The TikToker showed what her cosmetic treatment looked like after getting it done

The TikToker, who is known as 'mskittenheels', has shared her story online and it's racked up over 218.2k views in just a few days.
Back in 2016, she was sold on the idea of getting microblading, which is a type of cosmetic tattoo where a small blade is used to create tiny, hair-like strokes on your eyebrows, along with a lip blush.
But she was told that it would fade away in around 18 months.
But fast forward nine years to 2025, "they still haven't gone.'
While the makeup did fade from its original "thin and brightness" she loved, the beauty fan revealed that it just didn't disappear.
The lip blush, in particular, bled over her natural lip line as her skin softened with age, leaving her with a look she never wanted.
But now she is trying to get rid of it, and now she is in the middle of a painful removal process, using saline for her lips and laser for her brows, with several more sessions to go.
She wants everyone to know: "It's so much more painful to get rid of it than it is to have it done."
"Don't be fooled," she writes in the caption section.
She was told it was semi-permanent, but she realised it's just "a tattoo on your face."
I tried the viral '53 method' to banish my 'chins' without going under the knife and the results were astonishing
But she explains that her biggest takeaway is microblading and lip blush aren't temporary, they're permanent, and getting rid of them is a long and painful journey.
One wrote: 'When I heard about these 10 years ago, I knew exactly how they would look within a few years.'
To which she replied: 'I wish I had that foresight. I'm really regretting mine.'
A second added: 'Don't forget the dreaded upper and lower eye liner that looks like eye shadow now.'

To which the TikToker replied: 'I'm so glad I didn't have that (I was too nervous about the pain around my eyes) but yes I've seen that on other people and it's turned a blue colour.'
Someone else asked: 'I really want my microblading removed but worried about how much it'll cost and how many sessions I'll need. How much did your session cost?'
And the TikToker replied: 'My original session was nine years ago and it cost about £240 at the time and then £80 for the top up a few weeks later.
'Honestly I wouldn't recommend it after all the pain I'm going through to get them removed but others have told me theirs have come out fabulous so I really think it depends on who you go to and the technique used.'

Britain's nosiest neighbourhoods revealed as survey ranks top curtain-twitching cities – how does your hometown rank?

Scroll to see how your hometown ranked WHO NOSE? Britain's nosiest neighbourhoods revealed as survey ranks top curtain-twitching cities – how does your hometown rank? Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE UK's nosiest neighbourhoods have been revealed, with a few surprising contenders nabbing top spots. A study saw 2,418 adults across cities throughout Britain and Northern Ireland scored and ranked on their curtain twitching tendencies. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 A study revealed the nosiest neighbourhoods in the UK 2 Many said they thought having a nosy neighbour was harmless It revealed Belfast, Worcester, and Brighton are home to the UK's nosiest neighbours. And the Northern Irish capital scored highest overall - ahead of Worcester, which came second, and Brighton and Hove, which came third. They were evaluated in six categories, including how often they look out their windows to observe their neighbours. Other considerations included how many neighbours they follow on social media, how many claim to know everyone on their street, and how many are members of neighbourhood WhatsApp groups. How many consider themselves to be nosy also informed the overall score, as did how many also think those living nearby are "curious". Commissioned by Škoda, the study found 35 per cent consider themselves to be nosy. Spokesperson Kirsten Stagg said: "Nosiness is practically a national sport in Britain. "Whether it's a new car on the driveway or a new family moving in, we can't help but take a peek. "Being a nosy neighbour isn't just harmless fun - it helps build safer, more connected communities and even sparks conversations, especially around new technology like electric cars." Out of everyone polled, it emerged the most common time for observing the neighbours is between 6pm and 8pm.

