Your eyebrows are shaded perfectly, your lips lined flawlessly, and your eyes are lined beautifully—today you nailed your makeup! What could be better than a day of perfect makeup? How about several years of perfect makeup? Permanent makeup also known as micropigmentation is a cosmetic treatment in which pigment is added to the skin of your face with an ultra-thin needle, much like a tattoo. However, unlike a tattoo, permanent makeup tends to fade dramatically, eventually becoming undetectable, over time. It enhances your natural beauty by subtly giving features and shapes to your lips, eye brows and also save a lot of time on putting makeup. That is, despite its name, permanent makeup is not actually permanent, though it does last for 1 - 7 years depending on the individual. The typical permanent makeup or cosmetic tattooing include lip shading, lip lining, eyebrow shading, and eyeliner application (both top and bottom).
