Question 1

What is the difference between lip blush and blended lip liner?

Accepted Answer

Blended lip liner has a darker, defined edge with the color fading in towards the center. This method gives a 3D ombre appearance to the color.
 
Lip blush is an even application of color to the entire lip surface. This method gives a tint of color over the whole lip and can correct the tones of your natural lip color. It also can provide softer definition to the outline of the lips.

Question 2

How is the color chosen?

Accepted Answer

Each color is custom mixed for your desired shade. With cosmetic tattoo procedures, espescially lips, we must take into account the color fading that will happen throughout the healing process. The end result will be a natural tint of the color we originally apply. At the follow up we are able to adjust the tone and shade if desired.

Question 3

How long does the healing take?

Accepted Answer

The healing time for lips is very quick, normally 3-5 days. The aftercare consists of keeping them clean and moisturized until any color shedding has finished.
 
On day 1 they will look very bright and a bit swollen.
 
On day 2-3 the color begins to shed from the surface of the lips and it may appear that the color has disappeared. (this is normal!)
 
For the next 2-3 weeks, the color will begin to "bloom" and the color should be settled around week 4. At this point, we are able to judge the color and see if any adjustments are needed at the next visit.

Question 4

How long does the color last?

Accepted Answer

Cosmetic lip tattos can last anywhere from 1-4 years depending on a number of factors:
 
- Color chosen
- Skin type
- Aftercare regimen
- Sun exposure
- Skincare products used
- Certain medications
 
Touch ups are recommended yearly to keep the integrity of the color.

Question 5

What if I have dark lips?

Accepted Answer

Dark lips can be a bit tricky to correct. In some cases, they will require one or more sessions of color correction before we will be able to use the desired shade.
