🌟 Non-Committal Brows are now an option🌟

Hey loves! 💖 If you've stepped into my shop, you're already familiar with my approach to Permanent Makeup. 🎨✨ When it comes to creating those flawless brows I'm all about that light and natural vibe! 🌈🌸

Your first session with me is all about the delicate touch – no dramatic flair, no extreme ombre, nothing too dark, no dramatic makeup looks, just pure elegance. 🌟✨ But guess what? The magic truly unfolds during the touch-up! 🙌✨

Let's talk pigments! ✒️✨ Lighter shades mean a more au naturel look – think misty, fast-fading goodness. 🌬️ Less trauma, more touch-ups, and a hint of discoloration protection. On the flip side, deeper tones deliver that fierce, made-up glam – saturated and long-lasting, but also cause more skin trauma and skin discoloration. 🌹🔥

I'm a creature of habit, sticking to what I know and love. 💕 But guess what's got me jumping with excitement? The FADE Eyebrow Pigment Collection! 🎉🌼 This treasure is all about embracing the artistry of semi-permanent beauty, without locking you into a forever vibe. 🙅‍♀️✨

Introducing FADE – a inorganic pigment line that dances with your skin for 12-24 months, then softly fades into a lighter shade. 🌈💫 And the best part? It's oh-so-customizable! Results may vary, but these EU REACH compliant pigments are here to stay. No warm/red fading vibes here, darling! 🚫🧡

Embrace the freedom of tattooed brows without the lifelong pact. Clients, this is your playground! 🎨🙌 With FADE, you're in control, refreshing your brows as the years drift by. 📆🌟

PS: You know me – I'm your ultimate advocate! 🙋‍♀️ I'll always spill the tea on what's best for you, even if we have different dreams. My mission? Leaving you feeling fab, never overdone. 🙌💕 After all, I'm all about that graceful and conservative touch. Let's rock that understated glam, beauties! ✨🌹

⭐️POWDER BROWS⭐️ I’m so pleased with the final results after this client’s touch-up but also very impressed with her retention after her first session. I did a complete reshape which does require maintenance.

(Those with combination/oily skin and/or large pores you can expect a similar outcome. The results are less misty in effect but nevertheless 🤩.)

I spent an incredible amount of time on her left brow, using 75% pointillism. It was worth the effort and I truly believe the pigment I mixed up matched her hair follicle almost exactly. Swipe left to view her journey ⇠

Thanks for coming from out-of-town and visiting Carmel for the first time in order to see me, C!

Touch up 6 months after the initial session (swipe left for results after first session). Client wanted to go thinner the second time. Since I’m very conservative at the first round usually, we had the wiggle room to alter the shape and taper the tail.

It’s BEEN FOREVER since I posted but I lost control of my Instagram account for over three months.

Now that I have it back I can’t even say that I feel good about it. I have too many photos in my backlog I need to post. Since I’m only mildly into social media, the thought of slowly catching up on posts gives me anxiety. I have 28,000 photos stored on my phone, mostly photos of clients, my dog, wine and the seashore.

I recently returned from Maui, now in Carmel-by-the-sea.

I went to Pebble Beach and brought my dog, smelled the strewn bullwhip kelp and I feel at home. It’s the little things that bring me so much happiness.

Microblading Correction + Eyeliner Tattoo refresh ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
❥ New shape and color (client wanted DARK brows). I completely altered her brow shape and I love how it turned out.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
❥ Corrections are limited by your current tattoo; consultations are necessary and also included in your service. In really dark/heavy scar cases, laser removal may be recommended.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
❥ For best results, you’ll need a touch-up! ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
❥ If you think you may need a correction and need a recommendation prior to booking, please contact me for guidance!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
🎁 In case you didn’t get the memo, I am offering $100 your first appointment select days in the month of December. Head to the top of my feed for more details.

❥ For YEARS I wanted to get permanent eyeliner done on myself. Never got it done but here I am doing it for others.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
❥ Classic Winged Eyeliner Tattoo in Starline Pretty Brown by Perma Blend. This is the thickness pigment I’ve ever used. Almost like glue. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
❥ I also offer lash enhancement (highly recommended) and DUSTY EYELINER STARTING FEBRUARY 2023.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
❥ If you have seen me in person, you will know that I always wear dark shadow on my outer corner. As I get older my eyelids are really tapering off and I’m starting to look kind of sad, sadly!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
❥ I’ve dreamt for years of getting permanent eyeliner done with dusty shadow tattooed. Still never got it done but here I am offering it to people. Stay tuned for more details coming in the future. ​​​​​​​​

This beauty can skip filling in her brows with Powder Brows!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
This photo was taken right after her touch-up. Seeing how my client’s brows healed I decided to go darker the second round. The results are satisfying because her brow hair is dark to begin with. She literally can skip drawing in her brows if she wanted to, and wake up with makeup!! How wonderful, right? ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Initial redness is normal, but often times it will tone down hours later or the next day. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Thank you so much Kelly for choosing me as your Permanent Makeup Artist. You are truly beautiful inside and out!!!​​​​​​​​
