Lip Blush is a natural, sheer lip stain effect - no harsh outlines, just a subtle blush of color to define, shape, and make lips look naturally plump & flushed! A custom color is mixed for each and every client based on their skin color, undertones, and existing lip shade.

We offer Lip Blush for ALL lip tones. Watercolor subtle tinting works best on pale to medium toned lips. Your naturally occurring lip pigmentation determines what effect will work on your skin! Melanin rich or darker lips will require a technique called Dark Lip Neutralization for best results

• This trending new service uses the most modern color theory findings and techniques to shift darker lips to a lighter nude or rosier shade. Neutralization is used to lighten and even out the tone of lips in the first session. We are lifting darkness and balancing out your lip tone to create an even base to later deposit color on. Neutralization begins with 2 sessions, but could take up to 3 or 4 to achieve desired results. Everyone is unique and patience is key! Results can be confidence boosting and life changing!

Pain is minimal - 2 anesthetics are used to keep you comfortable!

Healing time is very quick and very easy, just a few days of applying Aquaphor & avoiding spicy foods/swimming/sauna

The area will be slightly swollen for a day or two (but nothing you have to hide away from, they’ll just be plump)

Color is very vibrant and looks like lipstick the first 2 days, then begins settling in, softening and turning very natural

This is a two step process: we will book your second session when you are in the studio

Cooler/ darker lips might require extra sessions to achieve desired results. Feel free to email us if you’d like us to take a look prior to booking!

Lip fillers: you MUST wait at least 1 month before/ after getting your lips tattooed

Cold sores: if you’ve EVER had even 1 cold sore on the outside area of your mouth or on your lips you MUST take doctor prescribed Valtrex or a similar antiviral at least 3 days prior and 3 days after getting your lips tattooed. If you don’t- this procedure will trigger an outbreak that will affect healing- so this is very important & very easy to avoid!

Moisturize: make sure your lips are well moisturized in the days leading to the appt. Dry, cracked lips won’t heal nicely!

Day 1

Some swelling will occur - its very temporary! It commonly lasts from 3-24 hours.

Your skin will start slowly releasing lymph fluid right after your procedure. This is a common healing process for our bodies! Clean lips every 30 minutes with the sterile wipes included in your kit. This reduces your scabbing. Moisturize before bed.

Day 2

The lips may still be slightly swollen today and it will look like you’re wearing matte lipstick. It’s normal for them to feel chapped or wind burnt. Moisturize with Aquaphor or tattoo balm, we provide 5-6 times a day.

Day 3-7

Keep moisturizing as needed! It’s ok for lips to dry out slightly between applications. Some light flaking and peeling may occur-this is normal. IMPORTANT! Do not pick or rub any dry skin! It must shed naturally. If you pick or peel the skin, it will take the tattoo out with it and you will have uneven results. Once it sheds, your lips will appear very light in color. Don’t worry! The color will continue to develop over the next few weeks!

One month later: you will notice the actual healed results from your session in 4-6 weeks. You’ll notice a few color changes throughout the month.

Patience is key :)

It’s also crucial that you do not expose your lips to sunlight during the healing process.

Refrain from soaking your lips in water for a week and from applying makeup to them.

Refrain from using saunas and swimming pools, sweating excessively and sunbathing for 5 days

Do not peel any dry skin/ scabs.

Keep the lips moisturized with Aquaphor or our recommended balm only (no Neosporin, vaseline, etc)

During the first 4 weeks post procedure refrain from using exfoliants, acids and anti aging serums on the area around the lips.

After one week post procedure, and moving forward, use lip balm with SPF to keep your color fresh and protected from sun damage
