Summer is here, and with it comes the opportunity for self-care and some “me” time. The days are longer, the schedules are a little lighter, and the pace of life slows down ever so slightly. This season of warmth and sunshine provides the perfect backdrop for prioritizing your well-being and pampering yourself with some much-deserved attention.
Summer is the perfect time to prioritize your permanent cosmetics procedures, so you can enjoy flawless lips, eyes, and eyebrows without the hassle of daily makeup applications. Whether you’re lounging by the pool, attending summer parties, or simply enjoying the outdoors, looking your best has never been easier.
At Adorn Cosmetic, we specialize in enhancing your natural beauty with semi-permanent solutions that save you time and effort. If you’ve been considering a refresh for your brows or an enhancement for your lips, now is the perfect time to take the plunge.
Benefits of Permanent Makeup for Summer Months
Permanent makeup, or cosmetic tattoo, is a game-changer, especially during the summer months. We appreciate the benefits of permanent makeup year-round, but particularly in the summer for these reasons:
Effortless Beauty: Permanent makeup means you wake up each day with perfectly applied eyeliner, brows, and lips, skipping the daily makeup routine. With less time in front of the mirror, you’ll enjoy more time for your favorite summer activities.
Waterproof and Sweatproof: Whether you’re swimming, camping, lounging by the pool, or sweating it out at a festival, permanent makeup stays put. You’ll look perfect no matter how hot and humid it gets, without worrying about makeup smudging or melting away.
Allergy Relief: If you have makeup allergies or sensitivities, permanent makeup offers a great long-term alternative. Enjoy beautifully defined features without the irritation that can come from traditional makeup products, especially in the heat.
Enjoy the freedom and convenience it brings, and make the most of your long days and warm nights without the worry of makeup maintenance.
Bright Days, Beautiful Brows: Microblading, Nano, or Powder
Microblading is an extremely popular procedure for creating fuller and more even eyebrows. The procedure provides a semi-permanent effect distinct from standard cosmetic tattoos, which allows clients to change their brow design over time as trends change and the face ages. Got oily skin? No problem. Our Nano brows procedure allows even those with oily skin to achieve brows with crisp hair strokes. Our brow style can range from all hair strokes, to a combination of hair strokes with shading in sparse areas, to a bold “makeup” brow (often referred to as ombre or powder brows). Bid farewell to sparse brows and welcome beautifully defined, natural-looking eyebrows.
Eyes on Summer: Perfectly Defined Eyes
Say goodbye to smudged eyeliner and hello to perfectly defined eyes. The eyeliner tattoo procedure is a semi-permanent solution that enhances the natural beauty of your eyes by adding definition and depth to your lash line. During the procedure, a skilled technician uses a specialized tool to carefully deposit pigment into the skin along your lash line. This process creates a precise, long-lasting line that can be tailored to your desired thickness and style, whether you prefer a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic look. The result is a flawless, smudge-proof eyeliner that stays put through all your summer activities, from swimming to sweating, giving you the confidence to enjoy your day without constant touch-ups.
Summer-Ready Lips
Lipstick wears off when you eat, drink or jump in the pool, but with lip blushing, you can enjoy beautifully tinted lips that stay vibrant and fresh no matter what. Permanent makeup for lips is a great way to create the look you have always wanted for your lips, without fillers or surgery. Lip designs are created with a wide range of pigment and cosmetic colors, to match every shade of lip color. Similar to permanent eyeliner and eyebrows, lip lining is a less drastic alternative to invasive procedures, such as Juvederm, Restylane, Voluma, and Perlane. To achieve the most appropriate color, various shades of pink are blended to match your natural tone. If you want greater lip contour definition, a darker color can be selected for your lip liner procedure. The result is a long-lasting, smudge-proof tint that stays fresh through all your summer activities, from beach days to evening outings. With lip lining, you can look as if you’ve just applied a fresh coat of your favorite lipstick, all day every day!
How to Protect Your Permanent Makeup This Summer
With the warm weather and sunny days ahead, it’s important to know how to protect your permanent makeup to ensure it stays vibrant as long as possible. The sun’s rays can cause fading and discoloration of permanent makeup. Ultraviolet (UV) rays penetrate the skin and break down the pigments used in procedures like microblading, lip blushing, and eyeliner tattoos. Imagine the disappointment of your carefully crafted permanent makeup fading away just as quickly as the summer days – not exactly the lasting beauty you had in mind.
Follow our tips for getting your microbladed brows to last longer: Stay out of direct sunlight in the aftermath of your microblading session. It is important that sun exposure is minimized during the healing process, and using SPF on the brows or covering the face with a hat or visor when you are out in the sun will help keep your brows looking fresh.
Certain skincare products, especially those containing retinol, glycolic acid, or salicylic acid, can also accelerate fading. Avoid applying these products directly to your permanent makeup areas and opt for milder alternatives. Use a gentle, non-abrasive cleanser to wash your face. Avoid scrubbing the areas where you have permanent makeup, and pat your skin dry instead of rubbing it. This will help prevent irritation and maintain the integrity of the pigment.
Fear not, by following these tips, you can significantly extend the life of your permanent makeup. You can still enjoy all your favorite summer activities, from beach outings to pool parties, with the confidence that your look will remain flawless.
