Achieve Fuller Lips With Lip Blushing

 

If you have always wanted fuller, pillowy lips with a natural look, you may have heard of lip blushing. The semi-permanent tattoo can enhance your lip color and give the illusion of fullness. Generally lasting about two years, lip blushing can simplify your daily makeup routine. Once you decide on the perfect lip color, you will be able to skip the lipstick: no more smudging or reapplying. Our clients love waking up with the perfect lip, and looking “put together” with just lip gloss every single day.

What Is Lip Blushing?

Often called ‘lip tattooing’, lip blushing is a cosmetic enhancement procedure that alters the shape and color of the lips to reveal fuller, younger-looking lips. Lip blushing is becoming a popular treatment in Oakland. While cosmetic products can plump lips temporarily and lip fillers can add volume, a lip blush tattoo can enhance your natural lip color and shape. This is done by depositing color ink into your lips and along your lip line to improve the overall look. The color is subtle to give natural-looking results. 

You may be wondering what color options are available for lip blushing. The color is customized for every client, ensuring that you achieve the desired effect. Pigment choice is important, as any blue, purple or brown undertones must be balanced with orange modifying pigments. We also consider your natural skin and lip tone. For individuals with skin tones in-between pale and olive with pink undertones, neutral peach or peachy pink tones will often look best. A well-trained permanent makeup expert will guide you during the consultation to help you understand how different shades will interact with your natural lip color and what the final results will look like. 

Why Get Lip Blushing?

There is a number of reasons why clients are interested in lip blushing in Oakland. Lip blushing is for you if you:

  • Want the appearance of fuller lips

  • Are going for a natural lip look

  • Have lip discoloration or hyperpigmentation 

  • Need color correction

  • Want to simplify your daily makeup routine and use fewer makeup products

  • Want to avoid lip fillers or other invasive procedures

If you’re looking for a dramatic change, such as a permanent retro red shade or supersharp lines, lip blushing is not the right treatment for you.

How Long Does Lip Blushing Last?

Lip blush is a semi-permanent tattoo, and as all semi-permanent procedures, will fade over time. Permanent makeup pigments are made from much smaller molecules than the molecules that traditional tattoo inks are made from. This means that PMU pigments eventually fade in the skin, becoming less intense. Lips generally tend to hold pigment longer, so they will have a longer life span than other permanent cosmetics. Clients can go about 2-3 years after initial sessions are complete before coming back for a touch-up.

Lip blush post-care is very important to the appearance and longevity of your new lips. Immediately after your procedure, you may experience swelling and redness for up to 48 hours. You may ice the lips and apply Arnica to reduce that irritation and swelling, as well as continue to apply healing ointment provided at service. Ensure that hands are washed with antibacterial soap before applying any aftercare. Lips take 6-8 weeks to fully heal and give true color and results.
