Permanent Makeup Machines

The permanent makeup business has grown tremendously in recent years, and it’s only getting bigger. That means more companies making permanent makeup supplies(1mb) (opens in a new window), and more artists looking for the best permanent makeup machine. This is why Ultimate Beauty carries all the best permanent makeup machines on the market at the best prices you’ll find online.

Permanent Makeup Machine Basics

Permanent makeup is similar to tattooing, but not identical. In permanent makeup procedures, artists deposit a specialized permanent makeup pigment(1mb) (opens in a new window) into only the first layer of skin, the epidermis. That means “permanent” makeup is not exactly permanent — it lasts 1 - 3 years depending on the specific procedure, aftercare, and lifestyle of the client. Permanent makeup machines are basically pen-style rotary tattoo machines that use special needles designed specifically for permanent makeup.

Micropigmentation Machine Basics

While you might see the term “microblading machine” floating around, this a bit of a misnomer since true microblading(1mb) (opens in a new window) is done using a manual tool with multi-prong needles. A more accurate term for machines in the PMU industry is “micropigmentation machines.”

Types of Permanent Makeup & Micropigmentation Machines

Nearly all permanent makeup machines are rotary tattoo pens designed specifically for PMU. Many can be used for multiple types of permanent makeup from lip blushing to powder brows, though some are more versatile than others. Some of the key distinguishing factors between PMU machines include whether or not they are wireless, if they have bluetooth capabilities, their voltage, and the types of permanent makeup needles(1mb) (opens in a new window) they can accommodate.

Machines for Permanent Eyeliner & Eye Makeup

Permanent eyeliner is one of the most delicate, precise permanent makeup services available and requires a machine that’s up to the task. That’s why we only stock PMU machines from respected, industry-leading brands that have precision and safety in mind.

Permanent Makeup Machines for Eyebrows

While traditional microblading doesn’t require a PMU machine, other brow techniques, such as the “filled-in” look of powder brows, do. Additionally, many PMU artists and clients prefer to achieve a microblading look using PMU machines like the Microbeau Bellar Cosmetic Tattoo Machine(1mb) (opens in a new window), as this process is less damaging to the skin than traditional microblading. When used to mimic microblading techniques, these machines are sometimes also referred to as “nano machines” or “nano hairstrokes machines.”

Machines for Permanent Lip Pigmentation

All of Ultimate Beauty's PMU machines are also ideal for permanent lip pigmentation or “lip blushing.” Some artist favorites include the Spektra Xion S(1mb) (opens in a new window), the affordable Peak Elara Pen(1mb) (opens in a new window), and the ultra-precise Microbeau Bellar(1mb) (opens in a new window), which handles the delicate work of lip lining with ease.
