Lip Blush in Istanbul

Lip Blush Treatment

Lip Blush is the new alternative to the old permanent lip makeup. It can be compared to lip gloss, tint or blush. The idea of this procedure is to restore color and keep the lip’s edge or vermillion border soft. This will give the lips a fuller, softer appearance without a harsh lip liner look.

Lip Blush Process

A numbing cream is first applied to ensure comfort. Once the lips are numb we start by shaping the lips with a pencil to choose the perfect shape. The lips are more prone to swelling during treatment. If this should occur, swelling will quickly fade and will disappear totally within two days. Expect the procedure to take around three hours. The color density may appear stronger at first than you anticipated, but this will fade after three to four days too. Trauma around the mouth area may cause an occurrence of cold sores. It is usually a few days after the i procedure that cold sore pain begins. People who get cold sores will need to take preventative medication at least 2 days before the procedure.

How Long Does Lip Blush Last?

Every client is individual but generally 2 years. Color retention depends on skin type, age, aftercare, sun exposure, use of certain products, pigments used, the immune system, medications, and other Factors.  Touch ups are recommended once every 1-2 years to prevent natural fading.

Does It Hurt?

Clients are numbed prior to procedure, so it is quite comfortable and relatively pain free.

How Long Is The Healing Process?

Clients can expect to look like they’re wearing lipstick combined with a mild lip-filler pout when they leave their appointment! The color looks really vibrant the day of and after the appointment. Around day two-three, the lips will softly flake away, and the following day they appear almost entirely healed. This soft technique we use ensures the lips will heal quickly and with minimal discomfort.

Medications

If you are prone to herpes or cold sore breakouts you will need to take your antiviral medications preventatively for a couple days before procedure and a few days after.

Will It Look Like Lipstick?

No. It does not replace your lipstick, but gives your lips a natural, blushy tint. If you are a person that loves the appearance of “no-makeup makeup” and wants to look like your lips have a little life during the work week, at the gym, picking up a coffee and running errands, and like to feel “effortlessly put-together” – this is it!

Lip Blush for Dark Lips:

Attention! If your lips are dark, purple or hyperpigmentated and you want to cover of darkness please read:

You will need at least 2 sessions.

On our first session there will be only one color option, which is bright orange. If we will tattoo any other color you will have absolutely 0 retention or could risk darkening your hyperpigmentation. Nude colors will not stay or cover dark pigmentation in your lips. Therefore, on our first session we will cancel out the cool tones in your lips with a warm toned color (orange). When healed, you will end up with a beigey pink color on your lips and most, if not all of the hyperpigmentation will be covered.

During the second session we may have to repeat the first step, depending on how well your hyperpigmentation is covered from the first session. If your lips healed nicely and all of the hyperpigmentation is gone, then on the second session we will use a bright red to get a NATURAL pink tone. On second session we cannot use a nude color either.

Before the appointment, I will explain all details regarding the procedure and I will show pictures of results that can be expected. Clients with dark lips have to understand that it may take more sessions for them to achieve desired result. At this moment, clients with dark lips are not charged for additional touch up.

The truth is, dark lips are really difficult to work with: the skin is very thick and tough for permanent makeup which is gentle technique. Most artists will run away from dark lips and not touch them at all. However, I know how to work with these lips properly and have the right pigments, technique and machine to get beautiful results.
