Dermopigmentation or micropigmentation is a procedure used since antiquity in which particles of different substances are placed under the skin to create permanent designs. In the 1940s we see the first medical tattoos, and in the 1970s the first esthetic ones.

I you are willing to undergo this treatment, you should look for a professional place where they have good knowledge of the pigments and their possible mixtures, and their professionals show patience, meticulousness and artistic qualities, which are all essential to a good practice.

INSTRUCTIONS

Esthetic or beauty micropigmentation is used to fill in the case of hairloss in the eyebrows, to outline and add volume to lips and to draw an eyeline, both in the lover and upper eyelid.

After the treatment inflammation occurs. It’s secondary to the trauma produced by the repeated penetration of the needles to deposit the pigment. Then starts a process of cicatrisation, with a small scab forming on the surface of the skin. After that, the dermis starts regenerating and the collagen in the skin becomes remodeled. Lastly, the dermis is completely repaired and the pigment particles become distributed.

The machine used in dermopigmentation has a motor that produces a to and fro movement of the needles inserted at its tip. The pigments used are non-toxic and don’t cause irritation, since they are vegetable.

Let yourself be advised by professionals, but it’s important to be conscious and able to give your opinion on the change taking place, since it is you who has to undergo it.

EYEBROWS

To get harmonic eyebrows, the professional will take some measurements and then make a drawing in pencil, so you can get an idea of the final result. Then the filling process begins.

LIPS

To draw the lips correctly, there are also a series of imaginary lines across the face that help determine proportion and shape. It’s important to choose a color that’s only one or two shades darker than your own, so the result is as natural as possible and you can avoid using lipstick.

EYELASHES

The process for eyelashes is much simpler, as the professional merely follows the outline of the eyelashes. The only variation possible is in the thickness desired, which is achieved by running over the same line several times. The line on the lower and upper eyelids is drawn over the eyelashes and between them. It’s advisable not to end the line at the very end of the outer eye, but to leave the last 3 or 4 lashes out.

I hope this information has been helpful in clearing your ideas before undergoing micropigmentation.

Let’s start at the very beginning

Before applying any makeup you should always cleanse the skin and moisturize it, allowing a few minutes for it to penetrate the skin before starting. This will make your makeup last longer. Then correct whatever you need to, such as red or blue areas. Use concealer not only under the eyes, but also over the moving eyelid. This will allow the shadow to slide easier over the eyelid and keeps it from becoming patchy.

Foundation

Apply the foundation chosen for each type of skin. If you want to achieve a natural result, the foundation must be the same tone as the skin or a tone higher in winter and up to two in summer. If necessary, and depending on the effect you’re trying to achieve, you can apply face powder.

The eyes

Once you’ve finished making up the skin, it’s time to pass on to the eyes. To achieve smoky eyes, we’ll choose the color black. It’s important to start by applying the shadow bit by bit over the moving part of the eyelid. Pick a brush with tight, close bristles and extend it from the inside out and then from the center in. That way you are applying the biggest quantity of shadow in the center of the eyelid and then bringing the biggest intensity to the outer part of the eyelid instead of towards the lachrymal.

Once you’ve shaped the smoky eyes and checked both eyes look the same, you can start intensifying the outer part of the moving eyelid. Then with a looser-bristled brush, start expanding the shade in circular upward movements. Be careful not to reach the eyebrows, since you must leave a space there to apply a lighter shadow that will brighten up the gaze. You will apply that after the mascara. Choose a black mascara that adds volume and thickens the eyelashes, making the eyes look more intense. It’s important to apply mascara first to the lower eyelids and then to the upper ones. That way you won’t dirty the shadow. Then comb the eyelashes outwards, curving them with an eyebrush (this is the same as a mascara brush but without any product on it). And now apply the lighter shadow to the space left under the eyebrow. The tones can be gold, champagne, or pearl white. This will brighten the gaze.

Pencils

Using a pencil, then draw a line across the lower eyelid and paint over that line with a shadow, continuing it to the lachrymal. This will make the line last longer, and make it look more intense.

The cheeks

For the cheeks choose a pink tone, which will make the face look fresher and brighter. Extend this up to the temple and blur it out over the cheekbone.

For the lips use a natural lipliner only to draw their shape. You can choose either a tea-colored or beige lipstick and, if you like, you can apply a touch of lipgloss to the center of the lower lip as well as the upper one to add volume.

I hope this advice is useful to you. If you follow all the steps I’m sure you will be able to do this trendy make up successfully.
