How Tariffs Are Affecting PMU Supplies in the USA — And Why Buying from Australia Might Save Your Salon

How Tariffs Are Affecting PMU Supplies in the USA — And Why Buying from Australia Might Save Your Salon

If you're a PMU artist in the USA or run a cosmetic tattoo salon, you've probably noticed rising prices on essential PMU supplies like machines, microblades, cartridges and disposable tools. With tariffs increasing on imports from China, many salon owners across America are paying more than ever for equipment and everyday consumables.

But here’s something many U.S. artists don’t realise:
You can now access high-quality PMU supplies — like permanent makeup machines, cartridges, microblades, and disposables — through Australian suppliers, many of which source directly from the same trusted Chinese manufacturers.


Why This Matters for U.S. Cosmetic Tattoo Artists:

  • Machines, blades, cartridges, and disposables are often manufactured in China — and imported into the U.S. with added tariffs

  • Buying from Australian suppliers can be more cost-effective — with no U.S.-China tariffs

  • The strong U.S. dollar means your USD goes further when purchasing from Australia

  • We ship to all 50 U.S. states, with both standard and express options


What About Pigments?

Most high-quality PMU pigments are made in the USA or Europe. For this reason, we encourage U.S. artists to source their pigments from local or regional suppliers to avoid long wait times or unnecessary shipping costs.


What You Can Safely Source from Australia:

  • PMU Machines (used for brows, lips, and eyeliner)

  • Microblading Blades and tools

  • Disposable kits, grips, and protective covers

  • Cartridges for rotary and pen-style machines

All of these are stocked and shipped by Cosmetic Ink, one of Australia’s trusted PMU suppliers, now shipping to the United States.


Keep in Mind:

  • Shipping to the U.S. is available via standard options

  • You’ll need to allow extra shipping time compared to domestic delivery

  • We provide full tracking and support for all international orders
