We all like to keep abreast of new trends – and a lot is happening in permanent and semi-permanent makeup at the moment. In fact, it is improving all the time, with new and more refined procedures, and our clients say they are only sorry they didn’t try it sooner.

Permanent makeup should be comfortable, suitable for everyday use and as natural as possible. And it certainly saves a lot of time.

On the Sunshine Coast, Clynic finds that eyebrow procedure is still the most popular, followed by lip tattoos, but microblading may be on its way out, despite its super-thin strokes, especially for anyone with oily skin and large pores. It’s powder brushing now, which is easier to learn, refine and perfect. Powder brows look more natural and last longer too.

Fake looks are out of date

And then there is nanoblading, which is more sophisticated than microblading, because the hairs are finer. And brow lamination, if you already have a lot of brow hair. It brushes and lifts your brows up.

But microblading is still the most popular procedure by far

Permanent Makeup Sunshine Coast – Lips, Eyebrows, Eyeliner & Lashes

Permanent eyeliner, usually applied in two colours, is more gentle than it used to be – and is a perfect, long-term, smudge-free solution, and therefore very sought after.

And lash lifts, or perms, have become more popular now than lash extensions, because they look more natural

Thanks to Instagram, freckles are in, and many people who hated their freckles when they were children think it would really be fun to have them back again now.

Semi-permanent lip tattoos or lip blush are ideal for plumper lips, for those who like colour, and for covering up imperfections and pigment while maintaining a natural look.

Scar camouflage, or micro pigmentation, which can be used over acne too, applies flesh tone pigments in the skin to correct and make scars invisible, and lasts for years if you keep out of direct sunlight.

At Clynic, we know that every face has its own interesting and unique features, which make up its individual style. And our passion is to enhance what already exists, and to enrich our clients’ appearance, finding solutions and enhancing natural beauty and physical confidence. If you are on the Sunshine Coast, call Clynic today for the most professional advice and information – and make an appointment so that you too can look your very best after cosmetic tattoo artistry.

It would be so nice to know more about tattoo removal before actually having the tattoo in the first place. More about the results, the pain, the side effects and, of course, the cost. The removal can be even more painful than actually getting the tattoo in the first place. Do you regret any of your tattoos? My tastes have certainly changed over the past few decades – a lot!

Tattoos don’t just disappear, you know – go to a qualified doctor or experienced specialist

Do you realise how long it takes to remove a tattoo – about two and a half years on average – and laser treatments should be scheduled about three months apart to give yourself time to heal between sessions.

Numbing cream helps, but the laser treatment can be pretty painful. A chiller helps too

The cost – and degree of pain – of tattoo removal varies on the doctor doing it, as well as the size, colour, and age of the tattoo, but all inks and shades will eventually disappear, even yellows and greens.

Slather on zinc oxide sunscreen to prevent exposure to the sun. And be prepared for the sites to blister. Aftercare? You’ll need bandages and antibiotic cream or a healing moisturizer too for the first few days. And you can count on at least a week’s discomfort.

How to Remove Tattoos – Solutions

Semi-removal? Some people compromise, and lighten the tattoos and then cover them with a new one. But if all the ink is removed then there may be scarring. Tattoo removal cream doesn’t usually work – the only solutions are dermabrasion, surgery or laser treatments.

Smaller tattoos can be removed surgically quite easily. But don’t try to remove one yourself.

In the US about one in ten people – many of them teenagers – have at least one tattoo, and half of them want to remove or change them. With many teens getting tattoos they later regret, tattoo removal is an increasing issue in Australia.

If you want good advice, come and see Lyn at Clynic – Cosmetic Tattoo Artistry. She and her team will be endlessly sympathetic and helpful, and try to find the least costly and least painful solution for you.

Clynic has a great reputation for nurturing and being professional, reliable, and competent. It has an excellent record in customer satisfaction. Clients’ health and safety are Clynic’s first priority in all of our treatments.

These are the answers to some of the questions that we are asked most often:

Cosmetic tattoos are not as deep as body tattoos, and are designed for the face, which is more delicate. There is some pain involved, a but topical or block anaesthetic may be used.

Yes, cosmetic tattoos are safe, and all our equipment is either sterile or sterilised.

Colours change, and although we always try to match any shade you may choose, they should not be judged in the first six weeks. Colour bleeding is rare, but the black pigment used for eyeliner may well become a dark blue. If you already suffer from herpes, lip tattooing may cause cold sores.

