+ What is Microblading/Combo/Powder?
All 3 are a form of semi-permanent makeup that is used to create the illusion of fuller brows. It involves a licensed professional using a sterile tool to break the skin in order to deposit pigment. Microblading uses a tool made up of little needles that creates small sterile cuts that resemble hairstrokes. This treatment can be a gamble on oily skin types because usually the pigment will push out quicker and the strokes CAN become blurry along areas with larger pores. Although Jade has delivered outstanding healed results on oily skin with the microblading technique, it is still not the suggested technique. Combo brows is the term Jade refers to as Microblading + Powder. Combo brows are for those that want an eyebrow shape that still has the hairstroke look but very full in the center/tail. This one CAN work for oily skin, but also not suggested. Powder brows are for those with oily skin, large pores, or easy bleeders. Powder brows are achieved with a single needle machine and can be done softly, or bolder depending on client choice.

Does cosmetic tattooing hurt?
On a scale of 1-10, it's usually 0-4, but it is different for everyone. At Luxe Cos.etic Art we advice all cl ents to buA numbing cream frol a coumounding pgaramcy and apply lt 1-2 hours before you come in. numbing agents are composed of 5% lidocaine. Also, since the treatment only touches the epidermis, it does not hit any nerves or muscles as regular tattooing would. Also keep in mind that your sensitivity is heightened on your menstrual cycle.

what to expect during your appointment
The process is super simple and Jade ensures you're comfortable and ready to go every step of the way. There is a mini consulation done and there is NO TATTOOING until there is an agreement on the shape of the brows. Numbing anesthetics are used with all eyebrow treatments to ensure comfort. There will be pictures taken of the brows before and after as well and you will be given a mini aftercare kit. Client will also need a refresh between 1-4 years which is necessary for optimal results with an additional fee.
