Achieving the perfect eye-catching look with well-defined and full eyebrows is the dream of many women. In recent years, two popular methods have emerged to fulfill this desire: semi-permanent makeup and microblading. While microblading has gained significant recognition, semi-permanent makeup offers several advantages that make it the better choice. In this article, we will explore the reasons why semi-permanent makeup is superior to microblading.
Enhancing your natural arch
Semi permanent makeup for eyebrows, often referred to as eyebrow microblading or shading, is a specialized technique that involves depositing pigment into the upper layers of the skin. It aims to create natural-looking, fuller, and more symmetrical eyebrows. Unlike traditional eyebrow makeup, which requires daily application, semi permanent makeup offers a longer-lasting solution.
How does it work?
During the procedure, I use a fine handheld tool to create hair-like strokes or shading in the brow area. The pigment is carefully chosen to match your natural hair color and skin tone, ensuring a seamless and realistic result. The process is meticulous, taking into account factors like your facial structure and personal preferences, to create eyebrows that beautifully complement your features.
Benefits of semi permanent makeup
1. Longevity: Semi-permanent makeup lasts longer compared to microblading. While microblading typically lasts between 6 to 12 months, semi-permanent makeup can maintain its effect for up to 2 years. This means less time and money spent on regular touch-ups.
2. Natural Appearance: Semi-permanent makeup can achieve a more natural look than microblading. The technique allows for fine lines that mimic the natural hair structure of eyebrows, resulting in a softer and more realistic appearance.
3. Versatility: Semi-permanent makeup offers greater versatility in options. While microblading mainly aims to enhance the shape and density of eyebrows, semi-permanent makeup allows for the addition of color to provide more definition. It can also be used to define lip contours or enhance the lash line.
4. Control: Semi-permanent makeup is performed by professional technicians who have specialized training and experience. This ensures precise control over color selection, shape, and pigment placement. In contrast, microblading can be more challenging to control as it is manually done using a handheld tool.
5. Minimal Discomfort: Semi-permanent makeup is often less painful compared to microblading. While microblading involves the use of a manual blade, semi-permanent makeup is applied using an electric device, minimizing discomfort. Many technicians also use numbing creams to reduce any potential discomfort during the procedure.
6. Safety: Semi-permanent makeup is conducted under strict hygienic conditions. The pigments used are made from high-quality, safe ingredients and are allergy-tested. Professional technicians employ sterile needles and disposable materials to minimize the risk of infections or allergic reactions.
You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.
Overall, semi-permanent makeup offers a more long-lasting, natural, and versatile solution for perfect eyebrows and other facial areas. The precise control, reduced discomfort, and higher safety standards make it the superior choice over microblading. However, it is important to consult with a qualified technician and discuss your individual needs before deciding on either method.
