Hooray for Henna!

Introducing Henna Brows – the exciting, all-natural, brand new treatment, taking the semi-permanent make-up arena by storm – and the perfect remedy for any less-than-luscious set of eyebrows! Tell me more about Henna Brows! Henna brows are a new way of tinting eyebrows that will stain the skin UNDERNEATH the eyebrow hair rather than just on the top of the hair itself, which most eyebrow treatments tend to currently do. By using this technique, your brows will appear fuller, deeper and more ‘au natural’ – and any hair-sparse areas will also be covered up. What is Henna? Henna is a natural dye made from a plant known as Hina or the henna tree and has been around since ancient Egyptian times often used in India and the Middle East for body art. But now this same ink is being used to make eyebrows look plumper and more defined. So, what’s involved? With Henna, you can temporarily ‘tint’ your brows as it helps to stain the skin far more effectively than regular tinting; givin...

Pucker up your pout to perfection!

It’s fair to say we can’t all be blessed with bee-stung, perfect pout lips like Angelina Jolie or Brigitte Bardot or with that to die for hint of rouge, so if you’re lacking a little in the lip-a-licious department, the latest in permanent lip colour tattooing could just be what you and your lips have been searching for! Lips that look ‘au natural’. Many of our clients come to Shamrock Clinic after having spent years (and money) on the latest lip pouting and plumping make up offerings, must-have lipstick colours, glosses and liners – you name it, but still find they’re not waking up, looking in the mirror and liking the end product. The semi-permanent lipstick trend has moved on leaps and bounds over the few years, with not only lip colour tattooing (a kind of permanent lipstick) but also a brand-new lip ‘blush’ which gives you the option of a more natural and luscious-looking pair of lips. So, if you’ve ever wanted to ditch your drawer full of half-used lipsticks (we’ve all been...

Waxing lyrical!

If, like most women, you want to say goodbye to hairy legs, wild eyebrows and an unkempt bikini line, then waxing is probably for you. And the great news is, at Shamrock Clinic, we are now offering the celebrity-favourite treatment HOT WAX! So, what’s the lowdown on hot waxing? Being one of the most common forms of hair removal, and practised across the world, waxing enables you to get rid of unwanted hair quickly, easily and effectively. While to many, waxing may sound painful, and lots of people have heard horror stories of how much waxing can hurt, the truth is that waxing, particularly hot waxing, when done properly, is almost pain-free and leaves sensational results – yes really! What’s the difference between strip and hot waxing? Hot wax is usually thicker in the pot and is applied more liberally too. Like with strip wax, a spatula is used to apply it and a few layers will be applied to cover the hairy area. Over the next couple of minutes, the wax will begin to harde...

How it works: Microblading is ...
