Temporary Tattoo

The semi permanent makeup procedure has been gaining popularity over the past several years.  People who have gotten semi permanent makeup swear by it, and a growing interest in the procedure has been firmly established. 

The semi permanent makeup procedure works differently than permanent makeup and tattoo procedures.  Only the shallow layer of skin is affected by semi permanent makeup.  Tattoo procedures and permanent makeup work deeper into the dermis, or skin layers, to create a much more lasting effect that does not fade.  Without touch-ups, semi permanent makeup only lasts between two and five years.  Touch-ups are recommended every one to two years, for long-lasting results. 

The women who get semi permanent makeup are often middle aged.  With age, comes the fading of our lips and skin.  Semi permanent makeup can help to bring the youthful appearance back without the time consuming makeup application.  It also assures that the look will be natural and without any chance of smudges or streaks.  Many athletes, busy moms, and executives are also getting semi permanent makeup, as it cuts down on the time spent getting ready in the morning.

The cost of semi permanent makeup depends on where you go to get it done and what you are hoping to accomplish.  The procedure starts at $500, again, depending on what type of work you want to have done and which facility you have chosen.  The prices may seem like a lot of money, but if you think of the many expenses you currently have pertaining to your beauty, it may not seem like that much.  You will be saving money on your makeup and treatments (sometimes monthly or weekly), which could actually save you some money in the long run.
