Faces by Carly – Makeup Artist, Microblading & Permanent Makeup

FEEL NOT ONLY BEAUTIFUL BUT
EMPOWERED IN YOUR OWN SKIN

Hi I’m Carly,

My lifelong passion has always been makeup! Much of my childhood was spent dancing in competitions and wearing makeup to perform was always so much fun for me! As I got older, all my girlfriends would always ask me to do their makeup for homecoming and prom. I loved it so much that I then decided to make it my career and attend Cosmetology School my last two years of high school. After graduating, I was lucky enough to attend Joe Blasco makeup school in Orlando, followed by a full time career in Cosmetics for the next 10 years, while also freelancing for Weddings and Events.

After years behind the counter painting faces, I felt Permanent Makeup was that next level I needed to advance my career and the quality of my work. After a lot of practice, and continuing education over the past six years, I can proudly say that I have perfected my craft in Microblading and Permanent Makeup.

As much as I love the art of this work, my favorite part is being able to enhance ones natural beauty. Being a mother of two growing daughters who look up to me, it is ever so important to me that I play my part in empowering you to feel more beautiful, and more confident in your skin. Not to mention helping you “get ready” in half the time!

I cannot wait to meet you and discuss your Permanent Makeup dreams and make them a reality!

PERMANENT MAKEUP

Microblading – $625

“Microblading” is a semi-permanent technique that is performed with a hand tool, also know as a “Microblade”- that creates crisp, natural looking hairstrokes. No shading is involved with this treatment. Two sessions are necessary, 6-8 weeks apart. Microblading is not suitable for all skin types. This technique works best for normal to dry skin types. It is not ideal for oily skin, or mature skin. This technique will heal the most natural in the skin.

Treatment time: about 2 hours. Lasts about 12-18 months.

Combo Brows – $725

“Combo Brows” are a semi-permanent hybrid technique that includes either Microblading hairstrokes, or Nano hairstrokes (depending on which is most suitable for your skin) combined with a shading technique that blends your natural brows fluidly with your new shape. This combination is best suited for normal to dry skin types, some mature skin types and slightly oily skin types. Two sessions are necessary, 6-8 weeks apart and will heal soft and natural in the skin.

Treatment time: about 2.5 hours. Lasts about 18-24 months.

Powder Brows – $725

“Powder Brows” are a semi-permanent shading technique that gives a more “powdery” makeup look. No hairstrokes are involved with this treatment. Two treatments are necessary, 6-8 weeks apart. This technique is suitable for any skin type. The healed result is powdery and soft.

Treatment time: about 2.5 hours. Lasts about 18-24 months.

Nano Brows – $750

“Nano Brows” are a semi-permanent technique that creates natural looking hairstrokes, similar to Microblading, but achieved with a fine, single needle. The needle implants slightly deeper in the skin and heals softly. This technique requires two treatments, 6-8 weeks apart. Suitable for all skin types, especially mature skin. This technique is a beautiful option for clients who want natural looking brows, but not suited for Microblading.

Treatment time: about 2.5-3 hours. Lasts about 18-24 months.

Lip Blush – $725

“Lip Blush” is a semi-permanent technique designed to enhance and/or restore the natural lip color, define the shape of the lips, and correct symmetry. This treatment is suitable for most skin types, and for those who feel they have lost definition and color. Best suited for pale/fair lip tones.

Two treatments are necessary, 6-8 weeks apart. Treatment time: about 2.5 hours. Lasts about 2-3 years.

Dark Lip Neutralization- $775

“Dark Lip Neutralization” is a specialized technique that is designed for those with darker pigmented lips. Lips that are two toned, cool or brown in color. Results are typically achieved in two treatments, 8 weeks apart. Additional treatments may be necessary. Additional treatments after initial two are $150 per treatment.

Treatment time: 3 hours. Lasts about 2-3 years.

Removal/Correction- $250 per treatment.

“Removal/Correction” is a saline removal/lightening treatment used with an all natural saline solution. The saline solution is implanted in to the pigmented area, and through osmosis, the pigment rises to the surface of the skin, resulting in scabbing, falls off naturally (PLEASE NO PICKING). Picking, especially during the healing of removal can result in scarring. Removal/Correction can be used for brows, lips, small tattoos, and sometimes eyeliner.

Treatment time: about 1.5 hours. Multiple sessions are necessary depending on what is needed. All removal sessions are 8 weeks apart.

***PLEASE NOTE***

All clients with any previous work, or existing pigment MUST first start with a consultation. Depending on desired results, most “corrections” are best achieved with a least one removal session.

client before & afters

A week ago Carly did my Permanent Microblading on my eyebrows, I waited a week to explain how the Post care was for me. First of all from the first moment I saw myself when she finished her work of art I loved it. In the process that she was working on my eyebrows, I did not feel discomfort, it was relaxing with beautiful music in the background, She gave me instructions, which I followed step by step and explained what I could feel after the procedure. Honestly I forgot that I had the procedure done because I never felt discomfort and the best thing is everyone tells me how beautiful I look but they do not know what the change is (which I like because it was a subtle and natural change). I asked her to showcase my natural eyebrows. Carly is very professional and experienced. She chose the best color that goes with my skin tone. Now my eyebrows are with better shape and fuller, I look and feel beautiful.

Q&A

Permanent makeup is a form of cosmetic tattooing also known as micro-pigmentation, which mimics the look of just-applied lipstick, eyebrow pencil and eyeliner. Using tattoo techniques to apply designs that would resemble makeup. It is virtually the same thing as getting a traditional tattoo, using a device to implant ink into the dermis,(the deeper layers of the skin).

Microblading is a manual method of implanting hair-like strokes in the epidermis (the upper layers of the skin) to create the look of fuller, fluffier, more, natrual-looking brows. This technique is considered semi-permanent, and because the pigment sits so superficially in the skin, the strokes are sharp, crisp, and mimic the look of real hair!

Both types of treatments require two visits, your initial visit, as well as a touch up treatment 6-8 weeks later. Our bodies naturally try to reject the pigment that is implanted into the skin, it sees it as a foreign object and tries to push it out, kind of like a splinter. You may lose some hair strokes here, a little pigment there, etc.. After your second treatment, also known as your touch-up appointment, we will reinforce any lost pigment, hair strokes, and will also have the ability to alter the color and/or shape if needed. Permanent makeup brows, eyeliner and lips can last anywhere from 3-5 years, depending on the environmental exposure they receive. Microblading lasts 18-24 months, and thanks to the semi-permanent application technique, you have the beauty of changing your brow shape as trends change.

My main goal is to give you beautiful brows, eyeliner, and lips, but I also strive to keep you as comfortable as possible! I use two separate numbing agents; your initial topical numbing cream, as well as a second topical gel (this only works on broken skin (once we start tattooing/microblading) which is also used as an antiseptic and keeps your skin calm from any swelling.

I perform all of my services at the beautiful Salon Lofts in Westchase/Tampa, FL, Tuesday- Saturday. You can call to schedule appointments with me at 813.713.5082.
