What is eyeliner tattooing?
Eye permanent makeup is a long-lasting cosmetic procedure in which unique pigments draw on the upper or lower eyelids or particular areas. This procedure uses a tattoo machine equipped with tiny disposable needles. This makeup looks great on people of all ages, complementing their appearance with a hint of transparency and mystery. The exact lines created during the procedure can enlarge the eyes and highlight the natural border of the eyelashes, giving them a more comprehensive look.
Permanent makeup is considered safe and not difficult for a skilled professional to apply. The pigments used are long-lasting and unlikely to cause allergies. Many modern pigment brands for tattooing contain plant-based ingredients that break down in the body over time. The injections are typically not very painful and are administered at no more than 0.8 mm depth.
Advantages of the technique
- Individual selection of technique and shade of blended pigment to achieve the best effect;
- use of high-quality colourants with minimal risk of causing allergies;
- preservation of results for 2-3 years with the possibility of further renewal;
- the completely natural look of the eyes after tattooing.
The procedure's effect
- Your eyes will become visually more prominent and look brighter and more expressive.
- The dropped corners of the eyes will be slightly elevated.
- Furthermore, permanent tattoos may hide tiny flaws in the skin of the eyelids.
- Your eyelashes will seem to be thicker.
- You will save the time it takes to apply eye makeup every day.
Contraindications
Before beginning eyelid tattooing, a qualified specialist will check whether the client has any medical conditions that might make the operation unsafe. Some typical circumstances that may lead to a recommendation against eyelid tattooing include:
- Oncological conditions
- Blood coagulation abnormalities
- Diabetes
- Inflammatory/infectious illnesses
- Colloidal scars on the face
- Pregnancy and lactation
- Menstrual period
During pregnancy, delay the surgery to a later date, and during menstruation, choose a day that fits with your monthly cycle.
Getting ready for the procedure
It is important to prepare carefully for the procedure to avoid any negative consequences from upper or lower eyelid tattooing:
Checking the tattoo design beforehand ensures it complements the eyebrow’s shape. It is recommended to start with eyelid makeup and then work on the eyebrow line.
- To prevent alterations in skin colour, it is recommended to refrain from using tanning salons and limit exposure to direct sunlight at least two weeks before. This is important to ensure the appropriate selection of pigment shade that complements your skin tone.
Refrain from using solid cleansers like scrubs or peels for at least five to seven days. These products peel away the outermost layers of skin, thinning the epidermis and increasing its susceptibility to damage. This might lead to uneven pigmentation that is difficult to maintain on the skin’s epidermis.
The false eyelashes should be removed a few days before the planned procedure. Except for skincare products, long-wearing goods like mascara and makeup must be avoided now.
- Blood thinners such as strong tea, alcohol, coffee, and energy drinks should be avoided at least five days before the procedure. Thicker blood can slow down wound healing and lower the pain threshold.
Reduce your water intake for two days before the procedure to prevent edema.
- It is best to avoid eating fried, greasy and smoked meals just before being tattooed.
- It is necessary to remove contact lenses during and after the procedure.
- You must carefully follow the specialist’s advice.
Techniques
Having permanent eye makeup is a highly efficient way to maintain a consistently attractive and polished appearance. This type of makeup can help minimize or even eliminate the need for daily eye makeup application, saving time in your routine. Unlike traditional pencil makeup, permanent eye makeup won’t smudge and will stay put even during essential moments. Various techniques are employed for eyelid tattooing:
Lash line tattoo
This option suits those wanting luxurious thick eyelashes and an expressive look. In addition, with the help of this method, you can slightly change the shape of the cut of the eyes, which will make the face look younger. To obtain the result, the inter-eyelash space is filled with pigment. Due to its spreading, the sketched line needs a defined border. This method is frequently combined with traditional arrows and eyelid extensions. This tattoo appears easy and hidden.
Winged Eyeliner
This constant makeup method creates the illusion of shade. It resolves natural and age-related issues, including droop corners, narrow eye shapes, slight asymmetries, deep-set eyes, and minor scars. The shading pigment smoothly transitions from a darker tint to the natural skin tone of the eyelid. This method makes the eyes appear bigger while hiding imperfections.
Classic arrow
The design and appearance of the classic eyeliner tattoo may be adjusted to the client’s preferences. The line above the lashes resembles a pencil eyeliner makeup. It is adaptable, matching the natural eye shape or making it appear more open. This technique helps hide small wrinkles, discolouration, and eye scarring.
Arrows on the lower eyelid
Micropigmentation on the lower eyelid might improve the size and shape of the eyes. Tattooing behind the eyes helps hide any flaws in that region. The pigment is carefully placed beneath the lash line, following the eye’s natural shape, and can be applied precisely or widely. This method creates the appearance of liquid eyeliner. Typically, a greyish colour is selected for the eyeliner. However, various colours can be used depending on the client’s preferences. These forms of eyeliner are advised for younger ladies under 35 since they may not look as well on older people and may highlight signs of aging.
