Method By Emillie

Semi-permanent makeup has become increasingly popular—but with that comes a lot of questions, confusion, and sometimes hesitation.

If you’ve been thinking about it but aren’t quite sure what to expect, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know before booking.

What is Semi-Permanent Makeup?

Semi-permanent makeup (SPMU) is a cosmetic treatment where pigment is gently implanted into the skin to enhance your natural features.

At Method by Emillie, the focus is always on soft, natural, wearable results—nothing harsh or overdone.

Treatments can include:

• Brows (to add shape, definition, or fullness)
• Lip blush (to enhance colour and symmetry)
• Eye Enhancement (defines the eyes and make the base of the lashes look thicker)

Is it Permanent?

Semi-permanent makeup is not permanent.

The pigment gradually fades over time, typically lasting:

• 12–24 months, depending on your skin type and lifestyle
• Eye enhancement tends to last longer.

This allows your look to stay fresh and natural, rather than fixed forever.

Will It Look Natural?

This is one of the biggest concerns.

When done correctly, SPMU should:

• Enhance your natural features
• Look soft and subtle
• Fit your face and colouring

My approach is always to create results that look like you, just more defined and polished.

The Consultation Process

Before any treatment, we go through a detailed consultation.

This includes:

• Discussing your desired outcome
• Mapping the shape (especially for brows)
• Choosing the right tone and pigment

Nothing is rushed, and you’ll always feel confident before we begin.

The Treatment Experience

Your comfort is always a priority.

A numbing cream is used to minimise discomfort, and the treatment is carried out in a calm, professional environment.

Most clients are surprised by how manageable the process feels.

Healing & Aftercare

Healing is an important part of the process.

You may experience:

• Slight redness
• Light scabbing
• Softening of colour as it heals

Full healing typically takes around 4–6 weeks.

You’ll be given clear aftercare instructions to ensure the best results.

Do I Need a Top-Up?

Yes—SPMU is a two-step process.

A top-up appointment is usually required after the initial treatment to:

• Perfect the shape
• Adjust colour if needed
• Ensure long-lasting results

My Approach

At Method by Emillie, my focus is on:

• Natural, refined results
• A personalised approach
• Enhancing—not changing—your features

This isn’t about trends or bold transformations.
It’s about subtle, confidence-boosting results that fit seamlessly into your everyday life.

Semi-permanent makeup should feel like an investment in yourself—not something to feel unsure about.

With the right approach and the right artist, the results can be natural, beautiful, and truly confidence-boosting.
