If you haven't been living under a rock, by now
you are sure to have heard about the new trends in semi-permanent
makeup which are sweeping
across the world and making waves on the catwalks, beauty magazines and
celebrity circles. The trend for eyebrow embroidery has arrived and it has
arrived big and there are no signs of the trend disappearing in the near
future. If anything, it has only been growing in popularity.
The trend has been catching like wildfire across
the world, from the fashion capitals of Paris, London, and New York to Asian
fashion capitals such as Singapore, Bombay and Tokyo. Dubai, not to be outdone
when it comes to anything trendy and cosmopolitan, has also latched on to
eyebrow embroidery and semi
permanent makeup in a big way.
One of the leading semi
permanent makeup artists who operate in
Dubai is Michele Soudi of Eyebrows Dubai. Having been in the beauty industry for over 30 years, with
experience in both England and Dubai and having catered to many leading
celebrity clients, Soudi knows what she is doing. She is definitely a name
which should be considered if one is contemplating getting semi
permanent makeup in Dubai.
If you are interested in getting eyebrow
embroidery or any other form of semi
permanent makeup for that matter, you
have to have a clear idea of the procedure involved so that you know what you
are in for, and don't have unrealistic expectations. Although there may be
slight changes in the procedure and steps required from place to place, it
generally is a variation of the following. So, here goes.
The first thing that is done, after the initial
discussion about what you want, of course, is the application of numbing cream
on the brows. This is done first so that the cream has time to take effect.
After about 30 minutes, when the cream has taken effect, it's wiped off so that
the eyebrow technician can start work, drawing the brows.
This is one of the most important steps in semi
permanent makeup. First, any stray hair
is removed and then the drawing of the new brow starts. The shape of the face,
the complexion, the shape of the eyes and how close or far apart they are set
in the face, the state of the current brows - whether they are already thick
and luscious or with scanty hair with patches in between, how defined or subtle
the client wants her brows done, how dark and in what colour - black, dark
brown, brown etc., they would want the brows are some of the important points
to consider.
Most important is the shape of the brows. Some
clients may prefer a perfect arch while some may prefer a more subtle straight
brow. However, it goes without saying that the final result should look natural
and complement the face without standing out from the rest of the features and
looking artificial.
Then starts the actual embroidery process after
the client has had a look at the drawn brows, any alterations done and after
they have given the final approval for the design. New blades are used for
every client by Eyebrows Dubai which follows the most stringent standards when
it comes to hygiene in the application of semi-permanent
makeup. The colours are also
blended to get the exact shade which suits the client so that the new brows are
not too dark or too light. Final checks are done to see if the colour is
uniform, whether both brows are balanced, etc. The procedure could take about
one and a half hours.
The skin would be reddish for a few days, but
this is quite natural and a soothing cream several times a day should minimise
the discomfort. The brows should be allowed to heal and care should be taken to
clean the face without water touching the brows for at least a week, to keep
the colour intact .
A touch-up is on the cards about a month later
to correct any mistakes which may have occurred in the initial treatment, add
colour to places which may have been missed and to make slight changes to the
shape of the brows if a client wishes so.
What is important is to go to a qualified and
experienced semi
permanent makeup artiste to get your
eyebrow embroidery done so that there is no room for regrets. In the UAE, who
better than Michele Soudi and Eyebrows Dubai?
