LIP BLUSH / NANO STROKES & SHADING

Permanent lip blush is a cosmetic tattoo procedure that involves using a needle to deposit pigment into the skin of the lips. It is designed to give the appearance of naturally flushed, full lips without the need for daily application of lipstick or lip gloss.

While the procedure can be very effective in enhancing the appearance of the lips, it is important to be cautious and follow the proper techniques to ensure the best possible results. One key aspect of this is to avoid going outside the vermillion border, which is the natural border of the lips.

The vermillion border is the line that separates the skin of the lips from the skin of the surrounding area. It is important to stay within this border when applying pigment during a permanent lip blush procedure, as going outside of it can lead to a number of unwanted effects.

First and foremost, going outside the vermillion border can result in an unnatural and uneven appearance. The skin outside of the lips is very different than the skin on the lips, and as a result, the pigment may not be absorbed as evenly. Lip skin is thin and delicate, and has a different texture and structure than skin on the rest of the face. It is more prone to drying out and chapping and is more sensitive to the sun. Lip skin does not have oil glands, so it is not able to moisturize itself as easily as the skin on the rest of the face. This can lead to an uneven distribution of color, with some areas appearing much darker than the skin on the lips.

It is important to be cautious and stay within the vermillion border when performing a permanent lip blush procedure. By doing so, you can avoid giving uneven and unnatural results to your clients.
