What is a Lip Blush tattoo?
This “water color” lip technique will enhance the natural beauty of the lips by improving the lip color and definition. There are many colors to choose from ranging from natural tints to vibrant colors. Lip blush tattoo brings back your natural lip contour for a youthful appearance.
Lip blush tattoos are very natural and are meant to enhance the natural color and shape of your lips. No dark reds or unnatural colors will be used. The healed result will give a soft tint to the lips, so they are good for those lacking natural color. This technique is also good for creating defined borders for those who might have lost the definition over time. Peachy tones can be added to dark or blueish lips for a healthy glow and vibrant tone. Because lips shed often and contain a lot of fatty tissue, this technique will fade rather quickly compared to other parts of the face, especially in the frequently chapped areas of the lips. You will notice the lips become much lighter after a few years, so touchups are recommended to bring the color back. Because the tattoo will not lighten anyone’s natural lip color, this technique does not work well on very darker skin tones. Dark skin is also at a higher risk of hyper/hypo pigmentation, so lip blush is not recommended. However, if you have medium grey or light brown lips then peachy tones can be added to neutralize the grey and create a more pink lip color. If you are prone to cold sores then you must take a prescription of an antiviral (Valtrex) to avoid having an outbreak. Lips will be darker/brighter for 5-10 days after the procedure and look more like lipstick. Once the lips are fully healed, the result will be lighter, softer, and very natural.
