What is lip blush?
Lip blush, also known as lip blushing, is a semi-permanent make-up technique that enhances your lips. The beauty professional deposits a pigment in the epidermis of your lips to create the desired shade. Depending on your skin tone and preferences, he or she will choose a natural color that will enhance the gloss of your lips.
But that’s not all! Lip blush also enhances the symmetry of your lips. The professional draws a precise contour that guides the pigmentation work. He can correct irregularities, cover scars and give the illusion of fuller lips. A real facelift for your smile!

The lip blush procedure is performed in several stages and lasts between 1 and 3 hours. First, the professional applies an anesthetic cream to ensure optimal comfort. Next, he outlines the contour of your lips with a make-up pencil to define the area to be worked on.
He then uses a dermograph, a device with small needles, to tattoo your lip. Pigment is applied from the outside to the inside of the lips, for a natural, long-term effect on the mouth. The professional may apply 2-3 coats to achieve the desired color.
At the end of the session, the professional applies a soothing cream to soothe your lips and facilitate healing.
What are the expected results of lip blush?
Immediately after the session, your lips will show a more intense color than the final result. But don’t worry, the intensity fades as the skin heals. After a few days, your lips will reveal a soft, natural shade, perfectly in harmony with your skin tone.
Results are visible for 1 to 3 years. Of course, this depends on your lifestyle and skin type. In any case, an annual touch-up is recommended to keep your lips looking fresh.
