Welcome to perfect eyebrows around the clock!
With eyebrow microblading, you’ll wake up and go to sleep feeling beautiful, and you’ll get hours of your life back from the hassle of drawing and filling in your eyebrow makeup! You’ll no longer worry about your eyebrows coming off in the pool or in a workout session, or anywhere. With new confidence and more time, our clients rave about how life-changing this procedure is!
What issues does eyebrow microblading solve?
Eyebrow issues are common – the causes vary from eyebrows being over-tweezed, under-tweezed, medical conditions, injury or the natural aging process. If you’ve lost your eyebrows or have patchy hair growth you know first-hand how it affects your overall appearance and self-confidence. Achieving natural-looking eyebrows using makeup pencils and eyebrow powders is a challenge, which is time consuming and has to be repeated many times a day. With microblading, your eyebrows will be professionally styled every day and stay that way!
What is microblading?
Eyebrow microblading is one of the hottest beauty trends in the US, being touted by celebrities and covered in publications like Marie Claire, Allure, InStyle, Cosmopolitan and Elle. Unlike eyebrow “tattooing” microblading is a semi-permanent cosmetic technique used for creating and filling in eyebrows. A sterilized handheld microblade tool applies pigment with a row of thin needles to inject pigment under the very top layer of skin. No damage is done to the hair you currently have nor does this procedure impact your hair growth. Pigment is inserted into just the dermal layer of the skin, therefore it’s far less painful than a tattoo and will fade within in 1-3 years. This is perfect because facial shapes and eyebrow trends are constantly changing!
The microblading process
Your permanent makeup technician will customize the eyebrow shade and thickness best suited for you using a wide range of high quality hypoallergenic, sterilized, permanent makeup pigments. Your technician will also take time to get to know you, your lifestyle and personality so that she can appropriately help to choose the best look and style for your needs. Before the procedure begins, the technician will answer any questions and concerns, discuss brow shape, size, color, etc. An outline of the brow will be done with pencil, allowing you to agree on the best color and shape prior to the actual application.
To keep discomfort to a minimum, anesthetic creams are used before and during the procedure. The entire process takes only 2-3 hours and there is no down time. A touch up is required at 4 to 6 weeks and costs $150.
Pigment retention depends on skin type, age, aftercare, sun exposure, use of certain skin products, pigments used, immune system, medications, lifestyle and other factors. Touch ups are recommended every 1-2 years to prevent natural fading. Please note that not every skin type is ideal for microblading at which point the technician will discuss doing powder brows as an alternative.

For the most natural look, you may want to try an eyelash base enhancement. This service involves applying pigment to the skin at the base of the lashes, between the rows of individual hairs. This differs from permanent eyeliner in that no obvious line is drawn beyond the last row of lashes. The effect is that of fuller, thicker, and darker lashes. This service is popular with men and women looking to enhance eye definition without the appearance of makeup.
Who is an eyelash base enhancement good for?
If you don’t wear a lot of makeup, but feel like you look “washed out” without it, an eyeliner or eyelash enhancement is perfect for you. Only a very small amount of eyeliner color will be deposited throughout your natural lash line to make you appear as if your eyelashes are lush and dark. A touch up is required at 4-6 weeks and costs $50.

If you’ve had a mastectomy or another type of breast surgery, or if you have irregular, fading, of faded areolas, J Marie Skin Studio can restore or enhance the look of your breasts. And, for many women and men, that translates to restored confidence.
Areola re-pigmentation is a specialty area of permanent cosmetics, sometimes referred to as a paramedical procedure. It requires advanced education, extensive training, and experience. That’s especially true with today’s 3D techniques, which produce astonishingly realistic results.
AREOLA/NIPPLE RESTORATION
If you have suffered a lumpectomy or mastectomy, you may need to have one or both areolas and nipples recreated. At J Marie Skin Studio, our highly skilled artists are masters at applying micropigmentation, playing with light and shadows to achieve a 3D effect or the illusion of a protruding nipple. For a unilateral mastectomy, our artists take great care in matching the new areola/nipple to the existing. For bilateral mastectomy patients, our artists work with you to design and create both areolas and nipples. This type of complex areola simulation can be achieved with or without a nipple “button” created by your surgeon. Areola/nipple restoration is usually done a minimum of 6 months after surgery and may require more than one visit to achieve the best results.
Each year, J Marie Skin Studio offers a certain number of complimentary areola/nipple restorations to cancer survivors, please contact us for details.

