Lasting benefits: Angela Millar
The benefits of cosmetic tattooing are many.
Not only does semi-permanent makeup save on buying expensive cosmetics, it saves precious time wasted before a mirror.
Cosmetic tattooing is also a life-changer for those who love makeup, yet lack confidence in applying it, and for those who, for whatever reason, no longer have a steady hand using makeup applicators.
Angela Millar is a beauty specialist at KM Surgical. With more than 30 years’ experience in the beauty industry, Angela specialises in micropigmentation, a specialised tattooing process where pigments are implanted into the skin to create a lasting shape and colour.
Alongside the popular brow treatments, Angela also does eyeliner and lip blush treatments, which are bespoke to each client’s face, and desired look. Eyeliner can be either fine or dramatic, according to the client’s preference.
“I take time talking things through, then, after numbing the area, I gently deposit the pigment along the
lash-line with the superfine nano needle,” she explains.
For lip blush treatments, Angela pre-maps and draws the lips, then gradually layers the pigment to
achieve a natural, even-toned and defined mouth.
“Lip blushers can be purely cosmetic, but are also perfect for covering scars, or correcting mouth abnormalities. Either way, lips look luscious,” Angela says.
