# How to Use a Permanent Makeup Machine
Permanent makeup machines are essential tools for professionals in the semi-permanent makeup industry. Proper usage ensures precision, safety, and long-lasting results. Below is a concise guide to mastering your machine.
Machine Setup & Preparation
- Sterilize Equipment: Always disinfect the machine, needles, and workspace before use.
- Check Needle Depth: Adjust needle depth based on skin type (e.g., thicker skin requires deeper penetration).
- Load Pigment: Fill the cartridge with high-quality, hypoallergenic pigment.
- Test on Practice Skin: Ensure proper needle movement and pigment flow before working on a client.
Techniques for Flawless Application
- Hold the Machine Correctly: Use a 45-90° angle for even pigment distribution.
- Control Speed & Pressure: Move steadily—too fast causes patchiness, too slow leads to over-saturation.
- Stretch the Skin: Keep the area taut to prevent uneven pigment absorption.
- Work in Layers: Build color gradually for natural-looking results.
Aftercare & Maintenance
- Clean the Machine: Disassemble and sterilize after each session.
- Monitor Healing: Advise clients on proper aftercare (e.g., avoid sun, moisturize).
- Schedule Touch-Ups: Recommend a follow-up session 4-6 weeks later.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Skipping patch tests for allergic reactions.
- Using incorrect needle configurations (e.g., too thick for fine brows).
- Overworking the skin, leading to scarring.
By following these steps, professionals can enhance their technique and deliver superior results. For High Quality machines and pigments, explore QM Makeup’s trusted products.

How long does the lash lift glue balm get dry?

How often should I use the microblading repair product for best tattoo aftercare results?

Powder Pigment
Why dose the ink not colored on the skin after the pigment microblading operation?
The ink is not colored on the skin after the tattoo operation, which is a common problem encountered by novice tattoo artists. There may be several reasons:
Technical problems: If the tattoo technician is not skilled, the ink may not be properly implanted into the skin during the operation, resulting in the inability to color the colorant.
Selected ink type: The type of ink used does not match the tool used, resulting in the inability to color the colorant, such as using liquid ink with a manual pen. Or the ink is practice pigment, it is not professional-grade permanent makeup pigment.
Skin condition: The condition of the skin will also affect the tattoo effect. If the skin is too dry, greasy or inflamed, the ink may not be absorbed well.
Insufficient depth: If the appropriate implantation depth is not reached during tattooing, the colorant may remain in the epidermis and cannot penetrate into the dermis.
Postoperative care: Improper postoperative care (such as excessive cleaning or improper use of skin care products) may cause the tattoo colorant to fade or fail to be properly absorbed.
If this happens after tattooing, it is recommended to consult a professional tattoo artist for evaluation and adjustment.

Do your tattoo numb essence turn brown? How should they be stored?
Because the tattoo numb product is formulated with a lidocaine and procaine base, it must be stored in a cool, light-proof place. Excessive room temperature, exposure to sunlight, or failure to seal the cap after opening may result in discoloration and deterioration of the product, which may result in loss of the numbing effect.
Here are some instruction for you:
1. Keep numb essence in cool place and avoid sunlight.
2. After open, please close the lid as soon as possible, make sure that you have already close it tightly.
3. For a better effect to prevent the open cream / essence get touch with the air, you can cover with a plastic film on the tube port, then close with lid.
4. Numb essence can also be stored in the crisper section of the refrigerator if you are experiencing hot weather.
