Look good even in the Dubai Summer Heat by Lucy Rhodes
While doing my daily exercise running around Safa Park last month, I noticed some particularly attractive male joggers out and about. One specific rugby type caught my eye, and I managed a quick ‘hello’ and felt very pleased with myself when I received a double-take and a smiley ‘good morning’. It wasn’t until I returned home afterwards and glimpsed myself in the mirror… mascara all down my face – I looked more like Kung Fu Panda than fitness queen. Even my waterproof mascara won’t stand a chance with the hotter months approaching!
It was at this moment I remembered a lady my friend had been raving about. Her name is Candice Watson, and she is a permanent makeup specialist from Harley Street in London.
My friend had completed a treatment of upper and lower eyeliner and eyelash enhancement and could not have been happier. Of course, I dismissed this as ‘tattooing’ and a little bit extreme for someone like myself. At this time, I had three options: buy a treadmill for indoor use at home and annoy the neighbours downstairs, scare off eligible men by risking make-up-free outdoor ventures, or invest in semi-permanent make-up for myself.
I booked a consultation with Candice, and she was surprised at how professional and down-to-earth she was..not a tattoo in sight!
Candice explained that permanent makeup uses pigments that will fade in 3-5 years, and she wouldn’t go near the permanent ink the cheaper make-up tattooists use on their clients – this kind of work fades to shocking green or blue. I really don’t fancy walking around showcasing blue eyebrows!
I booked my appointment, and one week later, I was sporting some completely sweatproof and very attractive doe-eyes! I am so pleased with the results I have booked to enhance my eyebrows next month… follow my blog on overplucking disasters and how Exclusive Beauty UAE has just the remedy.

Exclusive Beauty UAE
Micropigmentation is well known as a cosmetic procedure within the beauty industry, but what is less talked about is its important role in improving the quality of life for those whose appearance has been affected through trauma, accidents, or medical conditions, says Candice Watson of Exclusive Beauty, who practices her micropigmentation at various locations in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
Giving them back a normal life
It is important to realise that this is not only a procedure for cosmetic beauty and vanity-it also has a positive impact on restoring people’s confidence and giving them back a normal life after suffering things such as burn scars, alopecia or breast reconstruction.
An estimated 183,000 new cases of invasive breast cancer occur annually in the USA; these fall into three categories based on their location and spread: EARLY INVASIVE and METASTIC.
The treatment options also vary depending on the cancer and the choice of the patient, but many of them will result in a partial or full mastectomy, taking away the breast tissue and the areola of the breast.
Make a huge difference
This is where we can make a huge difference to the patient aesthetically and mentally by replacing the areola after breast reconstruction and giving the breast an amazingly realistic-looking nipple again.
When dealing with patients who have got raised scarring or burn scars we do a treatment called MCA, this is a dry needling and dispersion technique which relaxes and flattens the scar and causes the scar to naturally re-pigment, this is a lifelong and permanent technique.
Alopecia or hair loss can affect many of all ages and cause not only the physical dilemma of having no hair, eyebrows, etc but also psychological issues with sufferers becoming self-conscious about having skin patches showing through hair or no eyebrows (eyebrows frame the whole face and it is very noticeable when they are not present)
Micropigmentation is amazingly effective in disguising this by applying natural-looking eyebrows or hair strokes.
Semi-permanent makeup with Micropigmentation
Candice has been treating women with semi-permanent makeup for nearly 20 years, and it has come a very long way since the days of the painful, noisy rotary machines that would take a long time to heal to the smooth digital high-tech machine she now uses, which is of the very highest quality on the market.
Semi-permanent makeup is now a comfortable and safe procedure that creates a natural and incredible beauty result. It is a treatment that is almost essential to anyone who wears makeup in the UAE! With the incredible heat and constant sweating here in the UAE, how wonderful it is not to have your makeup running down your face every day, to be able to just get up and go in the morning, or to come out of the pool still looking fabulous!
With this, you can achieve any look and colour, so you will look great all the time and save time and effort each day by not having to perform your make-up regime time and time again.
Use the correct colour
Micropigmentation works by implanting a pigment under the top layer of the skin to the dermis, which lasts for between 2 and 5 years, sometimes longer. The pigment is carefully chosen to match or enhance the patient’s skin tone; it is of utmost importance that colour theory is understood and the technician uses the correct colour, says Candice; unfortunately, many technicians have not been trained correctly in this, resulting in such things as blue or pink eyebrows and purple lips! Making the area stand out of the face instead of naturally blending in is the exact opposite of what you should aim to achieve.
Every client is looking for the ability to identify the correct colour and use the best techniques when applying micropigmentation, and these are the main skills I taught my students in my training school back in the UK.
After poor treatment
Luckily, Candice says, I also do removals of tattoos and micropigmentation, so when patients come to me after having a poor treatment, I can correct it for them. Ms Watson, who used to practice in the renowned Harley Street in London, UK—a name synonymous with the highest standards of medical and cosmetic treatment available in the world—hopes that her skills will help to improve the quality of life for those in the UAE with aesthetic problems or looking to enhance what nature provides with the use of Semi-Permanent Makeup.
“I have treated thousands of clients over the course of my career, and I very much enjoy the ability to make women feel great when they choose micropigmentation as a form of semi-permanent make-up. But without doubt, the most rewarding aspect of my job is enabling clients to go out feeling happy and confident in themselves again.”

