Semi-Permanent Make Up

WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM SEMI-PERMANENT MAKE-UP?

Semi-Permanent Make Up is a truly fantastic solution for those that desire more prominent eyebrows, fuller lips and or defined eyes, male or female. This treatment provides freedom from the daily application of conventional make-up, which is extremely liberating whatever the profession.

Here are some other examples of people who would benefit from Semi-Permanent Make-Up;

* Alopecia patients who have lost all or some of their facial hair, including eyebrows or eyelashes. A minimum of 2 appointments are needed.

* Chemotherapy patients who may loose facial hair before their chemotherapy treatment or after.

* Anyone who may suffer allergies with conventional makeup.

* Anyone who has unsteady hands and finds applying make-up difficult whether it's a confidence issue or through a medical condition such as Arthritis, Parkinson disease, or Multiple Sclerosis etc

* Visually impaired people who have difficulty applying make-up.

HOW LONG DOES SEMI-PERMANENT MAKE UP LAST?

Semi-Permanent Make Up should last anywhere between 18 months to 5 years depending on certain factors such as; age, health, medication, skin type and sun exposure. However, it is perfectly normal that over time colour will break down and fade which is why it is suggested to have a top up procedure within 3 months form the initial treatment, and then every 6 months to keep the look fresh.

Overall, the intensity of colour for all areas will last approximately 3-7 days. Within this time natural exfoliation occurs causing the pigment to fade by 40 - 60% and a lighter more natural colour will emerge over 4 - 6 weeks, by which time the top-up is due.

DOES SEMI PERMANENT MAKE-UP HURT?

No, the most that is felt is the vibration of the needle. Topical anesthetic is applied followed by a secondary anesthetic during treatment. This usually results in clients feeling perfectly comfortable and relaxed during the procedure.

IS SEMI-PERMANENT MAKE UP SAFE?

Yes, the strictest hygiene and sterilisation standards are adhered to. The machine used has a 2a medical certification and the treatment environment is set up to an A-septic standard. Only pre-packed brand new sterile cartridges are used for each client. For those that request a patch test, this is offered 1 week before the first procedure. If a reaction were to occur, it would be noticeable within 2 hours, however, 99.9% of people do not have any reaction at all.

HOW WILL I LOOK IMMEDIATELY AFTER TREATMENT?

Many people are able to carry on with their duties as normal whether it’s going back to work or going out to meet friends for lunch. However, it is to be expected that after the brow procedure they will appear quite dark and intense with colour. For the eyeliner treatment, eyes will appear slightly more swollen and for the lip treatment, lips will appear more swollen and colour intensified.

IMPORTANT FACTORS TO REMEMBER:

* You may resume back to normal activity straight after treatment

* Slight swelling will be gone within 2-3 days

* Slight flaking over the area during healing (which must not be touched)

* 40-60% of the pigment will fade after initial treatment

* Additional treatment needed after initial procedure 4-6 weeks later

* End results will be soft natural enhancement

* For those that suffer from the occasional cold sore, it is advised to start taking cold sore treatment before and after the lip treatment

CAN I HAVE AN MIR SCAN (MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING)?

Some clients may experience a tingling sensation and the pigments will show up on the scan. Therefore it is advised that you inform the MRI specialist beforehand.

CAN I HAVE FACIAL (HAIR) LASER TREATMENTS?

Once you've had Semi-Permanent Make Up it is advised that you avoid laser passing over the treated area, as it may alter the colour. Again, it is advised that you inform the laser specialist beforehand.

CAN I HAVE FACIAL INJECTIONS SUCH AS BOTOX AND OR DERMAL FILLERS?

Please note that when you have Semi-Permanent Make up, cosmetic injections such as Botox and or Dermal Fillers it must be done 6 weeks prior or 6 weeks post to the treatment.

CAN I HAVE A GLYCOLIC PEEL?

This must be done 1 weeks prior or 1 week post to Semi-Permanent Make Up.

All clients are provided with an after-care consultation following their treatment and given a comprehensive after-care guide.

Camilla is amazing at what she does. I love my eyelashes; they look great and nothing’s better than not having to put mascara on every day!

Kirstyg

Thank you for doing my lips, I love the colour and shape! I will admit that I was a bit worried that my lips would look big and swollen but they didn’t at all, in fact people just kept asking me what colour lipstick I was wearing! Even now I’ll just be wearing clear lip gloss and I receive so many compliments, it’s definitely a confidence booster. Anyway, thank you Camilla and I most definitely will be booking myself another semi permanent make-up treat with you in the new year!

