Maarté Beauty

Maarté Beauty works in permanent and semi-permanent cosmetics, mainly brows and lips, and also offers makeup for special occasions and photo sessions. Services are grouped under Brows, Lips and Makeup.

Powder ombré brows are a semi-permanent tattoo that builds a soft powder brow, lighter at the front and gradually deeper toward the tail, and can be done soft and natural or bolder depending on the client's preference. Combination nano brow strokes pair fine nano machine strokes at the front of the brow with microshading powder at the rest. Both are offered for dry, normal, oily, combination and mature skin types. Brow lamination is a non-tattoo option that shapes and lifts the brow hairs for a fuller look, lasting four to six weeks.

Lip Blush adds color to the lips for balance and symmetry, and Lip Neutralizing is a semi-permanent treatment for lips that look cool or hyperpigmented, which can also add shape, symmetry and a chosen lip color. Each lip service is listed at $500.

Brow cover-up or correction is available for brows with faded previous tattoo or microblading. Clients in this case send clear, no-makeup photos of their brows, taken in good light and including a full face, by text to 206-395-5552 for approval before booking. Permanent cosmetic work done by another artist is booked as a brow correction.

Makeup services include traditional or airbrush makeup, hair and groom styling, for engagement sessions, trials and wedding days, maternity, family portraits, personal branding, TV and film, boudoir, and makeup lessons. Consultations are arranged by email to maartebeauty@gmail.com with dates and details.

Booking involves a $100 deposit that is applied to the total due at the service and is non-refundable and non-transferable. Brow deposits are non-refundable. Rescheduling needs 48 hours' notice and is allowed once; cancelling with less than 48 hours' notice loses the deposit, and any reschedule or cancellation after the first requires a new deposit. Clients should arrive 5 to 10 minutes early, and arriving more than 15 minutes late means rebooking. No guests or pets are allowed. Permanent cosmetic procedures are for clients 18 or older, even with parental consent. The studio may refuse service, and prices may change without notice. Medical conditions and recent treatments can rule out permanent makeup, so clients are advised to check with a doctor where relevant.

Permanent and semi-permanent work is matched to skin type and the look the client wants, from soft and natural to more defined, with a photo review step before corrections are booked.
