Cosmetic Tattooing

Powder Brows

Airy soft shading throughout the brow for a consistent, natural result to lift and enhance your eyes and facial structure. A soft makeup finish with long-lasting results. Hair strokes are optional and eyebrows are tailored to your unique features.

Lip Blush

Defines the lip border and provides consistent pigment throughout. Ideal for restoring lost colour and volume due to aging or UV damage, resulting in a naturally fuller, youthful appearance. Or to bring colour to pale, cooler lips. Lip tattooing heals to a soft, sheer tint; for a more pronounced, vibrant look, additional sessions are recommended.

Eyeliner / Lash Enhancement

Smudge-proof definition with tailored lash line enhancement. Tight-lining for a natural and timeless look.

Freckles

Black and gray tattoo featuring flowers, an eye, and a face on a person's arm.

Custom Tattooing

Lexi focuses on custom, imaginative realism tattooing, creating one-of-a-kind designs carefully crafted to complement the natural flow of the body. With an emphasis on organic elements—including flora, fauna, and detailed pet portraits—as well as intricate script, she offers a versatile approach ranging from bold, high-contrast pieces to soft, illustrative work. Lexi places strong importance on client collaboration, fostering a creative partnership that allows for tailored artistic freedom and a cohesive final result, and she accepts projects of all sizes.

“Lexi is incredibly creative and has a true gift for knowing exactly how to position a tattoo so it works beautifully with the body.
She also has a strong eye for colour combinations, which makes her work feel thoughtful, balanced, and truly customized to each person. What stands out just as much as her talent is the space she creates. Lexi is very warm, comforting, and easy to trust, which makes the whole experience feel calm and supported from start to finish. She brings both skill and heart to what she does, and that is something you feel right away. I would absolutely recommend Lexi to anyone looking for someone who is not only talented creatively, but who also makes you feel comfortable, cared for, and confident in the process.”
