Permanent lip makeup, a procedure that promises to redefine your smile and revitalize your look, has taken center stage.

We'll explore why the quality of your permanent lip makeup experience is paramount, discuss the importance of choosing the right pigments, and walk you through the aftercare process. So, buckle up – there’s a long, beautiful road ahead of you!
What is Lip Blushing?
Lip blushing is a type of permanent makeup. This cosmetic tattooing procedure focuses on enhancing the lips with a soft and subtle tint, resembling a naturally flushed or blushed look. This technique is perfect for those desiring a delicate and natural appearance, adding a touch of color and definition to your lips!
What Should I Expect During the Procedure?
When you arrive at our studio, Seung will discuss your goals and desired lip color with you. After your consultation, we will apply numbing cream to the area to ensure your comfort during the procedure. Using a precise machine and a fresh needle, Seung then deposits pigment into your lips, gradually building up the color and shape. We allocate three hours to the session, to ensure that you receive the absolute best quality. Expect your lips to appear slightly darker immediately after the procedure; however, the color will soften and become more natural as they heal, leaving you with beautifully enhanced and naturally flushed lips.
What is the Significance of High-Quality Pigments in Permanent Lip Makeup?
When it comes to permanent lip makeup, the quality of the pigments used is a game-changer. In fact, it can be the very difference between a stunning, long-lasting enhancement and an unsatisfactory result. At Tashi Brow Studio, our decades of experience means that we’ve tested all of the major pigment lines, and know which pigments yield the best results. This is important for 3 reasons.
1. Vibrant and Natural Color: One of the primary benefits of using high-quality pigments is the ability to achieve vibrant and natural-looking colors. These pigments are carefully formulated to mimic the natural hues of the lips, ensuring that the final result enhances your beauty while appearing as though it's a part of your own features. In contrast, lower-quality pigments may fade or change color over time, leading to less desirable outcomes.
2. Longevity and Fade Resistance: Quality pigments are designed to resist fading, which is particularly crucial for permanent lip makeup. They are less prone to the effects of sunlight, environmental factors, and the natural turnover of skin cells. This means that your lip enhancement will maintain its brilliance and allure for a more extended period, reducing the need for frequent touch-ups.
3. Consistency and Precision: Quality pigments are known for their consistency, allowing the artist to achieve precise results. This consistency is vital for creating symmetrical and well-defined lip contours, ensuring that your permanent lip makeup looks flawless from every angle.
What does the Aftercare Routine look like?
After undergoing a lip blushing procedure, proper aftercare is crucial to ensure the longevity and vibrancy of your newly enhanced lips. During the initial healing phase, it's important to keep your lips clean and moisturized. We will provide you with specific aftercare instructions, but in general, you want to avoid sunlight and apply the after-care cream we give you. You might experience mild swelling, dryness, and flaking, which is entirely normal. Avoid picking or peeling at any flaking skin, as this can interfere with the healing process.
It's also essential to follow up the procedure with an 8-week touch-up appointment, as it is during this time that we can work together to make any adjustments to your lips you might desire.
How do I Choose the Best Artist/Technician?
At Tashi Brow Studio, we’re a little biased – but while we’d love to have you at the studio, no matter who you end up choosing for your lip blushing needs, we just want you to be safe and satisfied!
On the safety side, you want to ensure that your artist holds proper certifications and licenses, which demonstrates their commitment to safety and professionalism. You should also inquire about their experience, training, and the pigments they use. Reputable artists will prioritize safety, sanitation, and the use of high-quality pigments!
On the satisfaction side of things, seek out pictures of previous clients on your artist’s website and browse through their reviews to see if they’re a good fit for you.
And remember, while cost is important, any permanent makeup procedure should be viewed as an investment. Like saving for a name brand purse, sometimes the wait is worth it! Additionally, no one wants to be in a situation where they chose a cheaper option, only to have to spend more money fixing the mistakes.
