9:15am-10:30am  Exploring Color Adjustments and Corrections
Enter the client who has a color that requires change. Is this an anticipated adjustment based on a conservative initial color selection? Is this considered a correction because of the manner in which a pigment aged or an incorrect selection of initial color for a particular skin tone? Could poor pigment quality be the culprit? Come and learn solutions from a color expert. Marjorie has dedicated much investigative effort to address these issues and how to simplify the color change process.

Building Your Business in Today’s Trying Times

Networking and building your business can often be one of the most complicated and exhausting tasks facing both the new as well as the seasoned practitioner of permanent cosmetics. This subject is one that many speakers avoid. There are very important and necessary “building blocks” for building a successful business. The “building block” clues (and how to apply them in sequence to your business) will certainly help you achieve a satisfying and successful career.

Evolution of the Soft Shaded Eyeliner- Newest Application

LiZa Sims will present the latest techniques for creating shadowed eyeliner in graduated intensity to produce a soft shaded look for those who desire a truly soft custom effect. The healed result of this eyeliner can be worn without mascara and still look terrific! Advice on speed, pressure and eye control for optimum results will be illustrated and needle configurations for all modalities will be recommended. This procedure has evolved over the years and the exciting new technique has proven to be less traumatic to the eyelid.
 

 

Liza Sims, CPCP
At age twenty-eight, self-employed with her own Civil Engineering firm, LiZa first heard of permanent eyeliner. A doctor performed her eyeliner under anesthesia, used metal eyelid clamps that caused profuse bleeding, swelling and bruising. But, even with the discomfort, she was eager to have permanent eyeliner! The rest is history – LiZa has been an advocate of this industry since 1987 and is a highly regarded SPCP trainer member as well as serving on the SPCP Board as the Communications Director.
2:45pm - 3:45pm Recreate, Repair, or Replicate
When our clients come to us and ask us to do “magic”, what exactly is it we are supposed to do? With information and humor, Penny Rudy will examine and honestly share what our role is with our clients. Whether it is technician, artist, counselor, analyst, magician or a combination of any or all, Penny will show and share pictures and stories of her own clients and share how to achieve the very best results regardless of what project presents itself to us. Do we really want to give our clients what they "think" they want? We'll explore this together!
