Permanent Makeup

Permanent Makeup is for everyone, regardless of their age, who wants an enhancement to their facial appearance. Permanent Makeup, also known as Permanent Cosmetics or Micro Pigmentation, is a safe alternative to the daily expense of putting liner on our eyebrows, lips, and eyes.

Permanent Lip Color is perfect for the person whose natural lip color has faded over time or for those who would like reshaping of the lips to make them look fuller and more defined. By accentuating the bow of the lip, we are able to bring back a more youthful look and appearance to your lips, thus enhancing your entire face.

Applied by an experience technician, permanent makeup will look more natural and realistic than traditional means of wearing makeup. Our permanent makeup or permanent cosmetic tattooing is performed at our offices in a warm, comfortable environment. We provide a relaxed approach to this procedure in order to help the client feel less stress and can have a more positive experience.

Janice, Scalise, the owner of Salon Definitions, is a micro Pigmentation Technician and has worked in this area for 7 years. For a free consultation or for additional information feel free to give us a call today.

Average cost for permanent makeup runs around $350.00 to $450.0 per procedure.

Testimony

"I have stopped using any lipstick since my lips have had permanent makeup applied to them five years ago. I just use a lip gloss to give a nice sheen to my lips."

Q.     Can permanent makeup ever look smudged after a period of time?

A.    Permanent makeup does not look smudged over a period of time.  One of the reasons permanent makeup is so popular is because it does keep its color and shape and can even last for years.  That is why women who have had permanent makeup procedures always say they wouldn’t trade their permanent makeup for anything.
