BROWS, EYELINER AND LIPS

Microblading, Eyeliner Tattoo and Lip Blush in Santa Clara

Whether you are searching for microblading near San Jose, an eyeliner tattoo that stays put, or a lip blush with a soft natural flush, the process starts with a consultation. Janette studies your features, skin type and style before she chooses a technique and a color.

Brows usually settle over 7 to 10 days, and most clients enjoy their healed permanent makeup within about 8 to 10 days, although healing may continue for several weeks.

Here is what most clients want to know about each service:

  • Brows: permanent brows typically last 1 to 3 years, and maintenance sessions every 12 to 18 months keep them fresh
  • Eyeliner: Janette uses the SofTap manual method, which places pigment without a tattoo machine, and you avoid eye makeup for at least ten days afterward
  • Lips: lip blush typically lasts 12 to 18 months, and the final color shows about four weeks after treatment
  • Comfort: a topical numbing cream is applied before and during your appointment

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Permanent Makeup Questions

What is the difference between microblading and nano brows?

SofTap microblading is a manual hair-stroke technique that creates soft, natural-looking brows. Nano brows use a machine hair-stroke technique to create realistic, natural-looking strokes. Janette can help you decide which suits your skin and the look you want.

How soon will I see my final permanent makeup results?

Permanent makeup can look darker, bolder or less natural right after treatment. The pigment softens and sheds over the first several days, and most clients enjoy their healed results within about 8 to 10 days. Lip blush color is fully visible about four weeks after treatment.

What training does Janette have in permanent makeup?

Janette earned her makeup artistry certification from Elegance International Academy of Professional Makeup in Los Angeles in 1978 and founded Ambiance Esthetics in 1989. She has also trained with SofTap Permanent Cosmetic Academy, the American Institute of Intradermal Cosmetics and Evon Academy.

Can you fix brows or lips done by another artist?

Possibly. Text clear photos taken outdoors in natural light, with a front view and both side views, to (831) 251-7229 along with your name and the approximate date of your procedure. Janette reviews every submission before deciding whether corrective work is appropriate.

Do you offer permanent makeup near San Jose?

Yes. The Micropigment Studio is in Santa Clara, California, an eleven-minute drive from San Jose Mineta International Airport, and welcomes clients from San Jose and across the Bay Area.