I came to see Camilla last year before x-mas to get my eyeliner and lips done after a friend recommend her. I absolutely loved what she did for me and now highly recommend her to others. I was new to Semi -Permanent Make-Up and very nervous as I’m terrified of needles. Camilla answered all my questions and listened to all my concerns which was very reassuring. We looked at the colours together and discussed the benefits of each one against my skin and hair colour. Throughout the procedure, Camilla explained what she was doing at each stage always making sure that I was happy. It was a long procedure but absolutely worth every single penny! I have already booked in my top-up, a treat in advance!

I had my eyebrows tattooed by Camilla over a year ago now. She was so lovely, friendly and professional. I was extremely happy with the results and would highly recommend her. If I have any more treatments done I would definitely go to see Camilla at The Beautiful Society as I feel confident in her knowledge and ability.

Camilla made me feel very relaxed, very friendly and professional.

I found Camilla on her website. I liked the reviews about her and phoned. I had quite a long conversation and she took the time to explain the procedure for semi-permanent brows. I got an appointment the same day for a free consultation. She explained everything again, put me at ease with some of my concerns and took time to discuss what I wanted done. I then booked the actual treatment. On the day of the treatment, she went over single stage in detail making sure that I understood. The procedure was long but not painful. I liked the music which was very relaxing. Camilla is extremely methodical in her approach and because of this, I left with brand new perfectly symmetrical brows in a soft shade of brown that suited my skin tone.Camilla is a very skilled, diligent and professional technician. Her standards are high. Thank you Camilla.

Love, love, love The Beautiful Society!

First time with Camilla who did my lashes. What a nice experience! Camilla is the perfect combination of personal and professional. Fantastic energy and great lashes! I’ll be a regular no doubt!

Lauren

Always so happy with my lashes when I visit Camilla. I recommend the Beautiful Society to everyone!

Jamie B

I booked in with The Beautiful Society for the Novalash American Volume and found the whole process to be an absolute pleasure. Camilla was so patient and kind, making sure I was comfortable throughout the whole thing. My lashes look so hot and I can still go swimming without them falling out…whoop whoop! That makes a nice change!

Danielle Finch

I could not be happier with my Semi-Permanent eyebrows! I had a few questions before the treatment which I emailed Camilla. She replied in such detail and completely put my mind at ease. The treatment itself was great, Camilla is so professional and explains everything as she goes along. She is very precise and thorough! My results were great and now after my top-up treatment I couldn’t be happier with the results. I would highly recommend!!

JackieGD

After having had a previous unhappy experience with having semi-permanent make-up I found Camilla online. I liked what had been said already, so booked an appointment. She phoned me beforehand and we had a long discussion on what had happened and what I wanted, taking time to listen and she put me at ease. On the day she was welcoming and so easy to be with, she took a long time to discuss my wishes, she went over every point ensuring I understood and was happy with what she was about to do. She took her time checking and re-checking always making sure I was ok. The colour is perfect and I adore the shape! Camilla is a hidden gem!

Gemma Tabatha Hussey Court

Camilla is a total joy – very welcoming and professional she puts you at ease and gives you beautiful results. The Beautiful Society is a lovely relaxed place – will be back for other services.

Julie Holman

Camilla is absolutely lovely and took the time to explain all my options. Very happy with the end result.

I recently had Semi-Permanent eyeliner applied – I found the treatment a bit uncomfortable, but Camilla was very reassuring throughout and put me at ease. She was very professional, and I had a lot of confidence in her.

Would definitely recommend and go back.

Jacqueline

I waited an entire week before reviewing. Camilla is a fantastic lash therapist and takes wonderful care of her clients. She is thorough and meticulous with every lash and spent more time caring for me than any other therapist I’ve had in the last five years!! 5 star service! The Beautiful Society is worth coming back to 100%

An excellent treatment in a lovely setting. Camilla was through and really took her time with the consultation to make sure I understood my options and the process. The Beautiful Society is a great find too – cosy and welcoming.

Claire

Where do I start? Camilla is so kind, compassionate and thorough in her craft! I came to see Camilla after a series of unpleasant reactions to non-Novalash products. She took her time to understand my experience. Happily, I am back on Novalash and Camilla does an amazing job of applying a mix of lengths for a really natural look. I couldn’t be happier! Thanks Camilla! :)

I rate The Beautiful Society 5 stars.

