A Perfectionist Behind Every Brow
Anna Ruci's journey into permanent makeup began in 2016, and from the very first session, she knew she had found her calling. She explored multiple areas of the beauty industry before discovering the transformative power of cosmetic tattooing, a craft that combined her love of artistry with the precision of technique.
What first drew Anna in was the eyebrow. She became fascinated by how a perfectly shaped, naturally filled brow could completely change the balance and expression of a face. That fascination grew into a deep expertise in microblading, and then expanded to encompass powder brows, ombre brows, combo brows, and lip blush, each technique mastered with the same exacting standard.
Clients trust Anna not only because of her professional qualifications, but because she genuinely listens. She approaches every appointment as an opportunity to understand that individual's face, their lifestyle, and what they want to see in the mirror every morning. She never applies a one-size-fits-all approach. Each treatment is designed from scratch, starting with the client's natural bone structure, skin tone, hair color, and personal preferences.
Anna holds herself to a continuous standard of improvement. She attends workshops, industry seminars, and permanent makeup conferences on an annual basis, staying at the very forefront of technique evolution and safety standards. She is committed to using only cruelty-free, vegan-certified pigments alongside completely sterile, single-use tools for every single session.
Lasting Touch NYC Microblading is more than a studio. It is a space where clients arrive with questions and leave with confidence. Anna's mission is simple: to complement your natural beauty in a way that feels effortless and authentically you. Her goal is never transformation for its own sake, but enhancement, revealing the best version of the features you already have.
The Principles Behind Every Appointment
Uncompromising Precision
Every stroke, every shade, and every shape is placed with intention. Anna approaches permanent makeup the way a fine artist approaches a canvas, with patience, skill, and an eye for detail that sets her work apart in New York City.
Client Safety First
We follow strict hygienic protocols on every visit. All instruments are sterile and disposable, pigments are certified safe and vegan, and every client is given full pre- and post-care guidance to support a smooth healing process.
Natural Beauty Enhancement
The goal is never to replace your features but to enhance them. Whether you are seeking eyebrow microblading, powder brows, or a lip blush treatment, the result should look and feel like the best version of you, not a cosmetic overlay.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before booking your permanent makeup appointment at Lasting Touch NYC Microblading. Tap a question to reveal the answer.
Microblading typically lasts between 10 and 18 months depending on your skin type, daily lifestyle, exposure to sun, and how well you follow the aftercare instructions. A touch-up appointment every 1 to 2 years keeps your brows looking fresh and full.
A professional-grade topical numbing cream is applied before your session to minimize discomfort. Most clients describe the sensation as mild pressure or a light scratching feeling. The process is very well tolerated, and most clients are pleasantly surprised by how comfortable it is.
Microblading creates individual hair strokes using a manual blade, producing the most natural look. Powder brows (also called ombre brows) use a machine to create a shaded, makeup effect with no visible strokes. Combo brows combine both methods. Anna will help you choose the best technique for your skin type and aesthetic preference.
Two initial sessions spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart are strongly recommended to achieve the best possible result. The first session establishes the color and shape, and the second perfecting session allows any fine adjustments once the skin has fully healed. Touch-up sessions are available for $150.
Microblading is ideal for clients with normal to dry skin who want the most hair-like, natural result. Clients with oily skin achieve better and longer-lasting results with powder brows or combo brows. During your consultation, Anna will assess your skin and recommend the most suitable technique.
Lip blush is a cosmetic tattoo that enhances your natural lip color, defines the lip border, and adds the visual impression of fuller lips. The healed result looks like a soft tinted balm. The color fades approximately 30 to 50% during healing. Results typically last 1 to 3 years with an occasional touch-up.
You will receive detailed aftercare instructions after your appointment. In general, you should keep the treated area clean and dry, avoid sun exposure, swimming, saunas, and heavy sweating for the first 7 to 10 days. Avoid picking or peeling the skin as it heals to ensure the best retention of color.
Yes. Lasting Touch NYC exclusively uses the highest quality cruelty-free and vegan-certified pigments. All tools are sterile, single-use, and disposable. We hold ourselves to the strictest hygiene and safety standards in the permanent makeup industry.
