in the name of beauty....or should I say laziness...

Today I had my eyeliner tattooed on. :)

I have wanted to do this for a couple months now just because of the ease of getting ready in the mornings. I loved the thought of not having to worry about "naked eyes" when I got up and didn't want to do anything.
So the beauty part is that I can look nice without doing anything....
The lazy part is that I can look like I put on make-up when I didn't....

My good friend does this for a business and she offered to do mine....today was the day. :)
It was a tad painful in the beginning but then got better. She warned that my eyelids will be sore for a couple days but then will be fine. I like it already :)

In a month she will go back and "touch it up". Basically add a bit more pigment and I think I am going to have her thicken the line on the upper lid. She starts out thin...basically filling in your lashline so you can see how you like it. It's easier to add more later than to take away.

I'll have to get Harold to take a picture so I can post it. Maybe tomorrow ;)

It's not as bad as you think.
She does not use the machine, it's needles and she uses a numbing cream. :)
