.
Combo Brow
A combination of machine shading and hair strokes, this technique achieves it all! Brows are mapped according to your facial features with your desired results in mind. A manual tool is used to create natural looking hair strokes throughout the eyebrow. We then add machine shading to fill in sparse areas and add that beautiful, soft powdery look. Great for clients who have no hair left on their brows, clients who still do, and everyone in between. This service truly is a crowd pleaser!
PLEASE READ all of our policies and FAQ below to ensure you are a good candidate for this service. The price for Combo Brows is $600-650 and results will last 2-5 years. Price includes a touch up session 8 weeks after your initial appointment. The touch up will be booked at the time of your first session.
Eyeliner
No more smeared eyeliner or uneven makeup. Enhance your eyes with a semi-permanent tattoo right along the lash line to make the eyes POP! Multiple options are available to ensure you get the results you are looking for. We provide a Lash Line Enhancement which is a delicate tattoo right along the lash line. This tattoo is for those looking for a natural look while adding a thick appearance to their lashes. We also offer Classic Liner which is a thicker, winged liner. This tattoo looks like liquid liner for a beautiful defined look. And lastly, Smokey Liner which is an eyeliner tattoo with a smokey edge that heals more like a powder for a beautiful, soft result!
Price is $350-400 and the results last 1-4 years. This price includes a touch up booked 8 weeks after your initial session. The touch up will be booked at the time of your first session.
