Professional microblading, powder brows, lip blushing, and combination brow treatments — precise, personalised, and built to last.

Pricing and booking

Permanent makeup is the art of enhancing your natural features with precision pigmentation that lasts for years. Whether you’re drawn to the hair-stroke realism of microblading, the soft definition of powder brows, or the warmth and fullness of lip blushing — every treatment begins with a thorough consultation and ends with results tailored to your face, your colouring, and your lifestyle.

Microblading Includes touch-up session

Microblading is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing technique that uses a ultra-fine manual blade to hand-draw individual hair strokes in the skin, depositing pigment at a shallow depth for a remarkably natural result. It is the ideal permanent makeup choice for those who want brows that look like their own — just fuller, more defined, and perfectly shaped. Results typically last 12–18 months, with an annual touch-up recommended to maintain shape and saturation. Explore our full treatment menu or book a consultation to discuss if microblading is right for your skin type.

Includes
  • Consultation & face mapping
  • Custom brow design
  • Topical numbing
  • Manual hair-stroke application
  • Pigment colour matching
  • Touch-up session (6–8 weeks)
  • Aftercare kit
Ideal For
  • Normal to dry skin types
  • Sparse or thin brows
  • Those wanting a natural look
  • Filling in gaps and bare patches
  • Defined but soft brow shape
Powder Brows Includes touch-up session

Powder brows — also known as ombre brows or powder ombre brows — use a digital machine to create a soft, diffused, filled-in effect that mimics the look of brow powder or pencil makeup. The result is a polished, defined brow with a gradient effect: lighter at the front and gradually deeper toward the tail. Powder brows are exceptionally long-lasting, often lasting 2–3 years, and are well-suited to all skin types — including oilier complexions where microblading tends to fade faster.

Includes
  • Consultation & face mapping
  • Custom brow shape design
  • Topical numbing
  • Machine shading technique
  • Pigment colour selection
  • Touch-up session (6–8 weeks)
  • Aftercare kit
Ideal For
  • All skin types including oily
  • Those who love a defined brow
  • Makeup-look brow wearers
  • Longer-lasting results

Combination Brows Includes touch-up session

Combination brows blend the best of both worlds — the realistic hair-stroke texture of microblading at the front of the brow with the soft powder shading of ombre brows through the body and tail. The result is a full, dimensional brow with natural-looking texture at the arch and lasting depth throughout. This is our most versatile permanent brow treatment, flattering on nearly every face shape and skin type.

Includes
  • Consultation & face mapping
  • Custom hybrid brow design
  • Topical numbing
  • Hair-stroke front sections
  • Machine shading through body & tail
  • Touch-up session (6–8 weeks)
  • Aftercare kit
Ideal For
  • Most skin types
  • Those wanting texture and depth
  • Full, dimensional brow look
  • Natural front with defined tail
  • First-time permanent makeup clients

Lip Blushing Treatment Includes touch-up session

Lip blushing is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattoo treatment that deposits soft, translucent pigment into the lips to enhance their natural colour, improve symmetry, and create the appearance of fuller, more defined lips — without filler. The effect is a beautifully flushed, just-bitten look that wakes up your face and eliminates the need for daily lip liner and lipstick. Results typically last 2–5 years depending on skin type, lifestyle, and sun exposure. A touch-up at 6–8 weeks is included to perfect the shape and deepen the colour to your ideal tone. Pair your lip blushing treatment with our powder brows for a complete, effortless look — or explore our skin care services to complement your results.

What the healing looks like Days 1–3: Lips appear darker and slightly swollen — this is completely normal. Days 4–7: Colour begins to soften and peel naturally. Weeks 2–4: True healed colour emerges, often 30–50% softer than initial application. Final results are assessed at your touch-up appointment.

Healing & Aftercare

  • Do not exfoliate the area
  • Attend your touch-up appointment
Touch-Up & Longevity

A touch-up appointment at 6–8 weeks is included with every permanent makeup service and is a critical part of the process — not optional. During healing, some areas may fade unevenly or lose saturation. The touch-up allows your artist to refine the shape, build colour, and ensure a flawless, lasting result. Annual colour refreshes are recommended to keep your permanent makeup looking its best over time.

Is it painful?

A topical numbing cream is applied before every permanent makeup treatment, making the experience comfortable for the vast majority of clients. Most describe the sensation as mild pressure or a light scratching feeling. Sensitivity varies by individual and treatment area — lips tend to be slightly more sensitive than brows.

How long does it last?

Longevity varies by technique and skin type. Microblading lasts 12–18 months. Powder brows and combination brows last 2–3 years. Lip blushing lasts 2–5 years. Factors such as sun exposure, skincare product use (especially retinoids and acids), skin type, and metabolism all affect how quickly pigment fades.

Can I choose my colour and shape?

Absolutely. Every treatment begins with a thorough consultation where we map your ideal shape using your bone structure and facial proportions as a guide, and select a custom pigment blend matched to your natural colouring, hair tone, and desired result. No needles touch your skin until you have approved the shape and colour.

What if I have existing permanent makeup?

If you have previous microblading, tattoo brows, or lip work, please send a photo prior to your consultation. In many cases we can work over existing pigment, but this depends on the colour, saturation, and placement of your prior treatment. A consultation is always required before booking a correction or colour refresh.

Beautiful, effortless brows and lips — designed around you, built to last, and tailored to your features from the very first consultation.
