Savvy Cosmetics

After being referred to Harumi from two close girlfriends, I decided to have my eyebrows micro blade tattooed as well as my upper eyeliner. I was a bit nervous, but Harumi was very thorough in her explanations about both procedures. We discussed my goals for both and she provided her expert opinions (because I asked for them – not because she was pushing them on me)! The pain was tolerable, and Harumi was very attentive during the procedures to make sure I wasn’t feeling too much discomfort. She noticed every flinch and took breaks when she knew I needed them. I just had my free touch-​up done a few days ago, and again, I received the same excellent service and attention from Harumi. I barely had any swelling and I am so pleased with the results! Her store is located inside the Seattle Uwajimaya… super convenient with validated parking and her store and work area are very clean and comforting!

I just got my eyebrows done and was told i can get a retouch free. The first time I had it done it was to light so i went in today for a retouch, I was extremely disappointed with the final result, both sides were uneven. One side was thicker and longer. To top things off the so called free retouch ended up costing me further $ 300. So for a normal solid eyebrow tattoo, i ended up spending as much as doing a more expensive 3d eyebrow tattoo.
Very upset and very disappointed.

I was losing my eyebrow hair and no doctors can figure it out. My thyroid level is excellent, my health is excellent. The summer is coming and I know when I sweat, my makeup eyebrow always disappears. After long research and consideration, I decided that I need some sort of permanent solution since I love beach, walking out in the hot weather and exercising.
May I be so pleased to say what an amazing job Harumi san did. She is very nice yet very direct and straight forward, so you can ask her for her opinion on what you would like to do and she will tell you if it is a good idea or not so much. The price is very well worth paying for it if it lasts up to a year. So there are two sessions. First one is the initial and the next one is the touchup and the final one. The first one, she recommended to just do a basic and not to complicate into detail. So I listened to her. Some tattoo sections faded away, but she has warned me this may happen. I came back for the second time a month later. We talked back and forth on what I am seeking for and once again, she would recommend on what she thinks. My gosh, I am so glad to have met her and I asked her to never leave Seattle because I am coming back in a year when it fades. She truly takes time to listen and talk to you.
Harumi san is very funny once you get to know her. I even asked her about the eyeliner tattoo because I completely trust her sense and the skills.
Thank you Harumi san for your patience and amazing skill!!!

Had my eyebrows tattooed by Harumi. She was very attentive and we had a long discussion of what my goals were before I made the plunge.
I had my brows first tattooed over 20 years ago.
I have since went to a few different artists to get them redone. I have a very persistent underlying color (orange/​purple). Harumi color corrected and offset the colors and then put the desired end color on.
I am hoping for fantastic results. The shape and color she left me is beautiful. She is very professional and wanted me to be happy with the shape and color. Definitely go to her! You will be happy you did.

I get Harumi to wax my eye brows every few weeks and she does a great job. I also just started getting eye lash extensions from her and they’re to die for. I can wait up to 6 weeks without going in! They stay in much longer than eye lash extensions I’ve gotten in the past. One of my friends got permanent makeup done by Harumi on her eyebrows and it looks amazing. I’m seriously considering going in for those too!

Harumi at Savvy is amazing. I have been interested in eyebrow embroidery but have been nervous. Harumi suggested I try Sleek brows to get me ready for a more permanent option. So I just got my brows sleeked and I love them. What I love about her the most is her precision and attention to detail. She worked meticulously until they were just right. She’s a true artist! The salon space is also extremely clean and comfortable. I’m ready for my embroidery now!
Update: I went for the embroidery and I’m so happy! My brows look natural and perfect ALL day! I save so much time getting ready each morning, I get to push snooze twice. Like all of my experiences with Harumi, she was so careful and gentle. I’m so pleased with the embroidery. If you’re thinking about it… go see Harumi.

I love my new brows! A little background: Being Asian, I have always had very sparse, if any, eyebrow hairs. I have always felt insecure and started drawing/​powdering them in since middle school. As my face changed and makeup skills got better, I had mastered my brows but still longed for perfect real brows. I had always been scared of tattooing eyebrows because they always look so fake but once I heard about microblading/​3D eyebrows I was very interested. My favorite part is that the tattoo is actually small individual strokes, not a block filling, so it looks much more natural. The process was a little over two hours long which included paperwork, numbing and additional touch ups after the base shape was set. The pain was little, just imagine small pricks and scrapes, I could easily go through it again. Since it is a tattoo, my nitpicking and perfectionist side came out and Harumi patiently added small strokes multiple times until I was happy. She made me feel very comfortable and we had good conversation. I went to Costco right when it was done without any worries of it looking bad. So far it’s healed nicely and my friends cannot even tell the difference! The only downside would be that the procedure is quite pricy and will not unfortunately last forever, but for me it’s definitely worth it. I look forward to living my days with a new sense of freedom, confidence and brows. Thank you Harumi!

