lip blush

Lip tattooing is fast becoming one of our most popular treatments and very on-trend for that no-makeup look. The colour although bright when first done fades over 4 weeks to a soft tinted lip. Just lip balm and go! No smudging, perfectly tinted lips 24/7

The benefits of lip tattooing are countless. It restores colour to pale lips. Enhances the natural shape and border, which in return makes the lips appear fuller and more youthful.

It’s also great for redefining the lip border for anyone who has lost definition due to lip filler, thin lips, ageing or scarring.

It helps balancing out uneven lip colouring, providing a more uniform appearance.

  • No Botox or filler 2 weeks prior to or after your appointment. No skin peels, micro-needling, laser or IPL 4 weeks before.

    Avoid caffeine & alcohol for 24 hrs before. Do not take any blood thinners (aspirin, ibuprofen, niacin) 48 hours before your appointments this can cause excess pain or bleeding which can affect your healed results.

    Avoid fish oils for 4 weeks.

    Contraindications for cosmetic tattooing:

    • Pregnant or breastfeeding

    • Been on antibiotics for an extended period of time

    • Diabetic

    • Been on a course of Accutane for the last 6 months

    • Diabetic (Dr’s certification)

    • Undergoing chemotherapy

    • Have a history of dizziness & fainting

    You can gently exfoliate 1-2 times a week to remove any dead skin and keep your lips hydrated with a good lip balm. Avoid anything like Vaseline or Lucas paw paw, these are petroleum-based products and actually dry out the skin.

    If you have had cold sores in the past even if it’s been a long time, you must take lysine 3 weeks prior to your appointment to avoid an outbreak.

  • At your first appointment, we will talk with you in-depth about the colour, shape, expectation and healing.

  • Two forms of topical anesthetic are used for your comfort. The pain threshold varies for each individual. Some clients may experience slight discomfort but it is very mild.

  • NO exercise, direct or prolonged sun exposure, swimming, sauna/steam for 7 days post-tattoo. You will be given an aftercare pack with all your post-care information to take with you at your appointment.

  • This depends on a few variables such as when the tattoo was last done and how much it’s faded. This is evaluated by each individual to decide if that’s something we are able to do.
