What is Permanent Makeup (PMU)

Permanent makeup is a technique that is actually based on tattoos to crate design which resembles makeup. Furthermore, unlike typical tattoos, these tattoos employ a special pigment created for sensitive skin, such as the face, as well as less stressful equipment. Microblading and cosmetic tattooing are other most widely known names of permanent makeup.

I have covered trendy all kinds of permanent makeup here. I am excited to share

Semi-Permanent Makeup

As I previously stated, permanent makeup and semi-permanent makeup are both tattoo techniques, although they are slightly different from traditional ones. Traditional tattoos have a propensity to last a lifetime, while permanent cosmetics utilize pigment that fades over time, depending on the pigment and the kind and condition of your skin.

At this point, you should be aware that semi-permanent and permanent makeup are both identical in nature. The longevity of a pigment might vary depending on the brand and kind of pigment (this should not be the point of decision). Longevity isn't always a good thing because pigment fades with time, resulting in an unappealing appearance.

How Long Does Permanent Makeup Last?

If you're considering adopting this treatment to conserve your time in front of the mirror every day, you're definitely curious about how long it will last. After all, if something is meant to save you time, it should do so for a long.

Permanent makeup, on the other hand, has a longer shelf life. Permanent makeup treatments can last anywhere from three to five years, equating to three to five years of comfortable, natural beauty!

What Causes Fading?

This makeup lasts a long time, but it is not invincible. In reality, depending on where the pigment is put, certain makeup fades faster than others. Permanent eyeliner or lash line pigment can last one to three years, but pigment applied directly to the skin can take up to five years to disappear.

However, what causes fading in the first place? Your skin type, age, howwell your skin reacts to pigment, how much sun exposure you get, and the treatments you apply to your skin can all contribute to fading. Some of these are things you have no control over.
