Pricing Guide
Microblading (Natural Hair-Like Strokes)
Session Protocol
- Consultation & Face Mapping: 30-minute analysis using calipers and Golden Ratio mapping strings to draw the proposed shape. Approval required before procedure starts.
- The Procedure: 60-90 minute manual micro-stroking technique using a sterile hand tool to deposit pigment into the upper dermis.
- Pigment Customization: Use of premium, iron-oxide free organic pigments mixed to match natural hair and skin undertones.
Hygiene & Comfort
- Sterile Setup: Unsealed sterile needles opened in front of the client with technician wearing UV-sterilized gloves.
- Pain Management: Application of high-grade topical anesthetic cream (lidocaine based) for a virtually painless experience.
- Aftercare Kit: Includes a post-care ointment sachet and printed instruction card.
Ombré / Microshading Brows (Powder Effect)
Technique & Design
- Gradient Mapping: Specialized design focusing on a defined "tail" and a soft, faded "head" (front) for the signature Ombré effect.
- Machine Application: Use of a digital PMU machine to implant pigment as tiny "pixels," creating a powder finish that lasts longer than manual strokes.
- Skin Formulation: Selection of pigments specifically stabilized for oily/combination skin to prevent blurring.
Safety & Care
- Dual-Numbing: Initial topical numbing plus secondary gel numbing applied during the procedure to manage sensitivity.
- Safety Standards: Use of single-use sterile membrane cartridges to prevent fluid backflow.
- Recovery: Includes specific gel to hydrate brows during the 7-14 day healing phase.
Lip Blush & Tinting (Color Correction)
Design & Neutralization
- Dark Lip Correction: Specialized first-pass step using warm orange/corrector pigments to neutralize cool/dark melanin tones common in Indian skin.
- Shaping: Correction of asymmetry and definition of the vermilion border (lip line) for a fuller appearance.
- Custom Color: Bespoke mixing of nude, pink, or coral shades based on skin undertone.
Procedure Details
- Extended Duration: A thorough 2.5 to 3-hour session allowing for slow pigment implantation to minimize trauma.
- Anesthetics: Use of strong, safe pre-numbing cream to manage the high sensitivity of lip tissue.
Aftercare Essentials
- Healing Kit: Supply of specialized A&D ointment to prevent chapping during the peeling phase (3-5 days).
Beauty Spot Creation
Procedure
- Strategic Placement: Consultation to mark the exact spot (e.g., upper lip, cheekbone) to enhance facial features.
- Application: 15-minute procedure using a micro-needle to deposit dark brown pigment (avoids the "fake" black look).
Hygiene
- Tray Setup: Utilization of a full sterile tray setup, including a fresh needle and fresh pigment cup, regardless of procedure size.
- Aftercare: Application of healing balm to ensure the spot heals crisp without blurring.
About Semi-Permanent Makeup (PMU)
Why I Love PMU
Honestly, who has time for smudged brows or faded lipstick? With semi-permanent makeup, my day starts smoother. The results feel like waking up with your face already sorted—no more rushing to fix up before stepping out.
What I Offer
- Microblading for natural brows - I use fine strokes for a super natural finish. If you like that "no-makeup" makeup style, this is your jam, especially for normal to dry skin. Results stick around for 1-2 years.
- Microshading - Gives brows a soft, filled-in look, like powder but longer-lasting. Oily or sensitive skin? This one’s for you. Usually lasts about 1.5 to 2 years.
- Lip blushing for fuller lips - Tired of dull lips? Lip blushing adds a gentle tint and definition. No smudging, no constant reapplying. Just low-key, pretty lips that last.
My Process
- I customize shapes and shades for your face, so nothing feels cookie-cutter.
- Healing takes about 7-14 days. It gets a bit itchy sometimes, so patience is key.
- The real color settles in after 4-6 weeks, and we’ll do a touch-up to perfect it.
- Results are long-lasting, but sun and harsh products can fade them sooner.
Aftercare Tips
- Sunscreen is non-negotiable—keeps color fresh.
- No makeup on the area till healed.
- Go easy on exfoliants like retinol nearby.
If you want a smudge-proof makeup look that makes mornings easier, this is it. PMU isn’t magic, but it’s pretty close.

From those massage chairs to the vibe, it’s all about you feeling fab, whether you’re here for a wedding look or just a pick-me-up. We’ve grown, but honestly, seeing you walk out happy?
