Time flies! It has been a month since I did my eyebrow embroidery (Deluxe Creative Brows) at LA VIDA™. The color did fade away after the first session and this was expected because the brow specialist told me that I will need another touch up session 1 month after the embroidery to make it last longer.
I went back to the same brow specialist at LA VIDA™ as I love the design she drew for me during the first session.
This was how my brows look like after 1 month. My brows still look thicker as compared to the pre-embroidery stage.
The same familiar steps took place:
1 Numbing
2 Design
3 Embroidery
Small incisions were made with a micro-blade to mimic the existing eyebrow hair strands. The strands really look so natural that no one could tell that I had my embroidery done after they fade off in a week.
There was really minimal pain throughout the 30 minutes of micro-blading. If not for the movement of her hands, I think I can really take a quick power nap there.
This was how the final product looks like. It sure is a little darker than the first session with them, to ensure that the brows would be on point and lasting.
I really love the idea of semi-permanent make up as I can wake up later because I do not have to waste time drawing my brows anymore. I get to wake up at least 10 minutes later now. Hehe.
Keeping my fingers crossed that the embroidery will last me more at least 18 to 24 months!

Eyebrow Embroidery at LA VIDA
I used to say that I wouldn’t leave home without drawing eyeliners but as I grow up, I find that having nicely shaped brows is more important than having just the eyeliner on the face.
Yes, eyeliner helps to brighten and open up our eyes but imagine yourself with bright eyes and hollow or short brows? Sounds creepy right?
Even before I revealed anything, my followers have been asking me where did I get my brows done and if I have any discount quote. Yes, the answer is, recently, I went to LA VIDA™ for my eyebrow embroidery done and the treatment is called LA VIDA™ Deluxe Creative Brows Embroidery Service. And of course, I do have a discount code to share. Read on to find out more.
LA VIDA™ first opened its doors in 2014 and when I was there, I could see a constant flow of customers. It almost seems like “if you don’t have an appointment, you will probably have to come back again the next day” – that is how popular they are.
This is exactly how I look like without my eyebrows drawn. Sadly, I don’t seem to have much hair on my brows.
The brow specialist recommended me to do their Deluxe Creative Brows. The treatment is one of their highly rated semi-permanent makeup services where micro-blade is used to create small incisions along the brow line to mimic existing eyebrow hairs.
Individual brow strands are created using the sterile micro-blade and the unique strokes of the brow specialist, in accordance to the growth of the eyebrow, giving us a natural three-dimensional tone. As for the colour pigments, they only use industry-leading natural pigments.
Before anything was done to my brows, a layer of numbing cream was applied to my brows for a good 30 minutes.
For people who are generally scared of pain, you can request the brow specialist to leave the numbing cream on for a little longer before getting started. The longer you put, the lesser you feel.
I only had it on for 30 minutes and had little to minimal discomfort throughout. The overall pain score was probably only 1 out of 10 as I could feel nothing most of the time.
30 minutes later, I was asked a few questions on the type of brows that I like. I personally preferred designs that don’t have too much arch so I went for a Korean design. You know how Korean brows look like right? They are mostly straight. Straight brows give off a softer and innocent kind of look in my opinion.
I also specially told the brow specialist that I don’t want to look like La Bi Xiao Xin right after the embroidery because I can’t stand those thick and bushy brows. Thank god, she assured me that my brows would still look natural after that.
The design process took the specialist less than 10 minutes in total. She gave me an eyebrow design that complemented my features and hair color. I think my nose kind of looks shaper after that too. After all, the design brought my brows closer so it gives off an illusion that the nose bridge looks higher.
After I gave the green light on the design, she proceeded to do the embroidery. The embroidery process itself was also pretty quick. I think she took less than 30 minutes. So all in all, I only spent about an hour in the shop. I guess this can be a lunchtime quick fix for those who want on point brows.
I must say that I am VERY VERY happy with the results so much so that I can’t wait to share the discount code with you guys.
I also feel much more confident leaving my house without having too make up on nowadays. Not only that, I get to sleep in later on weekdays too because I spend lesser time on drawing the brows. It can be very frustrating when I don’t get the brows right when I am only half awake in the morning.
I would also strongly recommend the service to people who suffers from thin brows as it can help to create a fuller look.
The embroidery is said to last for at least 18 to 24 months after a single touch up. The touch up should be done 30 days after your initial treatment.
