It’s been a hot minute since I’ve reappeared… so it feels right to reintroduce myself- to all the beautiful new faces, and my loyal day ones 🙏🪽

My name is Stephanie, I’m 28, and I take intensive pride in creating confidence through natural, refined Permanent Make-Up. A little about me…

I’ve been working since the very (and definitely illegal) age of 13. From 18–26, I balanced two jobs while completing my Bachelor in Animal & Veterinary Science. I opened Inked By Iris in 2023 while still figuring out where I actually wanted to be. At the same time, I was navigating an autoimmune condition… but when I found tattooing, everything just clicked. Quieter. Aligned.

Growing up, I was a full-blown glamour queen- kiddie heels, rings on every finger, styling everything in sight. A little diva? Absolutely. But like many of us, coming from a strict Greek family, I was guided toward a “secure” path. University was a must. A 9-5 job was significant.

The animal industry was VERY confronting. Loving animals the way I do, the reality was heavy and over time, it wore me down…So I found something that felt like the opposite. I needed science… but I also needed art. And here we are- cosmetic tattooing is the perfect mix of both. Pigment chemistry. Skin biology. Facial harmony. Precision. Detail. A very trained eye. It was an instant YES.

Because permanent make-up shouldn’t scream “I’ve been tattooed”…it should have people asking, “wait… what has she done?” No two faces are the same and your tattoo shouldn’t be either.

So if you like your results customised, intentional, and a little bit elite… Inked By Iris is for you 🤍 I truly hope, in sharing my journey… you choose to share yours with me. Stephanie xo

Cosmetic tattoos are an investment, so remember your healed results rely on :{50%} Your artists skill, technique & experience. {25%} Your ability to follow your pre-care & {25%} Your ability to adhere to post-care routine. Stay informed, look sexy. And yes- your instruction cards have been personally written by yours truely to make sure you know your healing journey A-Z ✨ MWA xo

Blessing your feed with the juiciest Lip Neutralisation ✨🤍 So let’s talk; Lip Blush vs Lip Neutralisation (because not everyone is a blush girly)!

Lip Blush: Your go-to if your lips are pale pink, peachy, or light n**e. We’re enhancing what’s already there; adding colour, definition, and that fresh, glossy “alive” look. Think glow up, not correction.

Lip Neutralisation; for my honeys with deeper tones. Brown, purple, or grey hues (super common in melanin-rich lips or my tan-easy babes ). We don’t slap pink on top and hope for the best… we correct the base FIRST, then build to your dream shade.

The difference? Lip Blush = a little ooooomph 💅
Neutralisation = correction before the glow up ✨

This babe had a Lip Neutralisation completed. We lifted and warmed the lips to restore that healthy blush tone. Yes, it starts warmer (a little 🍊 moment ), but settles into that soft rosy coral within days.

And let’s just take a moment for her amazing attention in following her pre-care 👏🏼 hydrated lips = better retention, cleaner borders, and those extra mm’s on the vermillion? Say less.

✨ Good lips aren’t rushed… they’re built angels. DM to find out which service would be suited for you. MWA xx

For the love of a Combination Brow 🤌🏻🤍 Feathered fronts; reinforced ends- it’s the tattoo that gives. A stunning tattoo for an absolute babe ✨

Combination Brows are the marriage of synthetic hair strokes and ombré ends. Perfect for those lacking consistency in hair growth- especially in the fronts. This honey ‘had’ minimal growth of hair in the front; it’s fair to say we definitely changed that.

This gorgeous tattoo will heal 40-60% lighter and final results with be evident at 6-8 weeks. You can thank me later and book in the bio 👼 xx

Say yes to Lip Blush angels; say yes 👼🫦💄✨

This stunner had a previous lip tattoo completed years ago and was ready for refinement & colour adjustment. We effortlessly saturated her lips with a gorgeous rosewood pink; to compliment her eye & hair colour. Yes my love- we take into account ALL the fine details to make you the best version of YOURSELF. No two faces are the same; nor should your tattoo be.

Think: Naturally fuller lips. Enhanced borders. A gorgeous flush of colour tailored to your unique attributes. Results that are smudge and waterproof. And yes- the addition of a free complimentary confidence boost .. This is your sign to stop overlining and start investing ✨

April is fully booked sweet angels! With a few spots remaining at the end of May. Don’t be shy, come and say hi. Booking L ink in the bio above sweets🤍 MWA xx

If your brows are giving blue/ grey undertones… we’re not covering it. We’re correcting it 💙🦋🧡🍊

When old pigment fades, the warm molecules break down first- leaving behind cooler blue/grey tones in the skin. Brow Neutralisation works by applying a warm, complementary corrective pigment to rebalance the undertone. Restoring its true shade and being able to make alterations to the overall colour long term. Yes- it’s actually that simple (unless we find removing it first will rule in your favour 🤍🫶🏼).

Science > Guesswork.
Colour theory > Going darker.

Neutralise first. Perfect later. Our client was able to achieve a high end neutralisation with extra hair strokes to make them more natural. She followed her pre-care so well- The results speak for themselves. You know where to find me to achieve your brow goals. Let’s make the old- new. Stephanie 𝓍𝑜

The power of the brow ✔️ Princess results say it all. Snatched- defined- facial balance. Eyebrows are more than just replacing sparseness and loss of hair; they’re made to frame you.

Facial harmony is ever so important and it should be your artists top priority to ensure your individual attributes are highlighted- not made to look like someone else’s.

Still obsessing over the B&A. Results will heal slightly cooler and match the base tone of her hair and complement her eye colour. Your turn next angel? LINK IN BIO. Stephanie 🤍🪽
