Common myth when it comes to semi permanent makeup: “I’m worried that the permanent eyebrows will be too dark or the shape will go out of fashion, or that you might not like the shape?”
Charmaine will never tattoo an eyebrow that will go out of fashion, her aim is to give you natural beautiful looking eyebrows that suit YOU. If you’re looking for thick, false-looking eyebrows that do not match your natural assets and colouring then you’re in the wrong place.
Semi permanent makeup CAN and SHOULD look indistinguishable from the real thing!
Semi permanent makeup gives you the look of professionally applied makeup everyday, with natural-looking results that can be as subtle or as dramatic as you want.
The effect is achieved by carefully using a specialised tattoo machine to draw individual hair strokes into your brow line. Often referred to as “microblading, brow tattoos and many more” the techniques used by Charmaine to hone her signature hair stroke style have been honed over many years and extensive training as well as her own unique methods.
The results do fade gradually over 2-3 years, however a colour boost is recommended around 12-18 months after the initial application, to maintain a fresh look and keep those brows looking sharp and fresh.
Naturally, everyone wants to look their best at all times, this gives you this everyday! Waking up with perfectly shaped brows and beautiful lips without having to apply makeup, no smudging either.
We use the highest quality sterile needles, which are disposed of immediately after the treatment is completed.
We follow a code of practice that ensures a safe treatment. We choose to work only with top quality pigments that meet European medical standards.
We want you to be relaxed during the treatment and in as little discomfort as possible, so we use anaesthetic before and during the treatment.
This is why it is VERY IMPORTANT you remember to arrive 30 MINUTES before your appointment time so we can ge the numbing cream on you before we start.
Semi permanent makeup treatment sessions take up to two hours.
The treatment is carried out in two stages, spaced between four to six weeks apart, giving you a safe, comfortable and gradual process. The first appointment is the main one then the top-up appointment 4-6 weeks later is the refining and perfecting stage. Both are included in the price for the brows.
Normally the colour will be darker for the first few days. You may experience light to moderate swelling, and scabbing – THIS IS NORMAL and it is VITAL you DO NOT pick the scabs and keep the brows dry!
After the initial few days, the skin will heal and will begin to gently flake off and the treated area will lighten. This is a two-step procedure!
It may be too light for you initially, but the top-up appointment 4-6 weeks after is when we perfect and refine in order to achieve the best results for you.
It lasts for many years but we recommend having a colour boost around 12 months after the initial treatment allowing you to maintain a fresh look.
We recommend a colour boost approximately every 1-2 years to maintain the clarity and definition of your Semi Permanent Makeup to keep it looking really fresh.
All treatments are carried out in our luxurious salon in Ashford Kent.

All equipment used by Charmaine is modern, and of the highest quality. The skin clinic side of Beau Boutique has custom fitted treatment rooms have been designed solely with the professional application of semi permanent make up in mind. It is this attention to the small details such as treatment rooms with perfect natural lighting that has seen Charmaine gain her reputation for excellence.
Charmaine will start with a thorough consultation where she will discuss your desired look and see whether your brows need reshaping, filling in, lifting, thickening or defining.
It’s a good idea to bring any photos or magazine clippings of the look you would like to achieve. The semi permanent makeup treatment will commence with the creation of a template drawn onto the skin with a cosmetic pencil to get the shape and style right before any actual pigment is applied.
Once you are 100% happy with this template we will proceed to anaesthetise the skin. We will then allow the anaesthetic to take full effect whilst deciding on the perfect colour pigment to use in order to compliment your colourings.
To help with pain management we will regularly apply more anaesthetic throughout the treatment to allow you comfort.
The treatment lasts between 1.5 – 2 hours and after the semi-permanent eyebrow treatment we will then give you full aftercare advice and arrange the date for you to come back for your top up 4-6 weeks later.
After the top-up treatment, you will fianlly be the proud wearer of semi-permanent makeup from Kent’s #1 salon by the most respected and experienced technician around.

To ensure that your new bespoke brows continue to look their best, we recommend that you have a colour boost treatment every 12 – 18 months in order to maintain your semi-permanent makeup.
Unlike a traditional tattoo which uses ink, the SPMU needles use pigment which doesn’t go as deep into the skin of the face. The reason for this is because the colour would simply blur and you would loose all definition.
For your initial procedure of SPMU, you’ll recall that two treatments were required four weeks apart in order for the pigment to take and to give you the perfect finished look.
However, for an SPMU colour boost, only a single treatment is needed in order to reinstate the freshness of your initial procedure and keep those brows looking on-point and as effortlessly elegant as they have been since your initial procedure.
Depending on how the pigment has settled into your skin, you will probably be ready for a semi-permanent makeup colour boost somewhere between every 12 to 18 months in order to maintain the colour and definition.