If you are pregnant or on medication, you should let us know, as we often prefer not to treat people suffering from diabetes, who are on blood thinners or who drink alcohol excessively.

A tattoo tends to take between four and fourteen days to heal.

To decide on the colour of a tattoo, we take your hair, eyebrow, eye and complexion colours into consideration, and suggest that you bring your usual makeup with you for us to look at.

To decide on the shape of an eyebrow, we ask you to draw your usual shape on one eyebrow, and then we will draw our suggested shape on the other. Feathering is a technique for eyebrows that mimics fine hair strokes.

A lip, eyebrow or eye liner tattoo should heal completely within six weeks. If you get all your tattoos done on the same day, then they will all heal together – and don’t forget you cannot use any cleanser, moisturizer or makeup for four days afterwards.

Remember, a brand new tattoo will always look much brighter, darker and deeper. And a cosmetic tattoo is not temporary, although we certainly do recommend a touch up every two to three years.

When cosmetic tattooing or micro blading is beautifully and professionally done, the result is very natural and our clients leave happy.

Cosmetic Tattoos in the Sunshine Coast

Clynic – Cosmetic Tattoo Artistry, the very best cosmetic and paramedical tattooing specialists on the Sunshine Coast. We do male and female waxing too, and makeup for special occasions – and you can count on Lyn O’Connor as well as Sarah, Zola and Kahyla to bring out the best in you – and then some!

Have you ever considered permanent makeup – or cosmetic tattoos or micropigmentation as it is also called? The tattoo artist will use a pen which contains iron oxide to tattoo eyeliner or lipstick or eyebrows and create the look of makeup. Permanent makeup can even camouflage scars, and fill in an uneven hairline too.

Remember though that although permanent makeup will certainly fade with time, and need touching up occasionally, it is very difficult to remove entirely. So that does make it a real commitment.

Anyone can have permanent makeup just because they want to, but it is especially useful for someone with poor eyesight or shaky hands – or who is very impatient about getting up and getting ready, and anyone playing sport. That means anyone suffering from cataracts or arthritis or even multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s – and anyone who has had a stroke – may find it a godsend to avoid putting on makeup while still managing to look their best.

And don’t forget that areas on the eyes, eyebrows and lips do change with age. Fashions change too.

Have a proper consultation before making any final decision – find out whether you will need anaesthesia, and look at the tattoo artist’s credentials. Check their experience and, of course, how clean and hygienic their office is. Do they use medical-grade sterilisation and high quality ink? How long have they been in this profession? Where did they train and where have they worked? Do they give natural results, and what is their follow-up care policy? What is your skin type, and what do they advise? Most importantly, is this what you want and do you feel confident?

Permanent Makeup with Cosmetic Tattooing in the Sunshine Coast

There is always a risk of infection when needles are involved: the body may react, and some people are allergic to certain tattoo inks. Short-term side effects of permanent makeup may include swelling, tenderness and occasional bruising.

But permanent makeup does save time and boost confidence: “Makeup is not a mask that covers up your beauty; it’s a weapon that helps you express who you are from the inside,” Lyn O’Connor of Clynic – Cosmetic Tattoo Artistry always says.

Call Lyn at Clynic if you are on the Sunshine Coast. She really is both a cosmetic tattoo specialist and an artist who achieves the best possible results. Try a tattoo today. Permanent makeup may prove to be a real blessing for you.

This is where word of mouth really counts. Seriously, it does. Whom do your friends and acquaintances on the Sunshine Coast go to for a facial – and for more than that too? And how do they actually look afterwards? Really better? Much better? Younger? Are they happy? Are they overjoyed? Are they more confident? And do you think they look good? After all, there can hardly be a better recommendation than that.

First things first, of course

Make sure you meet your prospective tattoo artist and that you have time to talk to and relax with them – it is really important to relate to them and build up a strong rapport. After all, it’s your face, and you have to trust them absolutely. Their premises have to be impeccably clean, hygienic and sterile too. Treatments carried out incorrectly can do more harm than good. And you certainly can’t afford to risk that.

Lyn O’Connor has owned and operated Clynic ever since 2007, and she and her skilled expert colleagues provide highly specialised beautifying treatments using state-of-the-art equipment.

