Permanent Makeup
by Sarah Smith

We do our best to ensure that you’re comfortable throughout your treatment and most of our clients report it is actually very relaxing and wonder why they were worried about it!

We use anaesthetic beforehand and during and can top these up if required but as with any treatments where the skin is broken, you might feel more sensitive if you are unwell or during your menstrual cycle (if applicable).

Any tenderness subsides quickly after the treatment and you will be able to work and carry on as normal after the treatment, although it is best to keep the area clean and dry so it heals well.

You are welcome to come back any time you like for a refresh but most of our clients find that their permanent makeup lasts for at least 18 months before it needs a tweak or a top up, for eyeliner and lip treatments this is usually even longer!

The reason permanent makeup fades is because the pigment (ink) we use can be broken down by the body so it will fade over time. How quickly this happens is dependant on a number of factors including skin type and lifestyle so it is different for everyone.

Permanent makeup may seem expensive upfront but the cost is actually surprisingly reasonable compared to the repeated costs of treatments such as hairdressing, lash extensions or aesthetic injectables which need to be redone every few months!

We currently charge £395 for eyebrows, which is split into 3 payments – we take a deposit of £50 upfront to secure your appointment, a payment of £245 on the day of your first appointment and the final payment of £100 at your second appointment which takes place roughly 6-8 weeks after the first.

Eyeliner treatments cost £450, split into 3 payments – we take a deposit of £50 upfront to secure your appointment, a payment of £300 on the day of your first appointment and the final payment of £100 at your second appointment which takes place roughly 6-8 weeks after the first.

Lip treatments cost £450, split into 3 payments – we take a deposit of £50 upfront to secure your appointment, a payment of £300 on the day of your first appointment and the final payment of £100 at your second appointment which takes place roughly 6-8 weeks after the first.

We currently don’t offer any credit or payment plans.

This is a great question and one we know is important – especially when it comes to your face! Arguably the most important part of your treatment is the design process which takes place first and shows both Sarah and the client what she will be doing before she actually does it.

Sarah is very experienced in knowing what style will work best for her clients but fully understands that everyone has their own preferences so she will work carefully with you to make sure you are going to come away with the desired result. Sarah will predraw the design for you to see before doing the treatment for the first time, so that any tweaks or changes can be made and will explain the whole process to you as she does it so that you know exactly what to expect.

Most permanent makeup treatments fade around 40% after the initial treatment so you need to be prepared that it will look darker initially than the healed result. In most cases she will try to work conservatively for the first treatment, keeping the result lighter and softer so that you have the option to go darker and bolder at your second treatment if you would like to.

To hear what some of Sarah’s previous clients think about the process and result, feel free to check out the 100s of 5* reviews she has been given on Trustpilot, Facebook and Google.

Yes! Sarah has treated every age range from 18 up to 98, men and women and even people with complex medical needs and has worked with each of them to produce the right result. Each treatment is fully bespoke to the client and you will decide, with Sarah, what you’d like to achieve before the treatment takes place. Different styles work better on different skin types or to create a more natural or makeup inspired result, so the treatment will be tailored specifically to you to ensure it meets your needs.

If you have a specific look in mind before the treatment takes place, feel free to bring a picture of the kind of thing you like to your appointment to help with the design process.
