Those of you amazed at all the so called "new techniques" on the eyes that are being posted, don't do it! . For example, butterfly eye shadow, and eyeliner.  If the pigment doesn't leave the skin  (and there is no guarantee that it will) what will the client look like in a few years time?  Blue will always migrate in the skin, and your clients will likely end up with 2 black eyes. Remember some of us have been doing permanent makeup for 20 - 30 years, and when we were young and wanted to experiment, we also tried all these techniques.  They did not work, and fortunately we were not a suing-conscious society then. It is a very different story today. I have Expert Witness statements from lawyers arriving on my desk every day, all from clients suing technicians for bad work.  Many of you reading this will know who you are!