Powder Brows are a type of permanent makeup that uses machine shading techniques versus manually applied hair strokes. This creates a soft powdery look that mimics makeup. Typically the tail of the brow is the darkest and lightens to the front of the brow creating an ombre effect. Powder brows are great for most clients, especially those with mature and/or oily skin as well as those who have had previous permanent brows.
Who are Powder Brows Good For?
Powder brows are great for any age and any skin type! Powder brows tend to last longer than microblading and leave the skin in a strong, healthy state. Powder brows, on average, last around 2-4 years before needing a touch up. This option is great for anyone who has troublesome skin such as oily, dry or aged skin or for those who have very little to no hair. One of our technician's favorite looks is a combination brow, which is a combo of the powder brow + hair strokes throughout the head and body of the brow to give definition, texture and an overall realistic 3D look. This option is also recommend if you are covering up old permanent makeup that has possibly faded, scarred or changed colors. This is a good option for anyone who has tried microblading in the past, but felt the pigment never took or simply did not stay visible long enough.
The Powder Brow Process:
The process is the exact same as microblading except a different tool is used to actually apply the pigment into the skin. Once the shape and color is agreed upon, your technician will begin implanting the pigment with a quiet and gentle tattoo machine. No loud buzzing or crazy vibrations here!

Say hello to perfectly defined eyes all day and night!
From professionals to athletes to busy moms, more and more people are discovering the advantages of using permanent eyeliner. It enhances your appearance, saves valuable time, and most of all, it will never smear or rub off your skin!
How is permanent eyeliner done?
Your technician will first consult with you to get to know your lifestyle, personality and to find out what you want in your eyeliner look. Whether you’re looking for a subtle contour to accentuate your eyes or a dramatic cat eye look, our PMU artist can do it all. She will advise you on all the options, including color, shape and thickness. You’ll discuss where you’d like the eyeliner: top, bottom or both. Eyeliner will be drawn in pencil first to simulate how it will look when done for your approval.
You will be numbed with topical anesthesia cream to minimize any discomfort. Your technician will use a micropigmentation tool to carefully infuse eyeliner pigments into your skin. Because the pigment only goes into the dermal layer of your skin, eyeliner will fade in 1-5 years. How long your eyeliner stays greatly depends on your age, skin type, lifestyle, health, etc. A touch up is required at 4-6 weeks and costs $75 for top or bottom and $100 for both.
There’s no downtime after your 1-2 hour procedure and you’ll immediately get to enjoy the benefits of having eyeliner that never smears or rubs off even through watery eyes, perspiration, sleep and the weather!

The key to a more confident smile. The key to sexy, smudge-free lips.
There’s no other makeup ritual that has to be repeated as often as the reapplication of lipsticks, liners and glosses. It smears off eating, drinking, sweating, kissing your baby, or just by talking! Permanent lip blushing frees you from the nuisance of reapplying lipstick ten times a day, and the embarrassment of lipstick coming off on everything from mugs to a special someone’s face. Lip blushing shapes and defines your natural lip line as well as enhances your natural lip color, giving your lips a healthy, sexy appearance.
Who is lip tinting good for?
This procedure is great for people with a natural lip color that is so similar to their face color that they appear washed out without lipstick on. It is also great for those with uneven or undefined lips. Lip blushing can help to cover scarring, de-emphasize age lines, correct color, add definition and fullness, plus you can still wear lipstick whenever you want! Lip tinting does not impact the color or application of lipsticks, you simply get the benefit of your lips looking fabulous during those times you don't feel like wearing lipstick.
The lip tinting procedure
The experienced permanent makeup artists at J Marie Skin Studio are adept in the art and science of designing the correct and perfect lip shape. Your procedure will start with a consultation. She’ll look at your face and lip shape and advise where your lip line should be. Together, with over 20 hypo-allergenic pigments, you’ll custom blend the perfect shade – whether that’s a “just-bitten” barely there stain to a more bold look. She’ll draw in your shape and color with pencil and once agreed upon you simply lay back and let her work her magic!
You’ll be numbed by a topical anesthetic for minimum discomfort, and your technician will use a micropigmentation pen to artistically create your new perfect lips. Because the “tattoo” is only going into the dermal layer of your skin, it will fade in 1-2 years. This semi-permanence is ideal because lip and facial shapes change over time, as do lip style trends. A touch up is required at 4-6 weeks and costs $100.

