LIP BLUSHING
Lip Blushing by Laurelle
Lip Blushing is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattoo designed to enhance the natural beauty of your lips—adding a soft veil of color, gentle definition, and a more even tone. As a transformational tattoo artist, Laurelle approaches lip blushing as a refined, confidence-building service that still looks like you, just elevated.
This treatment is not a bold lipstick look. Think your lips, but better—a subtly tinted, fresh, healthy finish.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Immediately After
There is minimal downtime, but lips are a unique area and swelling is normal. You can expect:
Swelling and tenderness the day of (often most noticeable within the first 24 hours)
Color to appear brighter/darker initially
A gradual softening as the lips heal
Healing + Settling
Healing can vary, but a typical timeline includes:
Days 1–3: Swelling decreases; lips feel dry/tight
Days 3–7: Peeling/flaking begins (do not pick)
Days 7–14: Color may look lighter or uneven as new skin forms
Around 4 weeks: Color continues to settle
6–8 weeks: Touch-up to perfect tone, balance, and longevity
Longevity
Lip Blushing typically lasts 2–3 years, depending on lifestyle, sun exposure, skin chemistry, and aftercare. Many guests schedule periodic refresh appointments to maintain their preferred tone.
