Question 2

WHAT'S LIP BLUSH? WHAT'S THE BENEFITS OF GETTING LIP BLUSH?

Accepted Answer

Lip blush is a form of semi-permanent makeup that is used to enhance the natural shape, color, fullness of your lips and correct asymmetry. It is similar to a tattoo, but it is not as permanent. The process consists of using a digital device to inject various colors of pigment into the lips to give them a more defined shape and a more vibrant color.

Lip blush offers many benefits, including:
	• Enhancing your natural lip shape and color
	• Long-lasting results that can last up to several years
	• A natural look and fee
	• Minimizing lipstick smudging
	• Enhancing the appearance of thin lips
	• Improving the overall balance and symmetry of the face

Question 3

HOW LONG WILL IT LAST?

Accepted Answer

Lip blush typically lasts for 2-5 years, but depending on your lifestyle, health and skin type. Due to natural exfoliation of the skin, it will typically start to fade over time like a tint lip balm. 
Other factors that may cause lip blushing to fade faster:
	• Sun exposure
	• Oily skin
	• Retinol or Vitamin C
	• Iron deficiency
	• Exfoliants
	• Exposure to salt water

It's also recommended to do annual touchups to freshen up the color and to prevent the lips from looking dull.

Question 5

DOES IT HURT?

Accepted Answer

Lip blushing usually doesn't hurt, as the lip blushing process typically uses a topical numbing cream to reduce discomfort., you likely won't feel more than a slight stinging sensation. Some compare it to the feeling of using a strong lip scrub or light scratches. 
If you are nervous about pain or you have a low pain tolerance, you may take 1-2 Tylenol 30 minutes before your appointment. 
DO NOT take Advil or drink coffee before your appointment because they will cause you to bleed more and sensitive during the procedure.

* Most of my clients fall asleep during the procedure with or without numbing cream.

Question 6

I HAVE FILLER, CAN GET LIP BLUSH?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can get lip blushing even if you have lip filler, it does not  interfere with the process of getting lips blush. 
Lip fillers should be performed not less than 4 weeks prior to your procedure and 4 weeks after your initial appointment.

Question 7

WHAT IS LIP NEUTRALIZATION?

Accepted Answer

Dark lip neutralization is a technique used in lip blushing to create a natural-looking lip color by using a combination of pigments to neutralize any dark spots on the lips or to cancel out the cool tones. 
The initial color must have warm or orange pigments so when it heals at 6 weeks, it cancel out any unwanted dark spots on the lips and your lips will have a nudie-pink even tone.  If the dark lips are tattoo to any cool color there is a risk of darkening the lips or having no results at all.

Please email pictures of your lip if you are unsure.

Question 8

DO I NEED A TOUCH UP?

Accepted Answer

Touch up is recommend for the longevity of your lip blush. We can alter the shape, color, to go bolder or to fill in spots that didn't retain pigment. A touchup can be booked no sooner than 6 weeks of your last appointment. Please schedule your touchup at the same time as booking your initial appointment.
