I wanted semi permanent make-up for a while as I have a very active lifestyle and often don't have time to fiddle with applying make-up. Iwas nervous about having the treatment done at first but speaking to Pam at Lasting Beauty, she talked me through the procedure and I was reassured that I had chosen the right consultant. I can honestly say that I am extremely pleased with the results and would recommend her to anyone.

Queen Nefertiti , some thirty five centuries ago in ancient Egypt, was renowned for her striking beauty. The shape and definition of her eyebrows still contribute towards creating the perfect brow today.
Hardly a portrait exits, male or female, without the impeccably dark outlined eye. The feline Goddess, Sekhmet Hathor , ‘protector of women and the epitome of beauty’ was also known as the Lady of Malachite - the material used to decorate the eyes, then and for centuries thereafter.
Let’s not forget the lips – red ochre a type of red clay, red henna, and apparently even the dregs from wine were used to colour the lips.
History has shown that the Egyptian art of make up was to evoke pleasure and also had a very strong spiritual connection – looking good and feeling good – what great reasons for carrying on this ancient tradition today.
