Cant believe it’s already been 1 year? 🤍

One year ago, I officially launched Emma May Semi Permanent Makeup! with a lot of nerves, a new machine, and a big dream. Looking back at where I started versus the brows/lips I’m creating today—it’s surreal.

To every single client who trusted me to tattoo your face this past year: thank you from the bottom of my heart. To my friends and family who cheered me on through the late nights and setup stress: I couldn’t have done it without you.

& it's been an absolute pleasure working alongside you 😊

Here’s to year two of waking people up with confidence! ✨

Trust the process: it all starts with orange! 🧡🎨

If you have cooler, unwanted lip pigment, before we add your dream shade, we have to prep the canvas! Lip neutralisation uses warm orange tones to cancel out cool, dark, or two-toned discoloration.

Once the base is perfectly even, the final color shines. ✨

The secret to brightening cool-toned lips? It’s all about color theory! 🎨🧡

Many of my lovely Asian clients come to me wanting to brighten up their lips, but they aren't sure how we get rid of those natural cool, purple, or blue undertones.

The secret isn't just tattooing pink over it—that would actually make the lips look muddy or turn a strange gray color! Instead, we use Lip Neutralization.

Here is how the magic happens:
🔹 The Canvas: Natural lips with rich melanin often have underlying cool, blue, or purple tones.
🔸 The Fix: To cancel out those cool tones, we apply warm custom-blended pigments containing yellow and orange.
💥 The Result: The warm pigments counteract the coolness, leaving behind a beautifully balanced, warm, and naturally bright canvas!

Once the lips are neutralized, we can achieve those gorgeous, soft pinks, nudes, and corals you love. Can't wait to share the finished results 💋

💄 Trust the process

This three-stage breakdown shows exactly why you cannot judge lip blush by day one.

Here is a breakdown of the before, neutralization, and top-up journey:

💋 Before: The starting canvas, often featuring cool, dark, or uneven natural undertones
💋 Neutralization: The essential first step. We use warm corrective tones to neutralize coolness and create a uniform, neutral base. It often looks bright or warm initially, but it is a crucial stepping stone
💋 Top-Up: Once the base is perfectly even, we add the target shade to deliver that flawless, long-lasting pop of color

Swelling goes down within a couple of days 😊

Why I love the combi brow ✨

Microblading naturally dispurses ink as it heals, which can sometimes appear patchy or sparse. I love doing combination brows because the shading adds density while the front keeps those crisp, lifelike hairs ❤️

Amazing things happen when you aren't afraid to invest in yourself!

Leaving my 9-5 was a huge leap of faith, but heartwarming reviews like this remind me why I started. I feel so blessed to do what I love every day.

🍑💋 This lovely client came in wanting a fresh, warm peach tone. I custom blended some inks to her specification, enhance her shape, added symmetry, and gave that healthy, ripened-peach flush.

Healed result expectation: Softens by 30–50% for a natural watercolor finish
