Permanent makeup is a cosmetic tattooing technique where pigment is implanted into the skin to enhance features like brows, eyes, and lips. Unlike traditional tattoos, PMU uses specialized pigments and equipment designed for more delicate skin and subtle, natural-looking results.

All Perma Blend pigments are proudly made in the USA in an ISO-certified facility, ensuring the highest standards of quality, consistency, and safety.

We’ve streamlined our product lineup to better serve artist preferences and simplify inventory for our partners. The 15ml (½ oz) size is now the standard for optimal value and usability.

Perma Blend pigments are known for their high pigment load, rich opacity, and smooth flow. We’re backed by over a decade of experience, global safety certifications, and a relentless focus on artist support, innovation, and education.

Perma Blend pigments are classified as permanent, though they will soften and fade over time depending on skin type, technique, and aftercare.

Yes. Some Perma Blend pigments are pre-modified, meaning they’re formulated with color balance in mind and often don’t require additional adjustment for a wide range of skin tones.

Results typically last 1–3 years, depending on skin type, pigment choice, placement, and aftercare. Touch-ups help maintain shape and color vibrancy over time.

Organic pigments are carbon-based and offer vibrant, long-lasting colors. Inorganic pigments are mineral-based and typically provide softer tones that tend to fade more quickly. Hybrid pigments combine both for better color balance, saturation, and performance across skin types.

Yes. Perma Blend pigments are designed to flow easily, deposit consistently, and heal predictably—making them an excellent choice for beginners when paired with proper training.

Results vary by individual but generally last 1–3 years. Factors like skin type, lifestyle, and pigment color all play a role.

PMU is safe when performed by a licensed, experienced professional using sterile tools and high-quality pigments. Minor swelling or redness is common; rare risks include infection or allergic reactions.

Most clients experience mild discomfort. Topical numbing agents are typically used to minimize any pain during the procedure.

Prices vary based on the artist’s experience, location, and the type of service. On average, treatments range from $300 to $800+.

Skin takes 12 weeks to heal fully and expose the true “healed results.” Expect slight redness, scabbing, and fading before the final healed result is visible. Aftercare is key for best results.

It is not recommended to undergo PMU procedures while pregnant or breastfeeding due to potential risks and lack of definitive research.

Absolutely. A consultation with your artist will help determine the best color and shape for your features and skin tone.

Look for certifications, reviews, healed results, and experience. Don’t hesitate to ask about training, pigments, and equipment if in doubt.

Natural pigment materials can vary slightly between batches. While color may look different in the bottle, healed results remain consistent thanks to rigorous testing and color matching.

When applied correctly, Perma Blend pigments are formulated to heal true-to-color and resist undesired shifting. Incorrect technique or pigment selection can cause color changes.

Proper pigment selection, skin undertone consideration, technique, and aftercare all play a role. Always follow the manufacturer’s usage recommendations.

We offer pigments across all undertones—cool, warm, and neutral—so artists can customize for every client and skin tone.

Touch-ups are typically recommended 10-12 weeks after the initial session and then every 1–3 years, depending on client preference and pigment retention.

Some pigments contain iron oxides. Nickel may be present in trace amounts but well below regulated thresholds. Refer to each pigment’s Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for full details.

Perma Blend pigments include both organic and inorganic components. We label pigments transparently, so artists can choose based on their preferences.

Some medications (e.g., blood thinners, Accutane) may impact healing or increase risk. Clients should always consult with their physician before treatment.

A patch test can help identify sensitivities. While rare, allergic reactions are possible and should be evaluated by a medical professional.

With physician approval, yes. Artists should evaluate healing risks and proceed cautiously, especially with diabetic clients or sensitive skin conditions.

Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Always seal the cap tightly after use.

Yes, though results vary based on the age, saturation, and tone of the old tattoo. Color correction may be required before full coverage.

Avoid exposing pigments to extreme heat or freezing temperatures, which may alter consistency or separation.

No. While similar in concept, PMU pigments are specifically formulated for facial skin and tend to soften and fade more naturally over time.

Not always. Many are pre-modified for universal use. However, modifiers may be needed for color correction or specific undertone balancing.

A cool or olive-based corrector like Olive Corrector may help. Always assess undertone and healed pigment before choosing a correction color.

Thick shading solution contains more glycerin to fit artist preferences.

Dilution is based on artist preference. For example, Anne Marie Rubino prefers to always dilute her brow pigments to achieve a softer, more natural-looking brow.

Healing typically lasts 7–14 days. Clients may experience light scabbing, tenderness, and pigment softening. Aftercare guidelines provided by the artists must be followed closely.

Yes, but wait 10–14 days before applying makeup over treated areas to avoid infection or irritation.

Perma Blend pigments are designed to heal true-to-color and resist common shifting. However, fading or tone change can occur based on skin type, technique, or sun exposure.
