Elaine Pichet's Artistic Touch

Elaine Pichet's Artistic Touch is a permanent cosmetics practice in Tucson. Its founder, Elaine Pichet, has worked in the field for 28 years and has done thousands of procedures. She graduated with merit from the Dallas-based International Institute of Permanent Cosmetics, and she also earned a Bachelor of Arts at Montreal's Concordia University. She belongs to the American Academy of Micropigmentation and the Society of Permanent Cosmetic Professionals, and she co-founded the Permanent Makeup Society of Arizona. Her daughter, Arianne Salamis, joined in 2018. Arianne trained through the SPCP and was mentored by Elaine.

The studio does not offer microblading. Instead it offers hairline stroke eyebrows, drawn with a machine and no stencil so the work follows the client's natural brow. Other services include watercolor lips, eyeliner (which they call lash enhancement), correction of earlier work by other providers, and paramedical work such as areola pigmentation and scar camouflage. They also offer scalp micropigmentation for men and women. Their site says brows usually involve little to no downtime, while swelling is expected after lip work.