Permanent lip liner is simply a mild form of tattoo that’s placed on the lips. It’s the implementation of color around the vermilion border of the lips, where often, as we age, the contrast and definition of a youthful looking lip has flattened and faded. This makes the lips seem as if they’ve disappeared.
Add Who is Lip Liner good for?
This treatment is great for anyone who is used to wearing makeup and likes to use pencil, lipstick and gloss, but wants to keep the time and effort to a minimum. It is also for someone who has had their lip color and definition fade out or their border flatten over time. We also recommend it for those with significant asymmetries since the technique can add balance. A touch up is required at 4-6 weeks and costs $100.

For Eyeliner:
Do not wear contact lenses during eyeliner procedure. Remember to bring your glasses. You may resume wearing your contact lenses the following day.
For Lips:
Try to hydrate lips as much as possible prior to procedure. The more hydrated your lips, the less peeling you will experience after the procedure.
The Day After: When your new makeup is completed it will appear very dark and bold. This is temporary. You are seeing pigment in both layers of your skin (epidermis and dermis). The top layer of your skin sheds and renews itself every few days and with this natural process the pigment in the top layer will peel off. This initial DARK look will not last. Only the color in the dermis (second layer of skin) will be long-lasting. If you are happy with your new permanent cosmetic color and darkness when you leave your first session, then you will be unhappy within one to three weeks. We want it to feel too dark at first. For this reason it is important for you to be patient and let your skin heal and to have trust in the process. The first application is to “saturate” the desired area to be pigment and to build a foundation. Your second visit is to shape, smooth, perfect and enhance the permanent makeup. This is why the touch up appointment at 4-6 weeks out is non-negotiable and must happen in order for your permanent makeup to retain and look its best.
For the first 2-3 days following permanent makeup applications you will have swelling, redness and tenderness in the area of your newly applied makeup. It is important to pamper your new makeup and keep a protective layer of ointment over the affected area. This prevents scab formation and drying, which can “lift out” the newly implanted color. It is normal for you to experience flaking of the skin with the brows and eyeliner. Lip pigmentation may flake or actually peel. Again, do NOT pick at any skin flaking or peeling off.
The treated area should be surface healed within 5 - 7 days however some individuals may take longer. For this reason it is crucial to treat the area as an open wound and be very cautious about keeping it clean. Again, when you leave the appointment, the color may likely be a shade too dark and in 3 to 5 days it might look too light. In a week to 10 days following your treatment the true color will begin to show more. Treated area should be surface healed within 5 —7 days however some individuals may take longer. It is NORMAL to lose approximately 30-40% of the color during the eyebrow healing process. When you leave today, the color may be a shade too dark, and in 3 to 5 days it will look too light. In a week to 10 days following your treatment the color will begin to show more.
Touch-Up Visit: This is exactly what the name implies. The goal of this visit is to fill in any areas that need enhancement. Often this is areas that have healed with a loss of pigment. Every person is unique, and we cannot predict how your makeup will appear. Some people hold pigment really well, while others tend to fade more. Rest assured that I will do my very best to make you happy with your investment in permanent makeup. Your cooperation is vital and appreciated!
