Permanent Makeup Freckles by Fancy Shmancy: Your Sun-Kissed Look, Anytime!
September 16, 2024
At Fancy Shmancy, we believe in embracing and enhancing your natural beauty with subtle, personalized touches. One of the most exciting trends we offer is Semi-Permanent Freckle Makeup – the perfect solution for anyone who loves that playful, youthful, sun-kissed look. Freckles have always been a symbol of fun, carefree days under the sun, and now, with our technique, you can enjoy the look without the need for daily makeup or sun exposure. Our semi-permanent freckles are tailored to suit your skin tone and aesthetic, so you can achieve that fresh-faced glow year-round.
Why Semi-Permanent Freckles?
Freckles are more than just a trend—they’re a style statement! Whether you’re someone who naturally has freckles but wants to enhance them, or you’ve always admired the freckled look and are ready to try it, our Semi-Permanent Freckle Makeup technique offers a versatile, long-lasting solution. Unlike traditional makeup, which can smudge, fade, or require reapplication throughout the day, semi-permanent (aka fake or faux) PMU freckles offer a hassle-free alternative. Once applied, these freckles blend effortlessly with your skin, offering a natural finish that stays with you through any weather, activity, or occasion.
Our method at Fancy Shmancy involves using fine needles to implant pigment just beneath the surface of the skin, creating the appearance of delicate, scattered freckles. The result is subtle, natural-looking freckles that resemble those acquired from hours spent basking in the sun. We customize each freckle application to suit your face shape, skin tone, and personal preference, ensuring that your freckles look unique to you.
The Application Process
Wondering how it all works? At Fancy Shmancy, our freckle application process is simple yet meticulously performed to ensure the most realistic results. Before we begin, we consult with you to discuss your desired outcome, taking into account the number of freckles you’d like, their placement, and the intensity of the pigmentation. Whether you’re looking for a few scattered freckles across your nose and cheeks or a more pronounced look across your entire face, we work with you to design the perfect freckle pattern.
Once the design is agreed upon, the application begins. Using a gentle, semi-permanent tattooing technique, we apply freckles in a way that mimics the random, natural placement of real freckles. Each session lasts between 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the number of freckles you’d like. The process is relatively painless, though you may feel a slight prickling sensation, similar to light pinpricks. Rest assured, we use only the best numbing agents to ensure your comfort throughout the session.
What to Expect: Healing Process and Downtime
After your Fancy Shmancy freckle session, the healing process is straightforward, with minimal downtime. Here’s what you’ll experience:
Immediate Glow with a Darker Tint: Right after the procedure, your new freckles may appear darker than expected. This is completely normal! As the pigment settles and your skin begins to heal, the freckles will lighten to a more natural shade over the course of several days.
Mild Redness and Sensitivity: For the first day or two, you might notice some redness or sensitivity in the treated areas. This is similar to the feeling of a mild sunburn and is a typical part of the healing process. Any discomfort should subside quickly, and you can resume most of your daily activities right away.
Peeling and Flaking: Around days 4-7, you may experience light peeling or flaking as your skin regenerates. This is also completely normal and part of the natural healing process. As the outer layer of skin sheds, it will reveal the final, more natural-looking freckles underneath. During this time, avoid picking at the flakes or peeling skin, as this can interfere with the final result.
Sun Protection is Key: Aftercare is essential to achieving the best results, and sun protection is a major part of that. Direct exposure to sunlight can affect how the pigment sets, so it’s important to avoid it during the healing period. At Fancy Shmancy, we’ll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing. Using sunscreen and wearing a wide-brimmed hat for the first couple of weeks will help protect your freckles while they settle.
Long-Lasting Results You’ll Love
One of the many benefits of semi-permanent freckle makeup is its longevity. Once healed, your freckles will blend seamlessly with your natural skin tone, offering a soft and subtle appearance. Depending on your skin type and how well you follow aftercare, your freckles can last anywhere from 1 to 3 years. Over time, the freckles will gradually fade, allowing you to decide whether you’d like to maintain them with a touch-up or let them fade naturally.
Since the freckles are semi-permanent, they give you the flexibility to update or refresh your look as trends change or as your personal style evolves. For those who fall in love with their freckled look, touch-up sessions are available at Fancy Shmancy to keep your freckles looking fresh and vibrant. Whether you choose to go for a lighter, more subtle touch-up or add more freckles for a bolder look, we’re here to help you maintain that sun-kissed glow.
Customization: Your Freckles, Your Way
At Fancy Shmancy, we pride ourselves on creating freckle designs that are as unique as you are. No two faces are the same, and we believe your freckles should reflect your individuality. During your consultation, we’ll work closely with you to determine the exact placement, size, and density of freckles to suit your face shape and personal preferences. Whether you’re aiming for a light sprinkling of freckles or a more intense look, we tailor the entire process to ensure you walk away with a look you love.