The Evolution of Beauty Enhancement Techniques
Semi Permanent Makeup Overview
Embarking on the journey to understand the supremacy of the machine method, SPMU begins with a comprehensive look at the evolution of semi-permanent makeup. From its inception to the diverse techniques available today, the world of beauty enhancement has witnessed remarkable advancements.
Microblading: Usine A Manual Blade
Microblading, a widely-known technique, involves manually implanting pigment into the skin to create semi-permanent eyebrows. While it has been a go-to for many, the limitations and nuances of microblading have paved the way for more advanced alternatives.
The Rise of Machine Method SPMU
Machine method SPMU, or micropigmentation, takes the art of permanent makeup to a new level. This technique employs a specialised machine to deposit pigments into the skin, offering precision and longevity that surpasses traditional methods.
The Benefits of Semi Permanent Makeup
Semi Permanent Makeup in Everyday Life
One key advantage of semi-permanent makeup is its ability to simplify and streamline daily beauty routines. By waking up with makeup already in place, individuals can save precious morning time, allowing for more efficient and stress-free mornings.

Dubai Semi-Permanent Make-up: Eyelash Enhancement By Mona Shibel, April 20th, 2011
Semi-Permanent Make-up: Eyelash Enhancement By Mona Shibel, April 20th, 2011
As owner and current Editor-in-Chief of White, I love to share great experiences and excellent service with White readers. A few weeks ago, I decided to give semi-permanent make-up a shot. I have never considered it in the past because I have seen results on some women with semi-permanent make-up that were quite scary. Dark lined lips, women with eyebrows completely plucked out and very obviously painted back, not to mention once black make-up shades fading into blueish and pinkish tints.
Plus, it is semi-permanent…. yes, it’s for a few years only, but a few years can be quite long when it’s something you DON’T like!
However, I changed my mind and decided to try it when White’s beauty editor, Edwina Viel, did an interview a few weeks back with renowned semi-permanent make-up artist Candice Watson. I’d already heard a lot about Candice and thought, why not try something new and different? I knew I wanted something subtle because I do not always like to be “made up”. Sometimes I just like a fresh face look with some blush and lip gloss so having eye make-up done was not on my agenda. But I went with an open mind and thought I’d listen to what Candice recommends for me.
And that is indeed what she recommended when she saw me. She felt that Eyelash Enhancement would be perfect for me because its subtle effects give an illusion of fuller lashes by filling out the lash line. I was immediately “sold” on the idea.
I am an “eye-sensitive” person
Now, here’s where the tricky part comes in. I am an “eye-sensitive” person. I can’t bear the thought of anything or anyone touching my eyes… let alone a needle! However, Candice was amazing and made me feel at ease. She informed me step by step what she’d be doing and what I would be feeling. She gave me a heads-up before starting, and it was much easier than I thought it would be. The sensation is similar to someone gently scratching your eyelid. It was by no means painful. Oh, and I LOVED the results! My eyelashes seemed thicker. Something looked nice, but you wouldn’t guess what it was.
Aside from the actual outcome, what was really interesting was discovering that Candice is actually working closely with the Dubai Municipality to set down the correct guidelines and regulations for applying semi-permanent make-up in Dubai. This follows a lack of adherence to basic safety guidelines, with some technicians actually re-using the needles across patients or for the top-up treatment! That, plus the fact that some technicians relied on permanent pigments rather than semi-permanent pigments, resulted in the pink and blue hues you see going around. I am due for a top-up soon, which is recommended about 3 weeks following the first application. This is when the colour finally sets. I am looking forward to going again for the top-up and perhaps this time I will share some before/after photos with our readers.

Dubai Semi-Permanent Make-up Eyelash Enhancement By Mona Shibel
Dubai SPMU Middle East – SPMU, Semi-permanent Makeup or Permanent Make-Up is as simple as it is effective. Also known as micropigmentation, a term used for applying coloured pigments into the dermal layer of the skin-enhancing Mother Nature’s gifts without ever having to reach for your make-up bag. Women of all ages are experiencing the difference micropigmentation can make. After just one procedure you can have stunning smudge-free make-up that will last for years to come. Treatments Include:
Eyebrow Enhancement – Anyone who requires emphasis of the ‘brows’ will love this procedure and the time saved not having to pencil every day. If you have no brow hair, or sparse brows due to over-plucking the difference balanced brows can make is amazing.
Eyeliner – Make the most of your eyes with micropigmentation. From subtle to dramatic, eyelash enhancement or eyeliner can dramatically define eyes, creating great looks that are long-lasting and always perfect.
Lip Liner and Full Lip Colour – For a truly subtle and beautiful cosmetic effect, micropigmentation is an excellent way of enhancing the shape and colour of your lips. With the skilled application, lips can look fuller and more shapely.
Who Will Benefit?
People of any age
Women who have little time for the daily ritual of applying make-up
Those who have difficulty applying make-up
Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Alopecia and Cancer patients
Contact lens wearers
Those active in sports

Entertainers, actresses and models
