Permanent eyelines

Ideal eyelines have been a part of makeup for decades.

The problem is that you can’t draw them quickly, beautifully, or at least equally well. However, today such a problem can be solved quite easily. This kind of beauty treatment allows you to make a spectacular make-up, which will be with you day and night, in frost and heat, under any circumstances.

Permanent eyeliner is one of the most popular procedures in which safe hypoallergenic pigment is introduced under the skin.

Among the most popular varieties of such makeup, we have:

• Lash enhancement – subtle definition through the lash line with a soft blend. It looks as natural as possible, a great choice for too light or not thick eyelashes.
• Classic eyeliner - can be black, brown, less often choose dark blue and other exotic shades;
• Smokey eyeliner is obtained using point technique of pigment introduction and allows to create a makeup in the style of «smoky eyes»;
• Eyeshadow - a great choice for girls who do not want diversity in makeup.

It is important to remember that the creation of «smokey» effects requires high skill, and therefore it is worth taking very carefully the choice of the salon or studio, where you will perform permanent eye make-up.

Before performing the procedure, experienced masters recommend:

• Consult your doctor to ensure that there are no contraindications to such procedures;
• 24 hours before the date of the beauty treatment, remove alcohol and caffeine-containing beverages from the diet;
• do not take medications that promote blood thinning.

The permanent makeup procedure starts with the careful removal of cosmetic residues from the eyelids and eyelashes, as well as skin degreasing in the area where the pigment will be introduced. The master performs the sketch taking into account the individual features of the client’s appearance and wishes. Further actions are performed in such a sequence:

• Anesthetic gel or cream is applied on the eyelid area;
• The pigment is applied by a special device in a stroke or dotted manner;
• The remains of the sketch are removed.

While the client rests after the procedure, the master details the rules of aftercare for the eyelids after the procedure. It is important to remember that the desired effect will be achieved only in a few days, and a slight redness, swelling and peeling of the skin - a completely normal consequence of the popular beauty treatment. Such symptoms are not dangerous, and modern pharmacology makes it easy to eliminate possible discomfort. Don’t forget the sunglasses to keep your eyes from the bright light.

It is very important to adhere to all the recommendations of the master, carefully care for the skin of the eyelids.

Today, the choice of cosmetic and medical preparations is incredibly wide, and each master has his/her preferences, established on the basis of many years of experience. However, there are several rules that are important to know even before the procedure.

• On the first day, special care is required. The treatment area is treated with a safe antiseptic solution that does not irritate the skin.
• To eliminate swelling, you can use special ointments, the effectiveness of which will be higher if they are supplemented with cooling compresses.
• The use of antibacterial drops will help to relieve unpleasant sensations, redness and inflammation.
• Sauna, hot bath or outdoor swimming is strictly forbidden. It is also not necessary to moisturize the treatment area with tap water.
• Do not forget to apply cream or cooling gel if the master considers it to be necessary.
• Try to control yourself: during the healing period, you should not touch the eyelids, especially - intensively rub them. Specify in advance how to get rid of itching and other discomfort.

However, it is not necessary to wait for negative feelings: in the vast majority of cases, this procedure takes place without complications, and unpleasant feelings disturb the patient no more than three days.

Despite the continuous improvement of the technical basis and pigments used for permanent makeup, such a procedure cannot be carried out:

• when you have conjunctivitis;
• during pregnancy;
• diabetes mellitus patients;
• in case of inflammation;
• in case of dermatological diseases;
• in case of HIV infection;
• for epilepsy or mental illness.

Before you decide on the details of the procedure and choose the optimal type of permanent eyelid makeup, it is necessary to inform the master about your diagnosed, chronic or acute diseases.

Modern permanent makeup is not identical to tattoo, although such procedures have a lot in common.

The main difference is that such a makeup is not lifelong. After two years (even earlier) the brightness of the pigment and the clarity of your ideal eyelines will decrease. In order to know exactly when you need a correction, the master will ask you to come three weeks after the procedure. This is enough time to draw conclusions about the individual features of your skin and predict the time of repeated treatment.

However, there are signs that will allow you to realize for yourself that it is time to correct the permanent makeup of the eyelids. It is necessary to do this if colors have lost their brightness, defects have appeared, eyelines have become dull and blurred. Sometimes the reason for the repeated procedure can be non-compliance with the recommendations for aftercare or mistakes in the work of a specialist. To avoid unpleasant consequences, for the performance of permanent eyelines you should contact the studio or salon, whose reputation is undeniable.
