Permanent makeup isn’t a regulated industry in some countries, so your best option is to go for word of mouth referrals, or – if you don’t have that luxury – check your practitioner’s qualifications and level of experience and look online at their reviews and social media.

The length of time your permanent makeup lasts hinges on what you have done and how well you care for your skin. Microblading and permanent eyeliner last 1-3 years, lip blushing lasts 3-5 years, scar camouflage lasts 2-5 years, and freckle tattoos can last for up to 10 years. You’re likely to need touch-ups for all permanent makeup treatments.

Permanent makeup (cosmetic tattooing) uses pigments deposited into the skin to create long-lasting cosmetic effects. Common treatments include microbladed or powder brows, eyeliner tattooing, lip blushing, and areola tattooing. Results are semi-permanent, fading gradually over 1-3 years.

Some countries don’t regulate permanent makeup as an industry, so for your own peace of mind on safety, do your research. Check your practitioner’s qualifications and experience: look at online reviews, and ensure they work in a clean, safe environment. If you’ve got a specific medical condition or have some upcoming medical treatment booked, you may want to ask your doctor if it’s safe for you to go ahead with a micropigmentation procedure. As with all tattoos, there’s a risk of allergic reactions, scarring, and infection.

Most permanent makeup lasts 1-3 years before significant fading. Factors including skin type, sun exposure, skincare products, and pigment colour affect longevity. Annual colour refreshes maintain the result. A touch-up at 6-8 weeks after the initial treatment is standard.
