Quick answer

What is lip blush?
Lip blush is a subtle treatment that uses a tint of colour to create a soft, translucent definition, blending away slight imperfections and creating symmetry and beautiful, youthful-looking lips.
Because the effect is sheer rather than solid, lip blush tends to look like a very good natural lip colour rather than an obvious cosmetic treatment, which is part of why it is popular for everyday wear.
Who suits lip blush?
Lip blush is the perfect choice for people who want a sheer, flawless look to their lips during the day, with the option to apply their own bolder colours at night.
- Wanting a sheer, natural everyday look
- Lip colour that has faded or become uneven
- Wanting the option to add bolder lipstick on top
- A preference for subtle rather than bold definition
What to expect from your appointment
Your consultation covers your preferred shade and any slight shaping you would like, staying within your natural lip contour. Colour is applied gently to build a soft, translucent tint.
Because the finish is meant to be sheer, colour is checked against your natural lip tone throughout the appointment rather than built up to a fixed depth, so the result stays soft rather than heavy.
Healing and aftercare
Your lips will feel sensitive and may look slightly swollen and more heavily coloured than expected for up to two weeks. The colour will fade during healing before blossoming into its true, softer shade over the following four to six weeks.
Avoid spicy, salty or strongly coloured food and drink for a few days, drink through a straw where possible, and avoid kissing for around five days. A soothing balm and full aftercare advice are provided.
A touch-up appointment is generally included, to fine-tune your colour and shape once healing is complete.
