When we aim for beauty instead of perfection- great things will happen 😍 combo brows
This client had much darker hair when I originally did her Nano Hair-strokes so today we won’t be going any darker- we’ll just be warming the color up since it’s cooled into a more ashy color over the year.
It’s not often that I remember to take content of healed results- usually when my clients come in it’s when they’re more faded away than this and really due for the touch-up.
Permanent makeup is mean to be able to fade away over time- but everyone has different skin and therefore a different timeline!
Mmm fresh lip blush!
Client desired a slightly more bold look, after chatting with her during our consultation it seemed like a good idea to do a bit more natural than how she usually does her makeup. Now she can wake up with a natural on-the-go look and still use makeup if she wants to go more bold! We love versatility!!

Ombre powder brows 😏
Sorry guys for being MIA and hoarding all my before and afters for myself. Trying to post more often 😅
Trends come and go but it’s undeniable that the right eyebrows can make or break the aesthetic balance of your face.
Good eyebrows will never go out of style.

Color correction on botched work 🫣
This is one of my proudest jobs I’ve done so far. Before my client found me she unfortunately went to a permanent makeup artist who was charging cheap prices and had no knowledge on how to work on different skin types, leaving her lips discolored and patchy.
I think it’s safe to say that we are both over the moon happy about how they turned out!

This cutie wanted combo brows to compliment her pin-up style
Thin brows are back in??
As we all know, brow trends come and go and recently I’ve been getting clients asking me to go thinner!
If you’ve ever been my client you know that I prioritize two things. 1.) that your results are going to look and heal naturally, the goal is to make it look like they’re your real brows! And 2.) That my client is getting what THEY want.
If you come in to my studio asking for thin brows, more than likely I will make that happen for you, as long as it will suit your face and will look natural and balancing for your features ❤️

We found the most flattering color and shape for her lips 👄
Lip blushing is so fun and definitely my favorite thing to do right now!
