Semi permanent makeup can change color with time. This is totally normal for all skin types and does depend on many conditions. Some of us may experience a slight fading of color, but this is usually due to the natural ageing process. Other causes include:
– Sun exposure
– Skin care products that contain retinol or alpha hydroxy acids
– Tanning bed use
– Stress
The color may fade, but that is not a reason to get worried. The color can be changed at any time by adding more pigment to the skin or by changing the design or even how often you go in for a touch up
Also can depend on the type of cosmetic used (organic or synthetic) or if you have sensitive skin or not the color will fade or change over time due to many factors: sun exposure, aging and even stress can affect the color. It is important to remember that semi permanent makeup is not a tattoo, but a cosmetic procedure. If the tattoo has been applied with a pigmented liquid, it can fade within 2-3 years. If you are interested in getting a permanent makeup, you should consider the pros and cons of each option.
Color can change also because of the subtone of our skin. Each person has a warm or cold subtone of the skin and this can give a visually slight change of the color applied during semi permanent makeup procedure. The same, if we have blood vessels under the skin or fat tissue, then these can change the color of the makeup applied. Also if you are on medications they can affect semi permanent makeup and cause a slight change in color.
It is important to remember that semi permanent makeup is not a tattoo, but a cosmetic procedure. If the tattoo has been applied with a pigmented liquid, it can fade within 2-3 years. The most common reason for this is that the pigment used in the tattoo has not been stored properly and can fade away.
If you are looking for a permanent solution to changing your look then semi permanent makeup is not for you. The good news is that semi permanent makeup is a cosmetic procedure and can be changed if you do not like the color or shape. You can also get a touch up at any time, but this means you will have to pay again.
So don’t be surprised when you see on someone with very warm subtone on the skin that brown color fade and look a bit reddish. Is totally normal and is meaning that need color touch up or the person was not covering semi permanent makeup with spf50 during sunny days.
