Is Permanent Eyeliner Really Permanent?

Writer's picture: Lucy Enkh Lucy Enkh




When we hear the term permanent eyeliner, we think it’s just that: permanent. But is it really permanent? Can you get rid of it if you change your mind? The answer to both questions is yes. The pigment is implanted into the dermal layer of the skin with a fine needle, which means it will last for years. However, the pigment’s visibility and longevity typically fade over time. So, in a way, it is like a semi-permanent solution to avoid applying eyeliner every day.

Does Permanent Eyeliner Wear Off?

The pigment in permanent eyeliner is implanted into the dermal layer of the skin and lasts for years, maybe even decades. But since the permanent liner is not actually permanent, it fades or wears off over time.

However, how quickly it fades depends on the type of pigment used in creating a permanent eyeliner. Some types are more permanent than others, and some can quickly fade away.

If you are concerned about the longevity of your permanent eyeliner, be sure to ask your esthetician which type of liner they will be using and how long it is likely to last.

How Long Does Permanent Eyeliner Last?

Permanent eyeliner can last anywhere from one to five years, depending on the type of ink and application. Some inks are designed to slowly fade away over time, while others can last much longer.

Moreover, the thickness and darkness of the liner also play a role in how long it lasts. The thicker your liner is, the longer it will last.

If you’re considering permanent eyeliner, be sure to do your research and find a reputable artist who has experience with the procedure. Ask to see before-and-after photos of past clients to get an idea of their results. Before undergoing the procedure, make sure you’re comfortable with the artist’s style.

Can You Get Rid of Your Permanent Liner?

If you don’t like the way your permanent eyeliner looks anymore, you can have it removed, via saline solution or laser. You’ll need to speak with a specialist who specializes in removing tattoos and other body art.

Conclusion

Permanent eyeliner is a great way to save time on your makeup routine. It may be the right choice for you if you’re looking for a long-lasting, low-maintenance option. However, just be sure to go into the process with realistic expectations and a clear understanding of the risks involved.

Moreover, having an permanent makeup expert like the Laveda Boutique carry out the procedure is crucial for getting the desired results. If you let an amateur artist do your pmu, they may charge you less, but the procedure may end up costing you a lot more than money. So, make a well-informed decision to achieve your desired look without complications.
