The NATURAL - No Makeup Look

Makeup trends come and go. It seems as if heavy eye makeup goes in and out of style, just as bright lips, nude lips, heavy highlight, etc. do the same thing. Yes there is a time and a place for all kinds of makeup, don't misunderstand what I am saying. One thing that remains is looking natural. No matter your age, your occupation or hobbies, it's safe to say that the “ natural, no makeup look" is pretty much always in. It can make you look younger, that's for sure, but did you ever notice how many products you need to accomplish that “natural, no makeup look?" You sure can't count the number of products needed with one hand!

You need a primer, concealer, redness corrector/spot corrector, foundation, setting powder, highlighter, mascara primer, mascara, lip primer, natural lip color, and probably a few other things that I forgot about.



After you have all your makeup out, you then have to add in all the different makeup tools and brushes to really make the “natural, no makeup look" work for you.

I love makeup. I have always loved it, and I always will. I think it's amazing what you can do with makeup, as well. It is a very powerful tool, and it can make or break a look, an outfit, an event, catalog, runway etc. It can be distracting, but it can also be mesmerizing.

I think one of the most time consuming aspects of perfecting a makeup look - any look, really - is the eyebrows. If done the wrong way, eyebrows can make you look mad at the world or extremely surprised.

I have many clients who struggle more with the application of (conventional) eyeliner. It can be tedious if your hand isn't steady or if you haven't had a lot of practice. They are thrilled when they learn that they can actually tattoo their eyeliner on so they don't have to fuss with it anymore.


When you have your eyebrows tattooed, you don't have to fuss with the 7 things needed to perfect an eyebrow.

When your lips are tattooed, you are able to enjoy the natural rosy blush of color of your lips all the time and not just for the 20 minutes after you apply a lipstick.

Consider this - let's say you don't have the time to really do your makeup the way you would like to each morning. Let's then say that you decide to have your eyebrows, eyeliner, and lips done and all of a sudden you can focus that teeny bit of time you have in the morning to even out your skin tone, add a blush of color to your cheeks and pop some mascara on and be out the door quicker than you've ever been ready before in your life.

Let me take a step back and say that I love makeup, and I love it's many possibilities. If I didn't love makeup so much, I wouldn't be in the beauty industry. I love that with permanent makeup you have options. You can still enjoy all of your makeup and change up your look on top of your tattooed eyeliner, brows and lips. Think of permanent makeup like a head start each and every morning. I promise you will love the many possibilities.
