Permanent Makeup
Alright, so this is more of an "accommodation" for OT AND ET, especially for those of us still in the workforce or just because. I'm pretty low maintenance, but I do prefer to wear eyeliner. That was becoming difficult to do, as my dexterity and fine motor skills in my hands are non-existent...add on the harder I tried, the more frustrated I became and the more I shook...SO, I bit the bullet and just had permanent eyeliner tattooed on me. It's not an incredibly comfortable procedure -- though they do numb your eyelids, and the poor woman was having to deal with facial spasms and eye tremor. I've had DBS implanted, so I turned myself up until my face went numb...lol. I now have beautiful eyeliner and no longer need to get angry or frustrated when I end up drawing a "mustache" on my face.

Hello: Rena: That is a great coping skill !!!!!!!!! Don't know how our male OT friends are going to benefit but then again who knows???????????? I'm retired and considered a senior citizen but like to put on make-up every day even if I'm glued home to this computer all day. I think your posting this will help many of our OT women because if not now will as their OT progresses and develop more serious tremors.
Thank-you, Gloria