Just got my 3D eyebrows/​embroidery done by Harumi and I absolutely loved the experience and my new eyebrows! Harumi does an excellent job of shaping out the brows so they best suit your face and selecting a shade that is natural and flattering. The pain was very tolerable and Harumi was good about checking my comfort throughout the procedure. I am looking forward to how my eyebrows heal up over the next week and am confident that any areas of concern will be addressed during my touch up appointment (included in the price) scheduled 6 weeks from now.

I love my new eyebrow embroidery! So natural looking, the strokes are like real hair. Pain level was a ²⁄₁₀ with 10 being the most painful. Very bearable. I went shopping after and was so in love with my new brows! It’s not like the old days where you have to stay at home to wait for it to heal. Harumi, the brow artist, used a pen not machine, and stroke by stroke, she diligently created a beautiful set of eyebrows. Eyebrow embroidery is the new trend and there’s no one better to do it in Seattle than miss Harumi! Ladies, give her a call, free consultation, her price is reasonable not outrageous like the others, her place is professional and clean like a spa. Don’t be afraid, it’s so natural looking, not very painful, and so worth it! Feel free to ask me questions too. I love, love my new eyebrows and want to share this beauty tip with all the ladies out there. Harumi, thank you so much for being an amazing, tasteful artist! I’m a fan of your work!

I love savvy cosmetics. The staff there are very kind and helpful. Also, the location is pretty convenient for me. It’s inside of uwajimaya in the international district. I enjoy shopping my beauty stuff here :)

I have been going to Savvy Cosmetics for years. I have my facial done there, my eyebrows and my wrinkles taken care off there too. My husband has been giving me gift cards from Savvy Cosmetics for special occasions. I enjoy the specialty skills of Harumi, whether I am getting facial or other treatmment, she is so professional and encouraging and nice. Shopping there is always fun, that place is my go to place.

I got lash extensions for my brother’s wedding. I had a recommendation to make an appointment with Harumi, and I am so glad I did. It was like a spa experience. There were bolster pillows to make me comfortable, and even a blanket to put over my legs. It was so snuggy that I even fell asleep. I actually think I’m going to keep this look up for a while, because it’s not too expensive and looks amazing!

I am very much into buying/​using/​browsing high end skincare/​cosmetic products from Japan. I can tell you this is very worst experience I have ever had in any makeup counter so far.
I heard some great reviews about their facial service and this was the main reason why I walked into their store. However, there was a huge display area about Shiseido/​Cle De Peau products there, so I told myself why not to check them out first because it is authorized deal of the brand so they will have slightly different sets than department stores like Nordstrom, Saks and Barneys, etc.
The lady was very nice to chat with me in the beginning about the brands and recent promotions and of course the KEY sales pitch question: ‘what am I currently using?’ (every sales in counter asked this to see if how much you are likely to spend).
Here is the tipping point: She asked where did I purchase the brand I am currently using as this is very hard to get except online. Then I threw her some stores names: Nordstrom and Saks. Her face suddenly changed. I believe she suddenly realized ‘I shopped online and may use her store as showrooming.’ Then she really suddenly stop chatting and just asked with the straight face ‘do you want to buy anything today.’ and so ready to kick me out of her store… wow…so rude and so crazy to think no one ever shop online…
I was quite shocked to see the attitude change and I had no interest to showroom there because I was so stocked up during the holiday. Anyway, I still turned around to asked her about the facial service which was my primary goal.
She was so defensive, didn’t offer me any service menu at all and when I asked which brands of products she would use, she was so unwilling to tell (I was hoping Cle De Peau) and guard it as top secret as if I asked a bad question.
Finally I decided I will never step into this store again. Maybe she can really do great facial but I don’t feel I can handle this kind of attitude when I am half undressed in her treatment room.
Tip: You can buy the brands they are carrying in any major department stores and some of them offer facial/​massage service with purchase. You can try their testers freely although some sales are pushy, no one ever made me so uncomfortable.

Thank you Harumi for my Beautiful lashes. I tried the mini set and really LOVE them. You are AMAZING!!! Thank you for being so gifted and talented. You are very SPECIAL
Merry Christmas to you and your FAMILY!!!

Harumi is AWESOME! She has so many options on her menu of services. I’ve tried a variety from eyelash extensions, to facials and waxing. I highly recommend her because she’s personable, funny and really cares about giving excellent service. Her services are affordable AND high quality! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Just wanted to tell you… Many of my Asian friends say your place is where I should take a girlfriend for a nice treat. That is good enough for me. See you later.

I love my lashes! Harumi is very patient and very skilled.
