Permanent Makeup
What is Permanent Makeup (PMU)?
PMU has many different names; Micropigmentation, Semi-permanent makeup, Microblading and Cosmetic tattooing to name a few. I prefer to refer to it as Permanent as we can never be certain how long it will last in the skin.
PMU is a state-of-the-art technique, that permanently applies makeup via intradermal micropigmentation. A tattoo machine is used to implant pigments into the dermal layer of the skin. PMU is different to a tattoo as the pigment used isn’t implanted as deep into the tissues. PMU pigments are different to tattoo inks. Modern PMU pigments have come a long way in recent years and are now designed to fade and will need to be topped up every 12-24 months to keep the work fresh and sharp.
I personally use a PMU machine for my treatments. This is a pen style device, similar to what tattooists use. It operates at a much lower frequency allowing for a softer and more gentle experience.

What PMU treatments do I offer?
Eyebrows
-
Powder/Ombre- A shaded, soft powder effect, very similar to powder makeup.
-
Hairstroke - resembles natural eyebrows as single lines are implanted into the skin to resemble individual hairs.
-
Combination – this is literally a combination of individual hairstokes and soft powder shading.
​​
Eyeliner
Pigment is implanted into the lash line to give the appearance of eyeliner and can also be referred to as a lash enhancement.
​
Lips
Lip blush enhances and defines both the natural shape and colour of natural lips. It can help achieve a fuller lip without fillers. It is not possible to tattoo outside of the natural lip line known as the vermillion boarder.
Brows and Lashes
What is a Lash Lift?
A Lash Lift is cosmetic procedure using a chemical process that alters the shape of the natural eyelashes by enhancing them. After the treatment they will appear longer, thicker, fuller and more curled.
To begin with, I will stick down your lower lashes to enable me to separate them from your upper lashes. I will then carefully paint the lashes upwards onto a curling rod. Next, I will apply the products necessary to set your lashes into a new curled position. Finally I complete the look by tinting the upper lashes. (A patch test will be required at least 24hrs before your first treatment with me).
What is Brow Lamination?
Brow lamination is an eyebrow perming treatment that involves correcting the brow shape by setting the hairs in place using a chemical solution which will manipulate the hairs into a new position. This will create a beautiful, fuller looking brow.
I will begin by using a product that positions your hairs into their new ideal shape. Once you are happy with the positioning, I will apply the products to set them into their new shape. Following this I will tint your hairs to complement your hair and skin tone. Finally, I will wax and tweezer any unruly hairs to give them a nice tidy shape. (A patch test will be required at least 24hrs before treatment).

My Services - Reflexology
What is Reflexology?
Reflexology has become one of the most popular forms of complementary therapies practiced today. Reflexology is a holistic therapy that uses the feet to treat the whole body. Reflexology works on the whole person rather than the just one particular symptom. The feet are used as a map, or mirror of the whole body. By manipulating, massaging and applying pressure to certain parts of the feet, the whole body can be retuned and brought back into balance. Any part of the body can be accessed and stimulated by massaging the corresponding area on the feet or hands, this stimulates the body’s own healing processes, in order to keep it in homeostasis. It encourages both relaxation and stimulation, benefiting the body as a whole.
What can I expect from my first appointment?
We allow 90 minutes for the first appointment. Firstly, we will go through your medical and social history so we can begin to develop a treatment plan. You will then be asked to remove your shoes and socks and will be made comfortable for the treatment. We will then ‘read your feet’. Basically, we are looking for any contraindications for treatment. Also, we will be looking at things like the colour, temperature and flexibility of your feet. Your feet will then be cleansed ready to begin the Reflexology treatment. For this we will possibly use a wax to help glide over the surface. At the end of the session, we will discuss our findings and then provide aftercare advice and then possibly plan a course of treatment tailored for your individual needs.
