Lip Blush
Your lips, softly defined and evenly toned — a no-lipstick flush.
What it is
Lip blush is a soft-tint tattoo that deposits sheer pigment across the lips to restore a healthy, even colour, subtly redefine the border, and give a naturally-flushed look without lipstick. It is not a bold lipstick effect — the goal is your lips, enhanced. Tone is chosen at consultation to complement your natural lip colour and skin.

Lip Blush questions.
-
Often yes, but you must let us know at consultation. Lip tattooing can trigger a flare, so a short course of antiviral medication from your doctor beforehand is usually advised.
-
No — lip blush is a soft, sheer enhancement of your own lip colour, not an opaque lipstick effect.
