About Us
Hello my name is Yelena Dale. I am a registered nurse and tattoo artist licensed by the State of Florida and New Jersey. My passion for art, beauty and fashion may come from my father who was a professional painter and artist. I do not know if my genes played the role, but after being a nurse for ten years, I decided to change my career and become a permanent makeup artist.
I completed my training with the best permanent tattoo artists in Eastern Europe: Alla Romazanova, Elena Nechayeva and Olga Sugakova. Quality cosmetic tattoo is a combination of skills and knowledge that are used in face analysis, choice in pigments colours and technical performance of the procedure. During my procedure, I work with highest quality of pigments, needles and equipment. My goal is to give my clients the convenience and gift of lasting beauty.

Services
Powder Brows
Powder brows look very similar to your natural brows, and are sometimes called ombre brows. If you are someone who constantly needs to fill in your brow hair, you are going to love this solution. Since this procedure is considered to be more gentle than regular tattoo or microblading, everyone is a potential candidate for it. Powder brows will last longer than microblading before the color boost is required approximately every 12-18 months. Combination skin or oily skin will always require more maintenance than dry skin. It is recommended to apply an SPF (sunblock) on the brow area to prevent them from fading.
Lips
Aquarelle Lips is the newest technique which creates a soft blush of color to the lips. It was created in Europe and is a modern form of tattooing color on to the lips that is sheer, and nothing like the “lipstick” look of past years.
