Semi Permanent Make Up (SPMU)



When I was on GMTV with Lorraine Kelly she was admiring my natural looking eyebrows and eyeliner..

I use to spend ages getting ready every morning.... I had to draw in my eyebrows and put thick eyeliner on to add the much needed definition to my eyes... Most of time time I got them looking right the 1st time and I would be off out the door with all the practice I had from doing it every day, but it would be always when I was in a hurry that one eye would look perfect and the other would look so wrong! Also the amount of times I have poked myself in the eye with my liner brush because I was rushing was just one time too many to count... Something had to be done!

Semi Permanent Make Up (SPMU) has become a must have treatment, not just for people with Alopecia, it can also be used to camouflage scars and also everyday women like to have make up when they wake up to defining brows eyes and lips.

My experience of Semi Permanent Make Up is that it was fast, painless and provided fantastic results that has really transformed my life!

As eyebrows are suppose to have a natural hairy look about them specialist SPMU artists use lots of little strokes to create the look of lots of little hairs instead of a block of colour, which gives them such a realistic effect.

Definition around my eyes is something that was totally lost when my eyelashes feel out... I was scared about having the eyeliner done but an SPMU artist uses anaesthetic cream which really numbs the eye lid and helps with any discomfort. My lids swelled up a little afterwards but... oh my god it is totally worth it! I love my eyeliner its amazing.

The procedure can be expensive... Eyebrows are about £300 and the eyeliner is about £250 but I think that the way it transforms your life and the freedom it gives you makes it totally worth while. For me to wake up knowing that my eyebrows and eyeliner are there not only gives me more confidence but it also makes me feel like me as soon as I look in the mirror. Never again will I have that blank expressionless face.
