Permanent Eyeliner

What exactly is permanent eyeliner? The advantages and disadvantages of permanent eyeliner

[jsn55]

It's probably some kind of tattoo.  Anyone who has experienced, or known someone who has any eye problems, will tell you flat out:  DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT.  If you don't know any better, it's easy to ignore the potential harm.  I have a serious, un-named eye disease and lost central vision in my right eye 20 years ago.  I have awakened every morning for 35 years grateful that I can still see.  It takes approximately 1.5 minutes to apply eye makeup.  So 'permanent eye liner' is a no-brainer.  I see these 'caterpillar false eyelashes' popular these days and know that at least 2 in 10 women will develop an eye infection.  Plus, they look ridiculous.  Your vision is about the most important thing you have, once it's gone, it's never coming back.  Losing vision has a huge impact on your life ... don't take chances with your eyes.

I have a friend whose business includes permanent makeup.  It is a tattoo but am told it does fade after a few years - not completely though.   She has offered many times but I am far too squeamish to do something permanent.

Yup - tattoo. Same as permanent eyebrows. I'm more familiar with eyebrows as I know two women who had them done. As they aged and their face changed, the eyebrows stayed where they were and they had a permanent surprised expression. I guess the main downside to eyeliner would be, what if you get sick of black eyeliner, or it looks harsh as your skin ages and colour fades? 

 

I have some Dior liquid eyeliner that can stay on for days, if you're looking for an alternative.

It's Dior On Stage Liner. It has a felt tip that gives a nice, sharp line. Easy to use ... can really get a good cat eye look 😸 or get right into the lash line.

My eye doc told me if I did permanent eyeliner to find a new doctor.
