Adding Definition To The Lips Without Changing Colour

Permanent Makeup Natural Watercolour Lip Blush

Extremely Nervous the Result Would Not Be Natural Enough

This client had naturally full lips and a lovely shape however her vermillion border was very pale and the client wanted a little definition to the shape. The client very rarely wears strong lip colour and was really quite nervous that the result would not be as natural as she would like.

She left the colour entirely up to me so i mixed a bespoke colour just for her based upon the nude pinky brown glosses that she brought with her.

Bespoke Colour Mixed Just For Her

The clients three favourite lip gloss colours. I mixed the most similar to the colour on the left.

Pre Drawing The Lip Border

First I outline the clients natural lip border in a red pencil and iron out any minor asymmetries she had naturally. Once both myself and the client are happy with the shape of the border I then apply a topical anesthetic numbing cream to make the procedure totally comfortable.

Within 5 Days The Colour Will Heal Soft, Translucent Pink

The immediately after pictures are no reflection of how the colour will heal. initially the lips are very red as they have just been tattooed but within 5 days they will gel to a very soft natural translucent pink.

Healthy, Natural Splash of Lip Colour Defines The Clients Shape

Here is the procedure after 7 days. Beautiful!

The client was so happy with the result she came back for eyebrows the following week. 6 weeks after the initial lip procedure the client will come back for another session. I will intensify the colour slightly and define the edges of the border more on the second appointment.
