LIP BLUSH

  Lip Blushing is a form of Semi-Permanent makeup. Essentially, it's a cosmetic tattoo of the lips that enhances the beauty of the natural lip color, improving the shape of the lips, giving definition and the illusion of fullness. The treatment delivers very natural results, once healed. Filler is great for creating volume in your lips, however, lip blushing offers a more natural look and the illusion of fuller lips.  

• If you’ve ever had a cold sore (even once), request an oral antiviral prescription (like valtrex) and take it the day before, day of, and day after your appointment.
   
• Avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, vitamin E, and alcohol for 48 hours before and after.
   
• Pause any Retinol, AHA, or exfoliating products two weeks before your session.
   
• Avoid tanning, laser treatments, and filler in the lip area two weeks prior.
   
• Bring or send a photo of your favorite lip shade if there’s a color you love to reference.
   

 Mild swelling generally lasts 24–48 hours, followed by gentle peeling around days 3–5. Color appears brighter at first, then lightens 30–50% as it blends naturally with your tone.

• Keep lips clean and moisturized with Aquaphor.
   
• Avoid workouts, sun, and picking at scabs.
   
• Expect full healing in 6–8 weeks, with a perfecting touch-up recommended at that time.
   

The healing process typically moves from too bright → too light → just right.
