Hi all,

I am hoping for some advice. I wish to get some cosmetic tattooing done on my eye lids. Any advice where to go and not to go?

Also, personal experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi. I just had cosmetic tattooing done on both my upper and lower eyelids at Erica’s Aesthetics in Kingston. I’m very happy with the end result. I was impressed at the professionalism of Erica throughout the procedure, and would highly recommend her to anybody looking to get this done.

Hi, I’m Erica from Erica’s Aesthetics in Kingston. I would be more than happy to answer any questions you have regarding micropigmentation (cosmetic tattoo).

My salon is relatively new in Canberra, (you may have seen the chandeliers across the road from Green square!) however I have been practising Micropigmentation (cosmetic tattoo) for many years, with hundreds of happy clients.

I’d like to know where a non-cosmetic tattoo goes. Internally?

I have had permanent makeup done in several different places over the years the last time I had it done while down in Melbourne on a weekend away and now I would not go anywhere else to get it done. I got used to the idea that it hurt to have it done and I used to be sore for several days but after having it done by this lady I realised it is all to do with the technique and the quality of the equipment being used.

It did not hurt and I was pretty much back to normal after a couple of days and its absolutely worth a trip down to Melbourne to get it done properly.

Did you ever find someone to do this? I’m wanting to get cosmetic tattooing in the very near future, and was hoping for recommendations.

no its just like eyeliner – for me anyway. I don’t have eyelashes because of eye problems over the years. This is a way of making it look like you do. Noone has ever commented on it, but I notice and it bothers me.

Is this like permanent eye shadow or do you get some small pic or design tattooed on to the eye lids? Sounds painful, do you get a local anasthetic or do you just grin and bear it?

Get the ultimate Public Service tattoo. Get two large wide-open eyes tattooed on your eyelids. Then you can sleep at work all day and noone will notice any difference.

There is a cosmetic tattooist in Murrumbateman. The salon places an advertisement in the Canberra Times,usually in the Sunday supplement.
