Lip blush is a form of semi-permanent make-up, which means it is a cosmetic tattoo. A trained artist uses a fine needle to deposit small amounts of pigment into the upper layers of the lips, softly enhancing their natural colour, defining the border and improving the look of symmetry and fullness. It is not a filler and adds no volume; the effect is a tint rather than a lipstick-strong finish. The shade, intensity and shape can be tailored to your natural lip tone and the look you want, from a barely-there wash of colour to a more defined finish.
