1. What happens during a semi-permanent makeup procedure? The consultation process Prior to the enhancement procedure you will receive a comprehensive consultation during which you will have the opportunity to discuss the results you wish to achieve and how permanent make-up can enhance your appearance. If there is a specific look that you particularly like, you should bring with you magazine pictures indicating that look, as this will help you communicate your preferences to the permanent make- up artist. As an expert in the field of colour analysis and makeovers your permanent make-up artist will identify the micro-pigmentation shades that work with your hair, skin and eye colour. She will also analyze your facial shape and features to determine the most complimentary look for your individual requirements. Using conventional cosmetics your permanent make-up artist will also create your unique look visually so that you can approve the enhancement before the micro-pigmentation pigments are infused into your skin. This ensures the finished result is exactly what you want.
