wake up like this! Permanent makeup is like a real-life filter. Here’s how to look flawless. every. single. day. Words by AimÉe Rodrigues 72 www.cosbeauty.com.au
Enhancement Bold brows and makeup applied to perfection have taken centre stage in fashion consciousness. To rock the flawless look (no effort required), look no further than cosmetic tattooing. It allows you to wake up made up, without spending any time slaving away over your makeup. You can sleep, swim, shower and play sports and still look fabulous. We chat with expert cosmetic tattooist and trainer Rita Porreca, owner and founder of the Sydney Permanent Makeup Centre in Five Dock. Is a cosmetic tattoo like a regular tattoo? Yes and no. It’s basically the same procedure but with different results. The difference is the depth of the needle inserted into your skin, plus the colours used in cosmetic tattooing are semi-permanent. How is it performed? All procedures are drawn on first with a pencil to the desired shape. Once the area to be tattooed is prepared, it is cleaned with antiseptic, and a topical anaesthetic is applied. A needle is then used to shallowly insert the pigment under your skin. Needles are disposed of after each use and all equipment is fully sterilised by an autoclave. What are the pigments used? The pigments used contains oxide, alcohol, distilled water and glycerine. They are non-toxic, non-reactive and specially manufactured to be used on human skin. They do not contain iron and do not discolour the surrounding skin. There is a large range of pigment colours to choose from; all pigments are non-irritating which is great if you are allergic to regular makeup. The pigments fade over time, which is perfect for cosmetic tattooing – what you like today you may not like in years to come! What does it look like on the skin? It looks as if you applied a pencil; a little softer and more muted. The colour immediately after the treatment will be stronger, but you will lose approximately 20 to 40 percent of intense colour during the healing process within four to 14 days. How long will a cosmetic tattoo last? Depending on your skin tone and the area you are tattooing, anywhere from two to four years. You can have refresh touch-ups in between to keep it looking beautiful. what areas can i tattoo? Eyebrows There can be gaps in your eyebrow, sometimes due to scarring, and sometimes a more defined, thicker or darker eyebrow is preferred. This procedure is also good if you’ve overplucked your eyebrows or if you suffer from alopecia. Colour is tattooed to your desired shape, framing your eyes with a more defined shape. Eyeliner Eyeliner tattoo can give you a permanent made-up look. The whites of your eyes look whiter and brighter, and no more running or non-existent eyeliner halfway through the day. You can sleep, swim, exercise and still look well-groomed and glam any time of the day. Eyeliner will be designed to your eye shape. You can also choose to have an eyeshadow “smudge” to create a smoky effect at the outer corners of the eyes. Lips Lip tattooing enhances the shape of your mouth and looks great with or without gloss or lipstick. If you have no definite lip shape, pale lips, sun-damaged lips, uneven lips or lips that have lost shape as a result of cold sores or injury, you can use this procedure to give them a definite lip shape or simply to emphasise or enlarge the look of your mouth. There’s a wide range of colours to choose from, ranging from lightest to darkest shades. The end result is like a lip tint – but one that won’t wipe or kiss off. Medical tattooing Cosmetic tattooing is not only carried out on the face; it is also used to camouflage burns and scars, as well as recreate the appearance of an areola (as part of a breast reconstruction after mastectomy).
