Semi Permanent Make Up is often abbreviated to SPMU which sometimes confuses people as they know what semi-permanent makeup is, but aren’t familiar with the acronym that is widely used in the beauty industry.
What is Semi Permanent Make Up?
Semi Permanent Make Up (SPMU) is also known as micro-pigmentation and it is form of temporary cosmetic makeup that has become extremely popular in recent years!
Waking up with no makeup on, and spending times before before fiddling with brows or eyeliner is a problem we can now solve using SPMU.
What different types of SPMU are there?
The most widely talked about form of semi-permanent makeup if is course Brows – Microblading and Digital Machine Brows have grown in popularity over the past two years and the trend is showing no signs of slowing!
Other types include Semi-Permenent lip liner and eyeliner, as well as scalp micro-pigmentation – and although new to the market and less widely practised, semi-permanent foundation has been seen in the beauty industry in early 2019!
How long does SMPU last?
SPMU generally lasts from 12-24 months – so you are not making a permanent and lifelong commitment! Generally speaking, those who choose this route are very certain that they will be happy with the look for another two years because they have been applying it the same way every day for a long time and now want a more long lasting solution.
Is Microblading the same as SPMU?
It is a similar method, but it doesn’t go anywhere near as deeply into the skin, as it is performed using a hand tool not a digital machine – this means that it is less long lasting and can also be prone to anomalies caused by the naturally occurring oils in the skin.