Clynic’s reputation is for being nurturing and professional, reliable and competent – and for putting clients’ health and safety first, always. Lyn says that eyebrows lift and frame the face, and she can enhance colour and shape, thickness, definition and symmetry, correcting what nature may have overlooked, whereas  eyeliner can lift and open the eyes, making them look clearer and brighter, creating a thicker lash look, and adding definition. To lips Lyn adds fullness, balance and symmetry, creating that fuller lip look. And then, of course, why not a beauty spot? Call Clynic and make an appointment today – enjoy yourself.

Here at Clynic, we are specialists in cosmetic tattoo refresh, colour boost and touch up for your lip, eyebrow & eyeliner tattoo! Visit our tattoo studio in Sunshine Coast!

While cosmetic tattooing may well last between one and even five years, the norm is usually three years.

However, this will be affected by a number of factors, such as:

– The quality and brands of the pigment that is used
– The professional abilities of the cosmetic tattoo specialist who carries out the procedure
– The skin type of the client
– Exposure to the sun — this will make the pigment fade a lot more quickly
– Medication, if any, taken by the client. This should be made known to the cosmetic tattoo specialist at the initial consultation
– The client’s metabolism — take into account everyone heals differently
– Beauty treatments and certain creams such as glycolic acids and peels may well affect the tattoo
– Aftercare really matters, so follow your cosmetic tattoo specialist’s advice to the letter
– Colour does make a difference too. Darker colours such as black eyeliner usually last longer

Nurturing and professional, reliable and competent

You should certainly check your cosmetic tattoos after 12 months to see if a colour boost/ touch-up is necessary and proceed accordingly. Nothing lasts forever, but a follow-up with your tattooing specialist after 12 to 24 months will allow you to take any remedial action that may be needed.

Clients’ health and safety are our priority in all treatments

Naturally, you are the best judge of what is required and a lot depends on how you feel about your appearance and whether or not you would like a touch-up. It is your appearance and whatever pleases you and makes you feel confident and satisfied that matter. A cosmetic tattoo artist like Lyn at Clynic will always listen to any concerns you may have and will give you her professional advice.

Cosmetic Tattoo Refresh, Colour Boost & Touch-Up in Sunshine Coast

Congrats on your new cosmetic tattoo! But can you maintain it? Here’s a step by step guide on how to take care of a cosmetic tattoo and make it last for years!

First of all, of course you should check with your cosmetic tattoo specialist while the procedure is being done for careful, detailed guidance on how best to take care of your new tattoo. But there are also some general rules it would be wise to follow:

1. Clean ice packs well protected with a cloth may be used to prevent swelling everywhere except on the lips

2. Sleep with your head slightly elevated

3. Maintain hygienic sanitary practices at all times, and of course wash your hands thoroughly before touching the affected area

4. Always wear glasses outdoors to protect new eyeliner from any dust

5. Never, under any circumstances, pick, peel or scratch the tattooed area

6. Do not apply any make-up to the tattooed area for at least three full days

7. If you undergo an eyeliner procedure, please use a new mascara for at least the first 10 days following the three days of no make-up. An eyelash curler should not be used for at least two weeks after the procedure

8. Do not expose your healing skin to a direct shower spray, skin cream or any ointment other than what the cosmetic tattoo specialist has prescribed for at least three days after the procedure

9. Do not expose your healing skin to any direct sunlight, and avoid chlorine, saunas and extremely hot weather for at least two weeks following the procedure

10. Use a top quality sunscreen or sunblock spray, gel or lotion every day, including on your lips.

Everything here is sterilised after each client and at the end of every day, including the reception area, bathrooms and door handles

After following the above advice, and also having met with your cosmetic tattoo specialist for a further examination, you will be free to enjoy the full benefits of your new look until you think you need a touch-up or two, but this will normally be at least one or two years after the procedure, if not longer.

We are here for all of our clients during this strange time

All that remains is for you to make an appointment with Lyn or one of her team at Clynic and put yourself in their hands for that bright new spring look you are looking forward to. We are always remembering – your safety comes first!

If you want to add permanent colour, be sure to choose a shade that you will feel comfortable enough living with for at least a year or two.

At Clynic, proper hygiene, sanitation, and maintaining a healthy environment for our clients and team is and always has been a top priority

Imagine, no more smudged lipstick, and no more lip colour that fades. It won’t come off on a facemask either.
