Permanent Makeup (Micropigmentation) Directory

Permanent makeup is a procedure in which different types of makeup -- eyeliner, lip liner, blush, eye shadow, and more -- are applied as a tattoo.

Micropigmentation may also be useful for those who want to enhance certain aspects of their appearance such as thin eyebrows or an uneven hairline.
