Dora Hollos, Master PMU Artist, PMU Educator, Lead Therapist of Essential Beauty Salon

My journey in permanent make up begun in the early 2010’s and quickly developed into my true passion. As a cosmetician, I was always magnetized by new methods coming to life in the name of naturality. Among these, permanent pigmentation always stood out for me for its
delicate but outstandingly technical ways of creating enormous changes in looks, mainly showing up on the level of impressions. These methods of creating precise and soft differencesto achieve perfect harmony always amazed me.

Initially, my drive was fueled by the desire to improve: my demands as an artist were always only partially met by techniques offered at the time. My learning process quickly turned into inspiration seeking. The feeling, that cosmetic pigmentation could be so much more natural and exquisite never left me. Encouraged by the development of always newer techniques, always better at mimicking real life, finding the most realistic technique was soon my vocation. To my biggest pleasure, since 2014, permanent make up is my only job, filling most of my working days. I’m ceaselessly polishing and perfecting my own techniques and expand my knowledge, as improvement is essential in this industry.

I established my first and current salon, Essential Beauty in 2013 which since then welcomes its guests in the heart of Budapest. Here I refined my hyperrealistic stroke technique, ideal to achieve the most perfect, natural and soft finish, which I use every day. Owing to endless practicing and experimenting, I had the chance to welcome a new challenge in my carreer: I can not only be a practicing permanent make up artist, but I can also educate fellow artists to acquire the skills to perform the 3D “Genuine Eyebrow” technique. As of now, this program is taught internationally, and I am already in the works of preparing new techniques and new visions to present. I am greatly delighted that I can contribute to the expansion of the PMU world, bringing new talents to satisfy the needs of the ever-growing number of ladies interested worldwide.
