The Secret to Effortless Lips
Lip blushing is a semi-permanent tattoo that allows us to deposit coloured pigment into the lips to improve the overall look, colour, and shape. Benefits include:
Enhanced color for discolored or pale lips
Customized color based on your features and preference
A more symmetrical look
Save time during your makeup routine
Smudge-proof and waterproof
Enjoy fuller-looking lips without the need for injections
Long-lasting colour for up to 3 years
What to Expect During Your Visit
Your lip blushing experience begins with a consultation with our permanent makeup artist. In the consultation, we’ll discuss your goals, what we can realistically achieve together, and go over the colour selection. Before the procedure, we’ll take your “before” photos, and then pre-draw the outline of the lips. Once the draw is perfected, your technician will apply a topical numbing cream to sit for approximately 30 minutes to ensure your comfort. Then, the tattooing begins! Once completed, the technician will clean your skin and you’ll be shown your beautiful, enhanced results! Your “after” photos will be taken and you’ll receive after care instructions.
