I have been going to Cathy since 2014 for my permanent makeup. She has been my go-to person. The one that I trust to tattoo my face lol That says A LOT. She's done my eyebrows a few times and my eyeliner twice. Recently I went back to her and got my lips done. I love her work. I've referred my mom, two of my cousins and my aunt to Cathy. They all got permanent makeup done by her and love their results. Cathy is awesome. She does the best work. She is very knowledgeable and has lots of experience. She knows what is doable and what isn't. Cathy will tell you if the results you want are not realistic. I appreciate how honest she is. She always is cautious and careful with what she does. Which is so appreciated!! I mean we are talking about permanent tattoos on your face people lol That's a big deal! But you are safe in her hands. :) read more

Cathy is amazing! She just did my brows, and I wish I would have had them done sooner. Cathy was professional, answered all my questions, explained the complete process, and made me feel very comfortable. It is important to me to have the shape and color look natural but also look like "my style" since I have been drawing my brows on for years. She asked lots of questions, and I had complete confidence she understood exactly what I wanted before she began tattooing. I went with full coloring because I prefer the way it looks over microblading. I am so happy with the results and it's only day 2!! Can't wait to see them once they have healed. If you're considering permanent makeup, GO SEE CATHY!! I'll post another pic at 4 weeks. read more

Absolutely Beautiful Permanent MakeUp and Microblading by Cathy - Day 2 Brows - Permanent Makeup Near Me - Riverside, California

Cathy did Micro blading Eyebrows on my eye brows and eye liner on my top and bottom eye lids. I was a bit apprehensive when I got there as it's permanently there. However Cathy put me at ease with her total comfort and confidence in her makeup artwork from beginning to end. She didn't do anything until she asked me with a mirror in hand. She numbed me up quite well and was quickly through with what she did for me. I LOVE THEM BOTH. She did such a great job of understanding what I wanted and not to make me look like an older woman trying to be a kid. My eyebrows and eyeliner are perfect for me!! Thank you Cathy for listening to me and what I wanted and you putting it where it looked beautiful!! I'll never go anywhere else now!! Angel read more

She has a gentle approach and insures her customer is comfortable . I am thrilled with my makeup and would recommend Cathy to any of my friend s who are or would consider permanent makeup . Thank you read more

I got my eyebrows done by Cathy in December -- OMG. I LOVE THEM! I was a bit hesitant to get them, initially, because what if I hated them? Or if the color wasn't right? Looking back, I was so silly. I should have gone to Cathy a lot sooner. Cathy took her time and explained everything in a very no-pressure, no-rush manner, which I totally appreciated. I've never had any sort of tattoo, and I wanted to understand the process. She took her time doing my hair stroke eyebrows, even mixing in more than one color so they would appear natural. After my appointment, Cathy called to make sure everything was going well with me, and my follow-up (for a touch-up) was a breeze. The final result was more than I had hoped for! I went from thinning eyebrows that were getting shorter by the year and were not even, to beautiful eyebrows that look natural and do not require any makeup. I could not be happier! Now I'm thinking about an eyeliner procedure. :) If you're on the fence (like I was for years) GO SEE CATHY. You will not be disappointed and you will also laugh at how silly you were for waiting! read more

Cathy is professional in her manner with her treatment room clean and orderly. She has done my eyeliner twice and was able to correct a prior procedure done by another esthetician. She is up on the latest methods and aftercare as well. I have referred friends to her and will continue to use her for all my future needs. read more

I normally too lazy to write a review but my experience with Cathy is just so amazing. I came to Cathy desperately hoping she can fixed my FAILED microblading After a brief consultation she agree to fixed my eyebrows the same day She explained everything very clear make sure I understand how the session works and also the after care. After a surprisingly quick session I have the perfect eyebrows I always wanted I would definitely recommend Cathy to anyone that want permanent makeup up done. Thank you for Cathy for my new awesome eyebrows.. This is an update review Just got my eyebrow touch up and eyeliner tattoo today with Cathy and I am soooo Please with the result.. Thank you again Cathy.. you're the bes read more

Cathy is reasonably priced and very knowledgable. I originally had brows and eyeliner done. I wanted the eyeliner to be noticeable but not garish. I've no experience in this field and not familiar with application. I returned for my two/three week touch up and requested eyeliner to be heavier. Returned for one year touch up and again, requested eyeliner heavier. I'm still not 100% pleased with results as it barely looks like I have eyeliner on and needing to apply additional eyeliner on a daily basis. Brows turned out good. Unfortunately, I wont be returning because she is a bit on the persnickety side. read more

Cathy is GREAT! very profesional yet sociable & is an eyebrow expert! I love my eyebrows & she did a correction too! Very reasonable prices & doesn't charge for every little thing. I've been having my eyebrows tattooed for over 15 years by 3 different people & THIS by far was the most professional job ever! I wish I would've gone to Cathy first all those years ago!!! read more

Cathy is an artist! She took my eyebrows to a new level! I had them done by someone else a couple of years ago and had people comment that the color was not right, the shape was off, the strokes were uneven, and lo and behold they were right! I came to Cathy from a recommendation of a very dear friend. The 1 1/2 drive was totally worth it! San Diego to Riverside to go from blah eyebrows to WOW eyebrows was a no brainer! Thank you Cathy for sharing your gift with the world and of course with ME! read more

