Considering how eyeliner embroidery is trending nowadays I’m sure you’ll be tempted at some point to get the treatment done for yourself. After all, why not? It cuts down so much time when getting ready that can be significant in the long run. Though the only thing that might stop you from getting one is to wonder if this beauty treatment will be painful for your eyes. If that’s your concern, then read this to find out more.

For a start, eyeliner embroidery is a treatment that uses semi-permanent inks that are inserted into the eyeliner area of your eyes with tiny, disposable needles. The inks are heavily pigmented and will last up to two years before fading away and the styles are fully customizable to accentuate your features.

Since this beauty treatment involves the eyelids and tiny needles naturally there will be a concern if this can be painful for the eyes. Truthfully, it can be painful as tiny needles are used to insert the pigments into the skin, what more the skin at the eye area is the most sensitive. Hence, why numbing cream is applied before and during the procedure liberally and you can ask for reapplication as soon as you start to feel the pain, all in order to make the procedure as comfortable as possible.

The use of numbing cream is important in the beauty treatment your esthetician will ask if you have allergies to any of the ingredients in the numbing cream, to ensure that the product can be used throughout the procedure. 

What About After The Procedure, Will I Feel The Pain Afterwards?

By right, it shouldn’t be painful and instead just a minor inconvenience as the treated area starts its healing process while the pigments settle in the epidermis layer of your skin. Within three days after the procedure, your skin will start to form a thin film that will peel and fall out on its own in a week. 

The key is to ensure that you take care of the embroidered area diligently from the first 48 hours after the procedure to minimize any pain or discomfort while ensuring the treated area heals for a perfect eyeliner embroidery. 

That means keeping the treated area away from water, fingertips, and products except the aftercare cream provided by your esthetician. 

There’s also a potential for side effects to occur such as itchiness, swelling (the most common), or mild tingling sensation but this is normal and varies between individuals and should go away in a week. However, in rare cases where there’s bruising, infection, or your skin develops an allergic reaction to the pigments you should contact your doctor and your esthetician no matter how or when it occurs. 

To conclude, eyeliner embroidery is a procedure that’s virtually painless and there’s no cause for concern for pain issues as numbing cream is supplied liberally for the procedure. And with proper aftercare, you won’t feel any pain in the embroidered area but instead, allow the pigments to settle in, and show up in perfectly-lined eyes done beautifully.

Getting eyeliner embroidery is probably a dream come true for you and I’m sure getting your makeup done will be effortless as you have perfect eyebrows that will frame the features. That said since it’s a mildly invasive procedure there’s bound to be a chance of swelling in the treated area but rest assured, it’s common and it’s all part of the aftereffects that will go away in a matter of weeks. Here’s what you should do if you have one.

What To Do With Swelling After Eyeliner Embroidery

As the treatment involves the insertion of needles into the skin, swelling that develops after the treatment is to be expected as it’s a common, normal body reaction against the trauma. The skin alerts with the ‘invasion’ from the needles and triggers healing processes such as delivering white blood cells (in lymph fluid) to the area to reduce the damage and ‘cushions’ the skin while it heals itself, draining the lymph fluid away to detoxify. 

The degree of the swelling (either in size or pain) differs and this is the point that you need to watch out for. This is especially the case if you develop severe swelling at certain or even all of the treated areas. That said, even if you get massive swelling that up to a point it hinders the ability to fully open the eyes, that’s still considered normal and will subside in a couple of days. 

The cause for concern is when the swelling you have doesn’t get smaller as the day goes; it lasts longer than 3 days, or it comes with other symptoms such as puss, itchiness, or even fever that it’s best for you to contact your esthetician for advice, pronto. 

Is There A Possibility That I Can Avoid Swelling From Happening?

Likely not since swelling is a normal body reaction against trauma so you can’t avoid it altogether (although we wish for the same!). So the next best alternative is to minimize and reduce the swelling as much as you can and allow your body to heal quickly. 

Start by keeping the treated area dry for the first 48 hours, by applying the aftercare cream diligently as directed by your esthetician. That said, a thin layer will do and overapplying will not make any difference to improve the swelling.

It’s advisable for you to sleep in a flat position with your head slightly elevated to ensure the eye area is not in close contact with fabrics (from pillows, bedsheets, or blankets), allowing the eyes to heal nicely. It’s also a good idea to do a regular cold compress routine to further minimize the swelling. You can place an eye mask (with gels inside) in the fridge and press gently at the affected area. Keep in mind that the temperature should be pleasantly cool to avoid aggravating the fragile, treated area. You can also use a cold metal spoon wrapped in cloth for the same effect, as the concave shape of the spoon fits well with the shape of the eye.

After eyebrow embroidery, it only made sense to have eyeliner embroidery to catch up and trend as well and we say it’s natural to have both beauty treatments complement each other. After all, eyeliner is considered to be the starting point of any eye makeup and surely we want to get as perfect as possible. How about we can get the perfect eyeliner for the eyes every single time then?

Touted to be the next staple in makeup, eyeliner embroidery is what people are looking for when applying makeup daily is not possible with what we have today. The constant rush to get things done, not to mention catching the latest update on Instagram will give you not enough time to get the eyeliner done (and perfectly) every time you apply it. 

Compared to eyeshadows, eyeliner is not as forgiving and one mistake of swipe can either have you do the same for the other eye or just redo them altogether (cue that eyeliner meme). And lucky for us the benefits of eyeliner embroidery are a lot that it actually helps to improve the quality of your life, no matter if you’re leading a busy lifestyle or just a laidback and chill kind of girl. 

Benefits Of Getting Eyeliner Embroidery For You

For a start, having a semi-permanent eyeliner means you don’t have to do the routine and instead can either just do the eyeshadows or skip straight to mascara if you want a more casual, natural look and you still look good either way. 

And there’s no need to worry about any mistakes made as it happens while doing the routine especially if your hands are shaky or not good with liquid eyeliners). What more to redo if the mistakes are too obvious because the eyeliner embroidery is already done perfectly!

As the eyeliner is done perfectly by your esthetician, you can be assured the eyeliner works well to accentuate your features and elevate your look. And yes, your whole look will be improved and dare we say more youthful as the well-lined eyes will make the eyes look bigger and more ‘awake’.

Getting the eyeliner done (and staying that way) means you don’t have to worry about carrying them in your makeup bag. This can be handy not just for the novice but also for makeup enthusiasts that regularly use different types of eyeliner for various looks.

Even if eyeliner embroidery is another form of tattooing, the pigments used are semi-permanent and while it’ll last long, it’s not forever. So no worries if you’re not feeling the look from the current eyeliner embroidery; you can try different looks for the next one if you like it!

And yes the look from eyeliner embroidery is totally customizable – you can opt for a single line that works for a basic eye makeup look, or go for dramatic if it’s more of your style. The key is to simply choose the style that is in line with your personality and look and you can work it from there.
