Permanent Eyeliner, Lipliner & Eyebrows
Permanent make-up is possible through a procedure called micropigmentation, which is similar to tattooing. It can mimic eyeliner, eyebrow pencil & lip liner when performed by a trained medical professional, permanent make-up can appear natural and attractive.
Advantages of Permanent Make-up
Permanent make-up is ideal for on-the-go women who always need to look their best but cannot afford the time to apply make-up throughout the day. At the end of the day, your make-up looks as though it was just freshened. You can select your color of make-up from a wide variety of shades, or a new shade can be created for you.
Cost of Permanent Make-up
The cost of permanent make-up varies significantly depending on the training of the person performing it, the quality of result, and the number of areas being tattooed. The cost for tattooing a single area, such as the lips, eyes, or eyebrows, ranges from $300 to $1000.
Risks of Permanent Make-up
Your greatest risk in cosmetic tattooing is having an untrained individual perform this procedure. Cosmetic tattoos currently are available everywhere and are not necessarily regulated. Disadvantages of having a lay person place your tattoo abound. If they use contaminated needles, infections can be transmitted. The ink may not be of medical quality and may cause irritation. Placement of cosmetic tattoos demands precision. Eyeliner placement has little room for error. If your eyebrow tattoo is placed high you may have a permanent look of surprise. If your cosmetic tattoo is botched, removal may be fraught with difficulty. Removal of eyeliner or eyebrow tattoos with laser may damage the hair follicles and result in loss of eyelashes or eyebrows.
Temporary Lip Tattoos: Cool or Just Plain Cuckoo?
The company's how-to tutorial makes the application seem simple. However, it takes some serious skill: Holding separate top-lip and bottom-lip pieces over your lips, you trace your lips' natural shape (I needed someone to help me trace) and then cut out the shapes (you basically need the precision of an X-acto knife to match your lip shape perfectly). The rest of the process is similar to how you put on a temporary skin tattoo: Remove a clear plastic covering, press the tats onto your lips, blot with water-saturated tissues, and peel to reveal the pattern on your lips. Once we finally got them in place, we loved how cool they looked (I felt like Nicki Minaj for a second) and even attracted a crowd in the office—one editor said I looked like Minnie Mouse. Funny, huh? Well, don't laugh—as soon as you smile, the thin material cracks and crinkles up. And while you're at it, don't talk, press your lips together, or drink anything. Because of the lip tats' short life span, they're best for a quirky Facebook photo or Halloween party—which, in all likelihood, is the only place you would wear them anyway.
Temporary transfer tattoos
extracted from From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Modern temporary transfer tattoos are made of
ink and
glue, and last much longer than older temporary tattoos. In this process, the tattoo is applied to the
outer surface of the skin and remains until such time as the image fades away (typically after 3–5 days) or is removed.
Temporary tattoos usually consist of five main elements: the front of the sheet of paper, the back of the sheet of paper, ink, glue and a protective plastic sheet. The front of the sheet is covered with a special coating upon which the tattoo image is printed with special inks. A layer of glue is then applied on top of the image. A thin, transparent plastic sheet is placed over the front of the sheet to protect the image and glue layer. The back of the sheet is left untreated and has a list of ingredient & instructions printed on it.
Transfer temporary tattoos are usually applied by removing the plastic sheet, placing the image face down against the skin and moistening the backing by wetting it thoroughly. The backing can then be carefully removed, leaving the image in place.
Today, temporary tattoos are sold everywhere from vending machines to check-out counters at mass retailers to high-end boutiques and can be customized and printed through a color laser printer using specialty color laser
transfer paper. A variety of tattoo designs exist; everything from Marvel superhero tattoos, to glitter designs, to Ed Hardy temporary tattoos for trendy adults and clubbing designs for young people.

Main article: MehndiHenna tattoos, also known as
Mehndi, is another form of temporary tattoo. Coming from a south Asian tradition, henna uses a paste made from the powdered leaves of the Henna plant,
Lawsonia inermis. Its active dye,
Lawsone, binds with the keratin in skin, fingernails, and hair. Traditional henna is drawn in delicate patterns on the hands and feet, but modern henna is applied in all sorts of designs anywhere on the body. Unlike other forms of temporary tattoos, henna does not allow for a full range of colors but only shades of reds, browns, and near-blacks. The paste is applied and left on the skin for several hours to stain. The stain will gradually fade away as the skin sheds. Henna tattoos can last days to over a month depending on application and aftercare.
However, caution should be taken as many products labeled henna are misleading. Fast-staining "black henna" can contain
para-phenylenediamine (PPD) which can cause allergic reactions and scarring.
