Common questions

No upper age limit. Suitability depends on skin, health and healing and is assessed individually. Under 18? Contact Julia before booking.

Yes. Menstruation is not a contraindication. Sensitivity can be higher, so choose another date for comfort if preferred.

Lip procedures may trigger recurrence in HSV carriers, even if symptoms were mild or unrecognised. Tell Julia before booking and ask your doctor whether preventive antiviral medication is appropriate. No Lip Blush during an active outbreak.

Tell Julia before booking if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking relevant medication, undergoing medical treatment, have an active skin condition in the treatment area, or have any concern that may affect healing. Message Julia before booking.

Most clients find the procedure easier and more comfortable than expected. Numbing is used; sensation varies from light scratching, pressure or vibration and should remain manageable. It is not promised to be painless.

No. Microblading draws hair-like strokes with a manual tool. Powder brows use a machine and soft pixel shading for a powdered effect. See the comparison.

No, unless a very dark, bold result is requested. Colour and intensity are selected for your natural brows, features and preference. Fresh brows look darker, then soften during healing.

Powder brows — approximately 1.5 hours. Lip Blush — approximately 2.5 hours. Both include consultation and mapping.

First 24 hours: keep brows completely dry. Do not touch, rub, scratch or pick. Avoid swimming pools, sauna and direct sun until healed. From the following day, use a very thin layer of Vaseline once daily for 7–10 days depending on dryness, with clean hands and no excess product. This applies to brows only, not Lip Blush.

Fresh brows look darker and more defined and soften during healing. Permanent makeup fades gradually; retention varies with skin type, lifestyle, sun exposure, skincare, colour choice and individual healing.

The technique is performed carefully and superficially. Usually there is no heavy bleeding, but light pinpoint spotting of lymph or blood can occur. Sensitivity varies — no promise of “no blood ever” or “zero sensation.”

A touch-up can be booked 1–3 months after the initial procedure, after full healing: brows 500 AED / lips 600 AED. After 3 months it is a colour refresh, not a touch-up: the whole brow structure may need restoring or rebalancing, adding pigment where faded and balancing retained areas. Brows 800 AED / lips 1,000 AED.

Covering is not always correcting. Julia assesses first; if old pigment is too dark, saturated or incorrectly shaped, removal or fading may be the better first step. Send a clear daylight photo before booking.
