Lip Blush Tattoo: Healing, Aftercare & Results

Lip Blush Tattooing has become one of the most popular cosmetic tattoo treatments for enhancing natural beauty. Whether you want to add subtle colour, correct uneven tones, or achieve a more defined lip shape, this treatment offers long-lasting results without the need for constant reapplication of lipstick.

But what exactly happens after your appointment? Let’s break it down step by step so you know what to expect from healing to final results.

What Is Lip Blush Tattooing?

Lip Blush is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattoo treatment that gently implants pigment into the lips. The result is a soft, natural wash of colour that enhances your lips rather than replacing your favourite lipstick. Over time, the pigment fades gradually, making it a low-maintenance option compared to daily makeup.

The Healing Process: What to Expect

Like any cosmetic tattoo, Lip Blush goes through stages as it heals:

Day 1–2:
Your lips will appear more vibrant and bold immediately after the procedure. Some swelling is normal.

Day 3–5:
Lips will start to feel dry and may flake or peel. This is completely normal — it’s your skin regenerating.

Day 6–10:
The pigment may look lighter or faded during this stage. Don’t worry — this is part of the healing process as your skin settles.

Weeks 4–6:
The true colour starts to appear once your lips are fully healed. A touch-up session may be required for the best results.

Aftercare Tips for Best Results

Proper aftercare is key to achieving beautiful, long-lasting colour. Here’s what we recommend:

• Keep them clean & dry: Avoid excessive moisture, saunas, or swimming in the first week.

• No picking or peeling: Let the natural flaking process happen on its own.

• Moisturise gently: Use a recommended healing ointment or balm to keep lips hydrated.

• Avoid makeup & harsh products: Steer clear of lipstick, scrubs, or active skincare until fully healed.

• Protect from the sun: Use SPF balm once healed to preserve pigment colour.

The Results

When fully healed, Lip Blush gives you:

• A natural tint that enhances your lip colour

• More even tone and definition

• The appearance of fuller, healthier lips

• Results that last 2–3 years with proper care

Most clients love the low-maintenance lifestyle — wake up with colour, skip the smudging, and enjoy a polished look every day.