Decorative coloured tattooing
The method typically combines various solutions, commonly using intercostal technology along with black pigment and layering another colour with paint to give the makeup appearance with shadows.
Occasionally, light pigment is placed on the inner corners of the eyes to improve the look. The master can help you determine the finest alternative for your appearance. Permanent makeup should last for many months to three years, so the procedure should be chosen carefully.
Stages of the procedure
Before applying the pigment, the beautician will gather the client’s medical history, confirm no contraindications, review the tattooing method, provide many corrective options, and choose the appropriate pigment. There are various stages in the actual tattooing process:
Using the proper lotion to clean the workspace and get rid of any ornamental makeup;
Disinfecting the eyelids with antiseptic solutions;
A preliminary skin sketch with a pencil is created and shown to the patient for adjustments;
Making superficial punctures along the drawing’s outline before removing it;
Applying local anesthesia with lidocaine anesthetic cream;
Performing micropigmentation using the selected technology;
Repeatedly disinfecting the area being treated with pigment;
Applying regenerating agents.
Depending on the complexity of the entire process, getting a tattoo can take anywhere from half an hour to an hour and a half. Eyelid bruising and swelling are possible after the procedure, although it usually goes away in a few days. “Crusts” will form over time, indicating that the injection areas are healing. Certain people may experience a feeling of “having sand” in their eyes. Following the procedure, a specialist will guide you on how to manage these symptoms.
Aftercare period
To guarantee a quick and successful recovery, you must follow the professional aftercare instructions:
- Apply chlorhexidine every three hours to the area around the eyes on the first day following the procedure.
- Use a panthenol-containing regeneration aftercare cream till complete healing.
Kindly avoid tearing off the formed crusts. Let them fall naturally; - Avoid using eye makeup while you’re recovering;
- Use moisturizing eye drops if there is burning or irritation in the eyes.
- For symptoms of slight swelling, use eye ointment “Hydrocortisone” (available in pharmacies) and use cold compresses;
- After getting tattooed, stay out of the sauna, pool, and beach for two weeks.
After a month, you should speak to your permanent makeup artist to observe and modify ongoing changes.
What kind of tattoo will you choose?
If your eyes are tightly spaced and the outer corners sag downward, make your eyeliner tattooing point upward. By drawing the eyeliner from the middle of the pupil, you may create almond-shaped eyes on rounded eyes. The lower eyelid can be tattooed to make the eyes look more open. Ensuring the lower eyeliner is thinner than the upper eyeliner is crucial.
Interlash is the best option for blondes since it offers thick eyelashes and a brilliant, natural-looking appearance. Brunettes and dark-eyed people might use thick eyeliner to accentuate their characteristics. Studio professionals can suggest the ideal permanent eye makeup based on eye form, positioning, and the colour of the hair and eyebrows.
Correction
After obtaining a tattoo, it is crucial to check its condition regularly. The first touch-up should be planned for around a month after the tattoo to enable the skin to recover and prevent further harm. Do not have a touch-up if there is any capillary damage.
The correction should ideally be handled by a qualified specialist with permanent eyeliner tattoo makeup expertise since they are trained in their job and can see and correct any mistakes. Nevertheless, some things might shorten the tattoo’s lifespan:
- Tattoos applied on very greasy skin types do not adhere as well and last just around a year. On normal or dry skin, however, tattoos tend to remain longer.
- The injected pigment’s colour will not last if you opt for a light salad, grey, or purple hue. The short duration of the tattoo’s longevity is due to using low-quality pigments.

FAQ
How long does eye tattooing last?
Eye tattoos vary depending on the technique applied. Traditional arrow eyelid tattoos usually last around two years, but intercostal eyelid tattoos might endure for 2.5 years or more. The effect’s visibility varies based on individual characteristics; some see it for two years and others for five years or more.
How long does the procedure take?
The Interlash technique takes a maximum of 1.5 hours, with the lowest duration being 40 minutes because it does not need to generate a sketch. Other methods take longer since the permanent makeup artist first creates the design and decides on the arrow’s length, breadth, and shape depending on the client’s characteristics and preferences before beginning the main job.
Does it hurt?
Eyelid tattooing is considered safe for the eyes due to two main factors: advanced, high-precision equipment that minimizes vibration and targets only the required area and the secure fixation of the eyelid during the procedure, preventing any risk of eye damage from opening the eye.
What is the difference between tattooing and permanent makeup?
There are critical differences between permanent eyeliner makeup and traditional tattooing. Traditional tattooing involves injecting certain chemically created pigments into the skin at a depth of more than 1 mm, creating an effect that can last a lifetime. Permanent makeup is less painful since pigments are placed up to 1 mm beneath the skin’s surface. Permanent makeup employs mineral-based pigments that are easily absorbed by the body, do not cause allergic responses, and fade away naturally within two years without leaving any traces.
