Fades Quickly - Salt Lake City, UT

Not Worth It
Spent: $1,000 in Salt Lake City, UT

Posted 10 Feb 2011

The makeup artist I used was very reputable and did a wonderful job. I had both my lips and eye liner done. I was very satisfied the first couple of months but then it began to fade quickly. After a year, it was barely visible on my eyes and had faded unevenly on my lips. I would not recommend this at this time.

Helpful review?

She was very knowledgeable, had great references and moderate prices.

Hi Salt Lake,

You are the second community member who has mentioned their permanent makeup is fading. Have you gone back and asked your makeup artists what is going on and see if she would be willing to fix it? I'm sorry this is happening, especially after you were so satisfied. Please keep us updated.

Thanks so much for the review,

-Britt

The artist actually retouched her work several times over a 3 month period in an attempt to attain a more stable color. Sadly, none of her efforts worked. I was very careful to follow her aftercare instructions even changing the supplements I take.
I am very fair skinned with blonde hair and she felt that perhaps my complexion had a lot to do with the fading. This occurred several years ago and I have never wanted to try again because the results were so disapointing.

Hmm, I've never heard of fair skin not taking tattoo color well, but maybe. I could see why you are scared. Are you just giving up then and just wearing eyeliner? Please keep us updated.

Yes, I have been wearing conventional make-up and am resigned to the fact that while I love the idea of permanent make-up, for me it is not possible.

Well at least now you can change your colors with the seasons ;)
