These are the three options for semi-permanent procedures depending on the needs of your brows. Having groomed and nicely shaped brows are very important because they frame your face. No time to draw them in daily? This is your answer!

Wondering what Brow Lamination is? It's basically best for people with full brows that need more control over the hair strands. Too bushy or thick? Allow the experts to use carefully-selected formulas to help soften the hairs and shape it the way you want. You can expect about a month and a half of well-behaved, well-shaped brows after this procedure!

Microshading is a procedure more suited to those with semi-full brows but could use more pigment to even out the look and fill in sparse areas. After the first session, a touch up is recommended eight weeks later. After the second touch up, your next touch up could go as far as two years depending on your preference.

For those who have minimal hairs and could use more hair-like strokes for a fuller effect, microblading is the procedure that could achieve that look. Both microshading and microblading are cosmetic tattoo procedures.

Eyelashes might only seem like a minute detail of your face, but trust us, doing the right enhancement can make such a difference in lifting and defining the eyes, adding a plus to the overall look! For eyelashes, you can opt for either a lash lift, lash perm, or lash extensions. If you're not a fan of wearing false eyelashes, this is for you.

First off are the Lash Lift and Lash Perm. While they're called different names, they're pretty much the same in the way that they are meant to enhance your natural lashes to look longer and lifted without mascara or extensions. A lash perm can survive for about a month, while a lash lift can stay on for up to eight weeks. The perm curls, while the lift, well, lifts from the base of the lash!

If you prefer a more dramatic enhancement to your eyelashes, you can opt for eyelash extensions. In this procedure, faux lashes are attached to your lash-line and blended into your natural lashes for a fuller appearance. With eyelash extensions, most omit eye makeup from their daily routines as this part of their face already looks made up. Yes, not even eyeliner is needed anymore!

Professional facials and other facial treatments are all the rage these days, for the sheer fact that they work. Maintenance does not mean you have to get a facial done weekly. It can be as simple as seeing your dermatologist once a month for upkeep, then leaving the rest to a good skincare routine!
