What is Lip Blush?
Lip Blush is a semi-permanent tattoo that enhances your natural lip color and shape with a soft, diffused finish.
How does it work?
A rotary device gently deposits pigment into the lips in layers, creating a natural blush tone customized to you.
Does it hurt?
Discomfort is minimal. A numbing cream is applied during the procedure for your comfort, though sensitivity varies per client.
How long does it take?
Each session takes about 3 hours, including numbing, outlining, and tattooing.
What colors are available?
A range of pinks, corals, and soft reds are available. Your artist will help choose the perfect tone during your appointment.
What should I expect after Lip Blush?
Immediately after, lips may appear swollen and more vibrant. As they heal, swelling subsides and color softens by 30–40%, revealing a natural tint.
Is there downtime?
Healing takes about 7 days. Expect mild dryness and texture while lips exfoliate naturally. Apply the provided barrier cream, Aquaphor, or A+D Ointment to stay hydrated.
How long does Lip Blush last?
Results last 2–3 years after your touch-up, depending on skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare.
When do I need a touch-up?
A touch-up at 4–6 weeks helps layer pigment and refine color. This ensures even healing and long-lasting results.

Clients on Accutane must wait 1 year after stopping use.
If you’ve had cancer or serious illness, you must be in remission for at least 1 year and provide a physician’s note.Note: Although we've seen excellent results achieved in a single session, it is best to come in with the mindset that multiple sessions are sometimes required to achieve optimal results. Touch ups give us an opportunity to see how your skin heals, review pigment retention, and make any necessary adjustments.
