nANO ‘Hairstroke’ Brows

(Formerly Microblading) Machine hairstroke brows are a semi-permanent makeup technique where delicate, realistic hair-like strokes are created using a specialised tattoo machine rather than a manual microblade. This method is gentler on the skin than microblading, allowing for greater precision and fine detail. Each stroke can be carefully adjusted and refined, resulting in a more natural, lifelike appearance.

Because the machine deposits pigment with tiny, controlled movements, it causes less trauma to the skin and supports smoother healing. This technique is suitable for most skin types and is especially beneficial for those who prefer a fluffier, more natural brow enhancement.

Machine hairstroke brows typically last 12-18 months, with maintenance top-ups recommended to keep them looking fresh and defined.

Powder Brows

Powder brows, also known as ombré brows, are a semi-permanent makeup technique that uses a specialised tattoo machine to implant tiny dots of pigment into the skin, creating a soft, shaded effect. This style mimics the look of brow powder or pencil, with a gradient that is lighter at the front and gradually deepens towards the tail.

Because the pigment is applied using a machine rather than manual tools, the process is gentle on the skin, suitable for all skin types, and allows for a high level of control over colour density and shape. The result is a polished, long-lasting brow that can be tailored for a subtle enhancement or a bolder, more defined look.

Powder brows typically last 12-18 months, with maintenance top-ups recommended to keep them looking fresh. They are ideal for anyone who wants a flawless brow shape that requires minimal daily makeup.

Lip Blush

Lip blush is a semi-permanent makeup treatment that enhances the shape and colour of your lips, giving them a soft, even tone and a fuller appearance. Using a specialised tattoo machine, pigment is carefully implanted into the lips to create a natural tint or a more vibrant shade, tailored to suit your skin tone, style and desired finish.

A wide range of pigments is available, allowing you to choose a subtle wash of colour that complements your natural lips or a bolder look inspired by your favourite lipstick. Once healed, all you’ll need is a little gloss or balm for a fresh, polished finish that lasts all day.

Those with darker skin tones may require a colour correction session before their main treatment to achieve the best results. If you are prone to cold sores, you should start a preventative course of antiviral medication beforehand and let your technician know.

Your lip colour will appear more intense for the first few days before softening into the final, beautiful shade.
