The day is FINALLY here! We are sharing ALLLL about our eyebrows that we get asked about all of the time! You all may have remembered that we got microblading a couple years ago at Enlighten MD, but now, they are offering a new technique: Permanent Eyebrow Cosmetics! We will be sharing all the must-knows about them, but before we get into that, we wanted to talk about how much we LOVE the results! We never have to pencil in our brows and they always look incredible. We get asked at least once a day where we got them done, or how great our brows look, so that is a good sign, right?!
We seriously cannot recommend it enough! Hopefully all of this information helps, and don’t forget to check out the video at the bottom of the post!
WHAT IS PERMANENT COSMETICS?
Permanent Cosmetics is a form of cosmetic tattoo. Pigment is applied to desired areas, enhancing your natural beauty. We use a permanent makeup machine to apply color and there are several options to achieve gorgeous and symmetrical eyebrows, and we also offer permanent makeup solutions for: eyeliner, lash enhancement, and lipstick.
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF EYEBROW SOLUTIONS?
- Micro-Feathering: Small strokes are placed where your natural brow hair is thinning. This is done on someone who has full brows, but needs filling in on small areas (what we got!)
- Powder Brow: A shadow of color is applied to the backdrop of the brow. This is a shading technique.
- Hair Stroke: An eyebrow is created where there is little to no hair, giving you a natural hair-like look. This technique is done throughout the brow to create fullness.
BEFORE AND AFTER BROWS:
DOES IT HURT?
It does not hurt in our options. They use a typical numbing cream before to help with any pain or discomfort!
HOW MANY APPLICATIONS ARE NEEDED?
Two applications are needed. The initial appointment, and then another application 6 weeks later.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE:
It takes about one hour to one and half hours per application.
HOW LONG IS THE RECOVERY?
There recovery is 7-14 days. Honestly, we din’t have any downtime, just a little bit of itching in the beginning.
HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
It should last for 3-5 years.
WHERE DID WE GO TO GET IT DONE?
We went to Enlighten MD, Channing Leavelle Bartlee
WHAT OTHER PERMANENT MAKEUP CAN YOU DO?
- Lip Blushing Tattoo: Ink is used to add a lip color, helping to bring color back to lips giving a soft and natural tone.
- Eyelash Enhancement: Ink is used to fill in space between each lash, making them appear fuller.
- Eyeliner Tattoo: Ink is used above the eyelashes and or below the eye, mimicking the look of eyeliner.

As many of y’all know we are super petite, aka 5’1″, so finding denim that fits us well can be a struggle! When we stumbled upon 
We paired it with 
We wanted to share some of our favorite
And, since we are on the topic of the perfect fit, we wanted to talk about what we think the “perfect fit” is in a relationship, and why it is so important to us, and why we think it should important to you as well ;) 
Obviously we both have been in relationships, and have learned so much from all of them! We know dating can be hard, and not the most fun at times, but you have to do it to figure out what you want and don’t want in a relationship. We both honestly keep our private life, well, pretty private, but this is something we want to open up about a little bit. You may think you have fun with someone and could see yourself spending a lot of time with them, but sometimes that isn’t enough. We both think the foundation for a great relationship is dating and being with someone that you’re a perfect fit with. 
You’re probably wondering, “Well, what does that even mean?” To us, that means being with someone that you have something in common with, and not just loving to workout and eat. Yes, those are important, but it also about values. Having common interests, sharing the same values and beliefs, similar life goals, etc. It may not seem that important in the beginning, but you will find out sooner than later, that it really is. We personally don’t believe in the theory that “opposites attract”. It may work for some people, but generally, for us, we both would prefer to be with people that are similar to us. Of course, you’re not going to be identical to your partner, but similar is what works best for us!
You want to be with someone that compliments you in the best way possible. We aren’t talking about getting actual compliments from someone. We are talking about being with someone that makes you a better person, brings out the best qualities in you, and just makes you better overall. We have both been in relationships where we make that person better, and more positive all around, but we haven’t necessarily gotten that on our ends. It is important that BOTH people are getting that benefit. 
When you’re with the “perfect fit”, it should feel like you’re hanging out with your good friend, and it just flows. It shouldn’t feel forced at all. Of course, it is not all rainbows and sunshine, but it really should be mutually beneficial. The other person should make you want to be better, and not change yourself in any way. For example, you may dislike running, but maybe they will inspire you to get more into running and train with you (speaking from personal experience ;) ) 
Happy Monday! We are currently in Grand Cayman on our annual trip with our parents, and have gotten so many DMs about hotels and recommendations, so you can check those out
We would go out on occasion (usually when other people wanted to), and there is nothing wrong with going out, but it isn’t for everyone! We both would usually prefer to stay in, or go for a quiet dinner somewhere! We think it honestly starts with surrounding yourself with people that may not want to go out ever single weekend. We promise there are people out there that feel the same way you do, you just have to put in the effort to look for them!
