Gold Temporary Tattoos: A Brief Guide

By Scott Ward


Makeup is part and parcel of everyday beauty routines for most people. It is tiring to have to put it on every day. Sometimes, one forgets or does not do it very well which is a problem for some people. Gold temporary tattoos bring the solution for those who are tired of everyday fixes. It lasts several years and if done right, is a safe practice.

Cosmetic tattoo or permanent makeup is the application of various pigments in desired locations to imitate the temporary makeup that most people use. It is just like getting a tattoo in any part of the body except that in this case, it serves a cosmetic purpose. The client chooses the colours of the pigment with advice from the tattooist.

The most common areas where permanent makeup is applied include the eyes, lips and eyebrows. It is particularly helpful for those without eyebrows or those who there are faint or partial. On the lips, it eliminates the need to use lipstick. In addition, it reduces lipstick bleed and helps in hiding scars. On the eyes, it is a powerful eyeliner, eliminating the need for an eyeliner for years.

Many people think that permanent makeup is risk-free, easy to apply and actually very convenient. It can be, but one has to put several factors into consideration. It is essential to remember that the makeup is actually there for the long haul. Tattoos are always difficult to get rid of even with the latest technological advancements. Therefore, choose the colours and designs wisely.

Another important consideration is associated risks and dangers. Since the process involves creating small wounds on the skin, there is a risk for infection. In addition, they are especially vulnerable to certain wavelengths of the suns radiation. Use of unsterilized equipment puts one at high risk of hepatitis and other blood-borne infections.

Due to the risks involved, it is very important to get the best beauty therapist to perform the procedure. It is not a procedure you want to bet or wait on your chances. The right aesthetician should be well trained and licensed. If possible get recommendations from a cosmetic surgeon. Also, be sure to cross check their credentials and also before-after pictures of former clients. Their work on former clientele can be insightful into what to expect. Also, their place of operation should be up to par with standards.

The process of applying permanent makeup is rather easy. The tattooist first sterilizes the region they will be working on. Then, he or she uses a needle to draw an outline of the tattoo that will be inscribed. A second needle is used to apply pigment to the skin layers. The pigment gets into the hole that the needle makes each time it penetrates the skin.

Immediately after the process, the colour is dark and almost looks blotched. It takes up to three weeks to take in the right colour. It is important to take great care of the tattoo until it heals. Use the right antibiotic cream and also avoid petroleum-based lotions or moisturizers. Protect it from the sun as it is very sensitive at this point.
