Professional Cosmetic Tattooing for Glen Iris Locals

Let’s address the elephant in the room–we’ve all seen those harsh, blocky eyebrows that scream “permanent makeup gone wrong.” That’s exactly what we aim to avoid. Our approach to cosmetic tattooing focuses on subtle improvement that works with your natural features.

Barbara brings 23 years of international experience to every appointment, including a decade perfecting her craft across Italy’s beauty industry. She takes the time to analyse your facial structure, lifestyle, and personal style before creating a look that feels authentically you. Using advanced German digital technology and premium pigments from the US, Germany, and Switzerland, we achieve results that look remarkably natural.

Our most popular services include:

  • Microblading and Nano-brows: Individual hair strokes that blend seamlessly with your natural brows
  • Eyeliner Enhancement: From subtle lash definition, and softly shaded eyeliners to bolder winged styles
  • Full Lip Colour: Restore youthful vibrancy with tailored shades like your favourite lippy
  • Ombré Powder Eyebrows & Combination Techniques: Blending gradient shading and hairstrokes for the best possible natural results

Each appointment begins with a consultation where we actually draw your new look with regular makeup first to check you’re completely happy before any tattooing begins.
