“Mixed results”
Permanent makeup: NOT worth it
Pain: Worst possible
I had my eyeliner done in 2005 and it was wonderful. It looks great and I actually never wear anything but mascara and people constantly comment on how good my eyes look.
On the other hand, I had lipliner and full color done on my lips and after 3 complete sessions, there is NO sign of color. I went to a different makeup artist that was much cheaper than the lady that did my eyes. I guess that was the first mistake. Even with a dental block the first time, I never got numb. It was HORRIBLE!!! The two weeks after the procedure are even worse because you get fever blisters, split lips and your lips feel like sandpaper because they are so dry.
This last time (which is the LAST time) the artist messed up my liner and now it looks like I have wrinkles around my mouth for some reason. I may go to the lady that did my eyes and have her just fix the liner but no more. I'm done with all that!

I had my eye brows, eyelids and lips done. Eyebrows were the least painful. Having eye liner applied to my upper and lower eyelids hurt, but it was nothing compared to the terrific pain I suffered when having permanent lip color applied to my lips. It didn't take the first time and so I had to go back so she could try again. Lip color disappeared after a few months. Eyebrows and eyeliner color still remain after seven years. I paid $4,000 in Indianapolis. I had blue eyeliner run to the outside corners of my eyes which looks a little weird and I try to hide it with a concealer.
