Before and After

Clara’s studio is a Health Registered, sterile environment in compliance with all local authority byelaws. Sterile, single-use disposable needles are used for each client. Clara is fully licensed and has specialist insurance for all body tattoos and every micro-dermal pigmentation procedure. Within a relaxing atmosphere created by essential oil fragrances, natural incense, fresh flowers and scented candles, Clara allows ample time for discussing your needs, exploring several visual options and explaining the procedure, drawing onto your skin free-hand and having you consult the mirror several times until the desired visual effect is created. Clara is friendly, patient and understanding, treating you as she would wish to be treated – after all, this is a permanent procedure and you need to know your wishes are going to come true exactly as you wish them to... Clara is more than happy to make as many alterations as you require at the drawing on stage so that you are 100% confident that you are going to have what you want for life. Clara applies a topical anaesthetic prior to inserting pigments, ensuring you will feel minimal discomfort throughout the procedure. Clara reminds you that you are in control of how you feel and can take a break if need be. Some clients even find the tattooing process relaxing. After the procedure, the skin may be a little raised and red but it settles after just a few hours. Nobody would know you’ve just had permanent make-up applied if you decided to return to work or meet friends for a night out. The pigment simply appears darker than it will be when it’s healed. Clara offers aftercare support and aftercare advice so the healing process is optimised.

Bespoke Permanent Make-up Procedures

Permanent make-up will not smudge - It’s great for women who like to swim, jog, dance and sunbathe until they perspire, confident in the knowledge that they don’t have panda eyes, balding alien brows or lips that seem to disappear.

It’s also wonderfully empowering for women who have allergies or poor eyesight – it feels so good waking up each morning to professionally applied make-up which delivers round-the-clock natural, everyday beauty, as opposed to ‘party make-up’ (which is easy to apply on a whim as required over the top of Clara’s natural enhancements). Another not insignificant benefit is that busy women who have Permanent Make-up suddenly become so much more “Time Rich” – giving them back the hours each week that were stolen from them in attempting to perfect their lips, eyes or brows. (No excuses not to indulge in that relaxing facial after your work-out – and you will look gorgeous during and immediately after too!). It’s so easy, you just shower and go.
