lip blushing

in St Louis

A soft tint that enhances your natural lip color, defines your shape, and leaves you with a fresh, effortless look—no daily lipstick needed.

What Is Lip Blushing?

Lip blushing is a semi-permanent tattoo that gently deposits pigment into the lips to boost their natural color and symmetry. The result is a subtle, sheer tint that heals to a soft, natural finish. It enhances definition, corrects uneven tones, and gives your lips a fuller appearance—without looking overdone.

Why People Love It

  • Adds a healthy tint to pale or uneven lips

  • Defines your lip shape and border

  • Heals soft, never heavy or harsh

  • Saves time on daily makeup

  • Smudge-proof and low maintenance

What to Expect

Your artist will start with a consultation and pre-draw your lip shape. A custom pigment is blended to match your goals—ranging from barely-there blush to a more visible tint. Numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable. The session takes about 2–3 hours. Most clients return for a perfecting session at 6–8 weeks.

  • Lips will darken initially, then soften by 40–60% as they heal

  • Avoid hot, spicy foods, makeup, and excessive moisture for 7–10 days
