A numbing cream is applied to the area prior to your eye tattoo procedure, which should make the whole process relatively painless. Some people with sensitivity or a lower pain threshold may find the procedure mildly uncomfortable, but generally most client’s experience little or no pain.

The procedure usually takes approximately 2-3 hours, including the numbing process (approximately 30 minutes). A traditional look usually takes less time, however a stronger eyeliner, wing or cat eye could take 2 – 3 hours.

Most eyeliner tattoos will last between 8 and 18 months, however the pigment will eventually fade, so a ‘touch up’ is recommended after 12 months. Every skin holds the pigment differently and many things including medications, skin type and health can determine the rate of fading.

There is usually no downtime after an eyeliner procedure, just a few cautionary things to avoid during the healing process – usually 7 – 10 days.

• Avoid mascara, which is full of bacteria so can increase your chance of infection before the skin has full healed.
• Similarly, avoid rubbing or touching your eyes to minimise the risk of germs and bacteria being spread.
• Avoid swimming pools and saunas.
• Avoid heavy exercise.

• It’s smudge-proof and waterproof
• It accentuates your eye shape and colour without the need for traditional makeup eyeliner.
• You don’t need to apply eyeliner every day!