Camilla was very friendly and professional and spent a great deal of time getting to understand exactly what I wanted with my eyelashes. She kept a record of all of my decisions so when I came back for infills, she knew exactly what to work with. I am delighted with the results.

Very pleased!

I’ve just had my eyeliner and brows done at The Beautiful Society after not being very happy with the results from another therapist I saw a few years before. To be honest I was a little put off by semi-permanent make-up but I needed a second opinion to see if it was possible to correct them as I was getting married. Camilla is so warm and friendly, I felt I was in safe hands with her from the very start! She really took the time to evaluate the previous work and explained how she would correct and improve them with demonstrations using eye and brow pencils. We looked at the colours together and mixed a few to get the correct balance of warmth. My eyeliner is perfection, I don’t know how she does it. My brows are also superb! I can see that I’ll need a top up at some point but at least I don’t have to draw them on every day!

Maryam Mahmood

Love her, so lovely and warm! Will put you at ease if slightly apprehensive. We decided to go for a natural looking beauty spot and that is exactly what I received. Been a few months and the colour has not faded. However, will pop back for recommended top-up.

Stephanie

Camilla was brilliant, friendly and warm in her manner, clearly explained everything and did a fabulous job, I’m chuffed to bits with the results.

AineG

I had my eyebrows done by Camilla earlier this year and I’m delighted with the results! I had previously had this done a few years ago elsewhere and was not 100% happy with that result, but Camilla was able to create a brand new shape and complexion. Camilla was really professional, warm and meticulous in the detail of my brows and I highly recommend her for any semi-permanent make-up work. Also, an extremely reasonable price for the quality of service and location.

Katie01

Had my eyebrows tattooed by Camilla last year and just had my top-up. I have to say she’s an amazing therapist! She made me feel very relaxed as I was nervous, very welcoming and friendly. She did a great job and I will be returning. Def 5 stars and worth every penny.

Really lovely, helpful and professional

Emma H

I highly recommend Camilla, she really knows her stuff! She gave me the most beautiful set of extensions that has really made me question the places I’ve been to in the past. Also, the CleanLash works miracles! Thanks again x

Monique

Had a fantastic treatment. Camilla was very professional and made me feel at ease as I was quite nervous beforehand. She was able to answer all my questions and the results of my lip treatment were amazing. Will definitely be returning.

Loretta

Camilla was absolutely lovely. We discussed what sort of look I was hoping to achieve and my lashes were gorgeous afterwards. The whole experience was totally relaxing, it’s a really nice room and Camilla has the lightest touch. I was extremely pleased with my lashes and all of the after care tips she gave. Thank you Beautiful Society.

JemimaB

Lash work carried out with care and Camilla is super friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Sharon Ni

Classic Novalash-perfect if you prefer a more natural look; easy to maintain because it is waterproof as well as oil-friendly. Camilla was lovely, she did an amazing job and will answer all your questions.

JML88

I had my eyebrows done by the lovely Camilla and they have given my naturally measly eyebrows the shape and definition I always wanted. Camilla is an expert in creating beautiful eyebrows the right shape and colour for you and really listened to what I wanted – natural looking hair-stroke brows. I felt like I was in really safe hands as Camilla explained what she was doing all the way and involved me in the colour choice even checking that I was happy at each step. The treatment room was beautifully clean and the aftercare Camilla offered was great too, she even contacted me the next day to see if I was well. Indeed I was, thank you Camilla for everything!

Jaya

Camilla was lovely and made me feel comfortable. Had a nice chat with her. She explained the treatments step by step and ensured me throughout the process. I would recommend Camilla at The Beautiful Society, she is professional and provides good customer service.

Whilst visiting my friend in London, I decided to treat myself to Semi-Permanent Make-Up. I “found” Camilla through The Beautiful Society. Camilla, thanks so much for the professional work on my eyes. I am very happy with my eyeliner (top and bottom)! Bless your steady hand and precision! You were so gentle and careful, constantly comforting me whilst working on my eyelids. It truly shows how professional and experienced you are. I also very much appreciated your consultation and guidance concerning the colour and the thickness of the eyeliner. It works very well because I am amazed how fine the line on the lower and upper lid is! Even after a few months, it has not worn off and still looks stunning. The other day I left the house and forgot to put on mascara. As I wanted to take it off in the evening I realised that there is nothing to take off! The eyeliner works so well, almost like I would be wearing mascara. I am very pleased I met you and trusted in your workmanship. As for the top-up. I definitely will see you for this one and contact you in due time.
