Why Permanent Liner Rocks.
Sure, eyeliner tattoos save you time, but they also mean a consistently sharp line that never smudges or fades throughout your day. You'll look put-together from sunrise to sunset.
Wake up to eyes that pop! This procedure brings out your natural shape and colour, giving you a sharp, lasting look while saving precious time.
Does Eyeliner Tattoo Hurt?
Before getting your eyeliner tattoo done, Nanna will put on a numbing cream to help with any discomfort.
While the process is typically considered painless, people who are sensitive or have a lower pain threshold may find it slightly uncomfortable. Most clients tell us they feel very little pain. In fact, many report no discomfort at all during the process.
What's the estimated time commitment for this? The eyeliner tattoo procedure typically takes about appox 90mins, incorporating a 15-20-minute numbing process. While a classic eyeliner tattoo or simple style may require less time, a bolder design like winged or cat-eye eyeliner may extend.
How many years can you really count on an eyeliner tattoo to stay vibrant? Permanent eyeliner tattoos can last between 2-3 years. It truly depends on your age, how you live, and your skin type.
To maintain a fresh look, it's generally advised to schedule a colour touch-up every 18 months for your permanent eyeliner.
How is Eyeliner Tattooing Done?
Upon arrival, you will engage in a detailed discussion with Nanna regarding your eyeliner goals and preferred styles.
The more research you have done the better, so come armed with pictures of styles you like, you can also wear your go-to eyeliner style on the day so Nanna can see how it looks on your natural eye shape.
Once the final decision of design, look and colour has been confirmed, Nanna will clean the area with a cotton swab and make-up remover. A numbing cream is then applied, allowing the cream to take full effect before the tattoo procedure commences ensuring a comfortable and painless experience. Once the area is numbed Nanna will attentively craft the desired eyeliner style.
Equipment she will use includes; gloves, gown, and a permanent makeup machine.
The small gauge needles used will infuse the pigment gradually into the skin, delicately crafting fine lines and shadowing.
During the procedure, Nanna will methodically move back and forth over small sections of your lash line to ensure the pigment sets properly. Once the eyeliner tattoo is completed, it is important to follow the aftercare instructions diligently, safeguarding your eyes from potential damage or the tattoo not healing consistently during the initial healing phase.

Other Eyeliner Tattooing Styles Explained
With Nanna's expert insight, you can confidently make informed decisions about choosing the perfect eyeliner tattoo style for a look that enhances your natural beauty.
Classic Eyeliner - This style of eyeliner starts from the inner corner of the eye, following the lash line precisely to the outer corner, without an exaggerated wing.

If the lower lash line is tattooed, it is crucial to keep a slight separation from the upper line.
Because the skin here is delicate, this small space stops colour from spreading.
Connecting the upper and lower lines can give the illusion of smaller eyes, hence it is best to keep them distinct.
Winged Eyeliner - A sophisticated twist on the traditional eyeliner, the winged liner features an elongated outer corner that gracefully extends into a wing.

When executed skillfully and complemented by the right eye shape, this style can cleverly give the impression of larger, lifted eyes.
It is most flattering for almond, upturned, close-set, and deep-set eyes.
Nonetheless, it is recommended to approach with care for downturned and round/protruding eye shapes, while hooded or monolid eyes may not be the most suitable canvas for a winged eyeliner look.
Ombre Eyeliner Tattoo aka Shaded Eyeliner or Smokey Eyeliner and Designer Eyeliner- If you want to create a bold statement with your Eye liner tattoo, one striking option is the shaded or smokey look, where a shade is skilfully added above the line to create a soft, smoked-out effect, often complemented by a wing for extra flair.

Typically, a deep brown tone is used for shading, slightly lighter than the main line, although purple is also a popular shade.
Artists are calling this new approach a few different things. Some say "permanent eyeshadow," while others prefer "designer eyeliner." It just goes to show how much creativity is sparking up.
Imagine waking up with your makeup done. These lasting services help achieve the aesthetic of conventional eye cosmetics.
They mimic the artistry of expertly applied liner or shadow.
Lower Eyeliner Tattoo - Incorporating bottom lid eyeliner is an easy addition to various eyeliner tattoo styles involves including an extra line that closely follows the bottom lashes, starting from the first lash and extending to the last.
When opting for lower lid eyeliner tattoo, it is important to avoid connecting it to the upper lid as this can create a visually closing effect on the eye, making it appear smaller.
Some clients opt solely for a lower lash line enhancement without tattooing on the upper lid whatsoever.
Eye Lash Enhancement - This style of eyeliner tattoo infuses permanent pigment into the eyelash line giving a subtle natural appearance of longer, thicker lashes.
First, the area is numbed, and then a thin line is tattooed directly in your lash line using a light needle.
In the future, the artist will fill in between the lashes for a fuller appearance. Similar to semi permanent eyeliner, this procedure also requires frequent touch-ups in the start, but once it is set, it lasts for 2-3 years, depending upon your exposure to sun, medications, and water.

Oh No! Your Eyeliner Tattoo has Gone Wrong! Nanna To the Rescue!
Eyeliner tattoos are meant to make life easier. But sometimes, things don't go as planned. Maybe the colour is off, or the line is too thick.
Perhaps the shape is just not right. Whatever the reason, a bad eyeliner tattoo can be upsetting. Don't worry, Nanna is here to help you fix it.
First, it's important to know you're not alone. Many people experience issues with getting a cosmetic tattoo. The good news is there are solutions.
You don't have to live with eyeliner tattoo regret.
What can cause a bad eyeliner tattoo?
- Inexperienced technicians: Not all artists have the same skill level. Choosing someone without enough experience can lead to mistakes.
- Poor quality pigments: Cheap inks can fade or change colour over time. This can leave you with an undesirable result.
- Incorrect placement: Eyeliner placement is key. A line that's too high, low, thick, or crooked can ruin the look.
- Not following aftercare: If you don't follow the aftercare instructions, the tattoo may not heal properly.
So, what can you do if your eyeliner tattoo went wrong? Several options can help. Cosmetic Tattooing removal or correction are the most common.
How to fix a bad eyeliner tattoo:
- Saline Removal: This method uses a saline solution to lift the pigment from the skin. It's a gentle way to fade the tattoo.
- Laser Removal: Lasers break down the ink particles. Then your body naturally removes them. This option might require multiple sessions.
- Colour Correction: A skilled artist can sometimes use new pigment to correct the colour. This can fix faded or discoloured tattoos.
- Shape Correction: If the shape is the problem, an artist can adjust the eyeliner tattoo. They can add pigment to reshape the line.
If you're dealing with a bad eyeliner tattoo, don't panic. With the right approach, you can get your desired look. Nanna and the team at Cosmetic Tattooing are here to provide help and guide you.