While 34 per cent reckon it's a good thing, because it's helpful in cases of emergency, and helps keep the neighbourhood safe. With 35 per cent of the opinion it builds a stronger sense of community. The study also found through observation alone those polled have learnt very specific details about those living close by. These include what they do for a living, the time they leave for work, and where they shop based on their bags. They've also noticed deliveries being made, their workout schedule, and a new car on the driveway. The latter a subject those polled have a particular fascination with – 70 per cent know the colour of their neighbour's car. Almost half know the make, 35 per cent the model, and 15 per cent can even recall the registration. And if anyone living close-by was to purchase an electric vehicle (EV) that could also get curtains twitching – 16 per cent would be curious and want to know what it's like. While 14 per cent would be impressed by their green credentials and 22 per cent would support their decision. Carried out through OnePoll, the study commissioned by the makers of the all-electric Škoda Enyaq revealed how those polled perceive EV drivers and being eco-conscious came top.

Flat that appeared in iconic Brit TV show being auctioned for just £190K – do YOU recognise it?

It was also used in another popular movie HOUSE THAT? Flat that appeared in iconic Brit TV show being auctioned for just £190K – do YOU recognise it? Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) AN ICONIC flat from a beloved British TV show is being auctioned off for just £190,000. Housed inside a uniquely curve-designed building, it was used as the lead character's home across the show's more than two decade run.

The Grade II-listed building has an Art Deco design that was constructed in 1936, making it unique for its time. Built by Guy Morgan and Partners, it has an iconic curved shape which may be recognisable in one of Britain's favourite TV shows than ran for more than two decades. The building was used as the Whitehaven Mansions, which was the home of Agatha Christie's beloved fictional detective Hercule Poirot. Inside the block, actually called Florin Court, there are nine floors with 120 flats, which contains porter service, two lifts and a secure entry system. Other amenities include an indoor swimming pool, sauna, gym and communal lounge, which were considered rare additions during the time it was built. There is also a rooftop garden with views across the city. This £190,000 priced property is located in London's Barbican, on Charterhouse Square. Pricing is before fees, but it is a small flat. Flat 28 of Florin Court measures just 209 sq ft or less than 20 sq. TV legend David Suchet stars as murder mystery detective Poirot in Poirot The space is therefore very a studio, even smaller than the minimum requirements now in place for new built single-person homes at 37 sq m. Within the studio there is a bedroom and living space, as well as separate areas for the kitchenette and bathroom. However, it does prove to be in the prime location of central London with easy access to the City of London, the Elizabeth line, or Barbican and Farringdon underground stations. It is also described to be situated on a residential road with plent of shops and amenities close by. Amongst those include the open spaces of the Barbican Wildlife Garden. 8 Whitehaven Mansions was depicted as the home of the famous Agatha Christie detective 8 It was Hercule Poirot's home, which was played by David Suchet between 1989 and 2013 Credit: ITV And of course, a great appeal to the property is its architecture and design, which may have made it attractive for directors to use it as a set location. Both the interior and exterior of the block of flats was shot for the iconic British TV show across its 24 years of production. Agatha Christie's Poirot even had an episode called The Third Floor Flat in its first season of running in 1989. This flat that has been put on auction is therefore ideal for fans of the show, or even just to admire its architecture. Florin Court was even used again for the filming of one of Batman's leading character spin-offs, "Pennywise" in 2019. The property is currently held on a 999 year lease from 1st April 2017, therefore being approximately 991 years unexpired. It also has an EPC rating of C, being auctioned by Auction House this month. Viewings reportedly took place on the afternoons of August 1 and August 5 for the flat, however it is still being listed as unsold. 8 The property also has a gym, a communal lounge and rooftop garden Credit: auctionhouse

