I'm TAMPA’S PREMIER permanent makeup ARTIST
Serving the gorgeous Tampa Bay Area
For my entire life, I've always been a believer that brows are the most impactful part of the face. After spending years filling in my brows, getting the Powder Brow service done as a client myself completely changed my life. It is my mission to uplift my clients, making them feel beautiful and confident like my brows did for me!
Aside from brows, I am a mom, wife, an MBA with 15 year previous career in finance, avid traveler, foodie, and book lover. My husband is a USMC veteran so I have a special appreciation for the military community whether active duty, veteran, or spouse.

The hottest must-have service
About Ombré Powder Brows
Ombré Powder Brows is the hottest must-have service taking over the beauty industry! But what is it exactly?!
Microshading is a form of gentle cosmetic tattoo known as Permanent Makeup. It involves using a tiny needle to gently scratch the skin to implant pigment.
The desired result is soft, powdery filled brows in a perfectly defined shape with a natural Ombré fade in the front for Ultra Natural Results.
Benefits of Ombré Powder Brows:
Never worry about your brows coming off again. Ombré Powder Brows are waterproof, sweat-proof, and smudge-proof!

- Custom shaping of the brows that the client will review and approve
- Custom color selection according to client skin tone and brow goals
- Outline and shading of the brows
- Going over After Care instructions and scheduling Touch Up Appointment for 6-8 weeks later
what to expect
- All appointments include an After Care kit with all items you will need and detailed instructions.
- Results typically last 1-3 years before beginning to fade. This will vary based on skin type, lifestyle and adherence to After Care instructions.
- An annual touch up is recommended to maintain. Clients returning for touch ups will never pay for full service, but have discounted Returning Client Touch Up rates.
- Clients must review the list of restrictions to ensure they are an eligible candidate for PMU before booking. They must also agree to follow PreCare and After Care instructions to ensure optimal healed results.
- Corrective brows and PMU removal are also available for those with previous work.
- The shading itself involves minimal pain and discomfort due to the use of a topical anesthetic that numbs skin. 90% of clients state that the pain was tolerable and minimal, while many sleep through the procedure!
- A separate, initial consultation can also be scheduled for clients who aren’t quite ready to commit so they can meet the artist and get all questions answered, as well as get their brows shaped with makeup to see how they will look.
- The recovery process is an initial 2 weeks for the outside of the skin to heal, but full healed results take about 4 weeks.
- The complimentary Touch Up at 6-8 weeks is to perfect the brows and address any issues with healing or corrections needed. In some cases, this session may not be needed.

Microshading is a form of cosmetic tattooing known as Permanent Makeup (PMU). It involves gently shading tiny dots of pigment in the skin, creating a soft powdery fill for the brows, which can look extremely natural or more of a makeup look depending on preference. This service involves customized shaping for each client and produces brows that are long lasting, low maintenance, and eliminate the need to fill brows with makeup each day.
What is microshading?
Ombré is a technique of Microshading that involves fading the pigment so that the front of the brow is lighter and gradually darkens towards the tail of the brow, creating the more natural look that most people prefer. Powder relates to the technique of creating a soft, powdery fill by layering of tiny pixels. These two techniques together create the ideal, natural looking brow fill that never goes out of style!
What are Ombré Powder Brows?
The typical life of microshaded brows is about 3 years, although it can vary due to client’s skin type, lifestyle and After Care. From there, it should slowly fade and lighten over the years. An Annual Touch Up is recommended every 1-2 years to maintain and keep brows defined and vibrant.