This review is long overdue. Cathy was recommended to me by a coworker. I had been debating getting my eyebrows done for some time, but like most people was nervous about the outcome and the fact that it is on my face. When I saw Cathy's work I realized I finally found someone I trusted for the first time since looking. My first appointment Cathy made me feel very calm and comfortable. She made sure we found the right shape for my face as well as the perfect color. I followed her healing instructions for the two weeks after the initial procedure. After the two weeks I went in for my followup visit for her to perfect my eyebrows. I can honesty say I was so nervous before hand, but was nothing less than thrilled with the results! After two years mine still look amazing and I have not had any touchups. If you are looking for a talented artist to boost your self esteem I recommend making your appointment with Cathy. read more

She doesn't know what she is doing. It cost me a lot of time and money to have my brows corrected. She doesn't measure at all. Terrible result. Go somewhere else!!!!! read more

I'm thrilled with my brows, Cathy does such beautiful work. She's very knowledgeable and pays attention to detail. She understands color theory, especially when it comes to doing brows on African American clients. I highly recommend her, and I'm even bringing my mom to see Cathy to have her eyebrows done. I'm a Licensed Esthetician so I wouldn't just let anyone touch my eyebrows. I did my research, and I'm so thankful I found Cathy. read more

it took me a while to post, but after the last email I see Kathy is more worried about her reputation than seeing and remedy and being apologetic. I have experienced a very vindictive and unprofessional side of her and I am the customer. She's messed up twice now. This time I see why people were telling me not to go back. she has an entire eyebrow on my face missing hair and starting in the middle of my face. the hair is gone and the dye dried Gray. I told her I needed to get the ink removed and I needed my $$$ back to pay to fix this. "I don't give refunds" I suggest you take a good look at her photos and you will definitely know what she's about. I wasn't a walk in. I tipped $50 plus. Just be careful. while I was there another customer was calling to complain. Don't know her personally but PERSONALLY her eyebrow art is broken. The no refund policy for mistakes made on her part.... Horrible way to do business. read more

For 16 years I was always hesitate about permanent eyebrows & friends actually referred places. I found Absolutely beautiful permanent makeup on my own & I felt comfortable with her price, reviews, before and after pics & her very clean well organized place.. so after all these years I just said do it. I'm so glad I did. Cathy knew exactly what I wanted & did it perfectly. People would never believe that my brows are tattooed. Which is exactly what I wanted.. a natural look. Its been 4 months & I'm absolutely beyond in love with my brows & putting on everyday makeup only takes me a few mins now, when that's how long it took to draw them in. I can go swimming, wipe my face & still have brows. I would totally recommend her, she's the sweetest lady & she really knows what she's doing. Definitely thinking of doing my eyeliner next :-) read more

Cathy was incredibly helpful and did an amazing job on my eyebrows.

Cathy did an amazing job. Cathy and I spoke about color and shape before she began. The numbing cream worked relatively well and before you knew it I was finished. The shape was what I expected and looked really good. I healed very well and the color lightened up to what I expected and envisioned. The prices were reasonable, and pain was minimal. I will go back to Cathy when I need my touch up and any other appointment. I would recommend Absolutely Beautiful Permanent Makeup to any of my friend read more

Cathy did an amazing job with my eyebrows! My mom and a few of our friends go to her as well. She runs her business very well and is thorough with clients. I am a hairstylist and I understand (like most of you should) the people who commented on her yelp page that wrote a review, weren't going to be happy regardless of the results. Sometimes with guest service you just get bad reviews! Look at amazon products or 5 star hotels they all have at least one bad review. However, Cathy is amazing with color, shape, and guest service. This is my second time going to her and I will continue to do so! read more

I've been coming to Cathy for years now and along with having fantastic eyebrows I have come to call her a friend.

If and when I need more work I will fly back to Cali for Cathy's expertise! Thank you Cathy! read more

I am three days into my new hairstroke brows and I love them! I naturally have very light eyebrows that do not extend as far in toward my nose as I would like. Cathy made sure I liked the color, darkness, thickness etc and the whole procedure was very easy. There was no pain and was pretty quick. I have my touchup in a month or two because I am out of town but am very happy so far with how they are healing/looking. My mother also has very very light brows and now wants to have them done. The price was right in my budget and very fair. read more

AMAZING!!!! Got my eyebrows done some time ago... and they look so natural. No one even has a clue they have been tattooed! I barely felt a thing... she is patient and you can tell she truly loves what she does. I am a very indecisive person and she helped me pick a shape and color that would look the most natural and she picked perfect! Thanks Cathy! read more

Eyeliner was uneven and was not the shape I wanted. She is good for older women but not for the younger crowd.

I hade her do two corrections for me. She WAS NOT the original person who did my permanent makeup. The girl who did, did an awful job. I thought I would never enjoy looking in the mirror again! Cathy rectified the problems beautifully! One was a black spot at the outside corner of my eye. She camoflauged it. My lower lid was real thick and I felt like a football player with black lines across my face. She added to my top liner & evened everything out for me. I love looking in the mirror now! She is professional,well experienced and even certified by the health dept. I highly recommend her any day! read more