Millie, who is already mother to Ophelia, four, Chester, three, and Elodie, 22 months, beamed as she said: 'Hi guys - so we have a big surprise to share with you all.' Following this, Harley chimed in and claimed: 'Ophelia was begging us for ages, it was at least a year.' The couple then held up their 'new addition' - a Jack-A-Poo puppy named Bella. Harley explained: 'She's literally just over eight weeks old,' whilst Millie continued: 'She is teething at the minute, so she's just chewing everything. 'She absolutely loves this mayhem house - when I picked her up, in her litter she was probably the most playful one, which was very ideal, especially for this household because it's just constantly mad.' The 22 Kids & Counting star then admitted: 'I was scared to get a dog - three young kids and a dog, but she has been great. 'She's settled in really well as well - so yeah, that's our new addition.' Moments later, Harley, who was previously filmed breaking down in tears on his wedding day to Millie, then recognised: 'I had to beg Millie. 'Millie wasn't too keen at first, she thought it would have been a bad idea, but I feel like it's been such a good idea because I feel like it's changed Ophelia's behaviour. Millie Radford who had first baby at 19 says mum Sue is crazy for having 22 kids & insists she'll stop at three 'She's starting school in September, so I thought it'd help out loads.' Millie's TikTok clip, which she posted on her official account @ has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 134,200 views, 5,452 likes and 76 comments. Who's who in the Radford family? The Radfords are Britain's biggest family with 22 children. Here are the kids from eldest to youngest include: Chris - born May 7, 1989 Sophie - born December 13, 1993 Chloe - born July 31, 1995 Jack - born April 9, 1997 Daniel - born March 3, 1999 Luke - born October 1, 2000 Millie Radford - born August 29, 2001 Katie - born November 14, 2002 James - born October 17, 2003 Ellie - born May 6, 2005 Aimee - born April 21, 2006 Josh - born July 3, 2007 Max - born December 11, 2008 Tillie - born May 2, 2010 Oscar - born October 22, 2011 Casper, - born October 3, 2012 Hallie - born June 3, 2015 Phoebe - born July 24, 2016 Archie - born September 18, 2017 Bonnie - born November 6, 2018 Heidie - born April 3, 2020 Millie's fans were overjoyed by the couple's latest 'addition' to their brood and many eagerly raced to the comments to express this. One person said: 'So cute.' Another added: 'Aww lovely your little new addition.' They will probably abandon that dog when they go on their millionth holiday TikTok user A third commented: 'Lovely puppy.' Meanwhile, someone else wrote: 'She's adorable.' How does family-of-22 the Radfords afford to live? AS Britain's biggest family, it may come as no surprise that Sue and Noel Radford must have some hefty bills. Between them, they have a whopping 22 children and seven dogs, which often has some people wonder how they manage their money. The Radfords support themselves with the proceeds of Noel's bakery, The Radford Pie Company, which is located near their home. On their website, it says: 'We have owned our own lovely bakery since 1999 which is how we manage to provide for (and feed) our huge and expanding family as well as for the local people of Heysham and Morecambe.' The family expanded their business to cater to online orders placed across the UK. The business is a family affair, with Noel at the helm, and some of their children helping out. The older kids, who are working at least part-time, don't get a free ride as they're made to pay a small amount of rent to their parents. "Us older ones do pay a little bit of board. Granted it's not a lot but I'm also trying to save up for my own house at the moment.' their daughter Chloe said in a video on the YouTube channel. Sue added: "We've always said if you want to buy somewhere, renting is a bit of dead money, so we'd rather you saved that money up and stayed at home a bit longer. 'I also do believe they should pay board if they are earning. We've always been brought up by our parents that we had to pay board.' Noel and Sue famously don't rely on benefits for their bumper brood and live off their pie shop for income. They also revealed they make money from brand partnerships on social media. The Radford family stars in their own reality TV show 22 Kids and Counting - which has run for four series. Brand expert Andy Barr believes Noel and Sue have been paid less than £10,000 for each show. He told the Daily Mail: "The typical fee per episode is going to be in the thousands rather than the tens or hundreds of thousands that people often think is the case with TV shows of this nature. "If they continue to get commissioned for a fourth or fifth season, then they are going to be able to command a higher fee." He estimates that the Radfords make £ 5,000 an episode. Whilst one user beamed: 'The dog and kids can grow together and learn with each other." However, at the same time, one user snapped: 'They will probably abandon that dog when they go on their millionth holiday.' But to this, Millie confidently wrote back and set the record straight, as she claimed: 'We ain't going on holiday this year.'
