Lip Blushing & Dark Lip Equalization
WHAT IS LIP BLUSHING?
With the popularity of microblading growing, a new treatment has also been developing. We can get our brows pigmented so why not pigment our lips too? In today’s age, we desire to walk out the door looking like the version of ourselves we like best, many of us wearing lipstick daily. Lip blushing is a breakthrough technique giving clients a pigmented lip color 24/7.
Like brow pigmentation, lip pigmentation lasts 1-2 years. On the first treatments the lips are mapped out, meticulously taking notice of the curve of the cupids bow and lower edges of the lip line. This lip mapping process ensures that the client and artist are on the same page with the overall shape. The defined lip mapping allows all discussions to be clear before moving forward with the first step, making the lip line with the machine. After the line is perfected, the inside of the lips are pigmented. Treatments can take up to 4 hours as the pigmentation is a layering process.
The lips will take approximately 7 days to heal superficially and up to 5 weeks to heal completely. A second treatment should be completed to address minor discrepancies and color saturation.
WHAT IS DARK LIP EQUALIZATION?
Dark lip equalization uses pigment and color theory to camouflage and equalize cool lip tones in clients that have increase melanin.
All clients want to feel beautiful. With the Dark Lip Equalization technique, lip pigmentation can reach a wider audience.
Dark lip equalization can be a longer journey for the client, taking 2 – 3 treatments. The first treatment is specifically designed as equalization only. This treatment’s purpose is to bring the clients lip to one neutral color. The second treatment is for the target color implementation. The target color is the color the client would like the lips to be.
Finally, on some clients a third treatment is needed for minor discrepancies and touchups. This is where the lip details are perfected. Each client is a case by case and is assed by the artist before treatment commencement.
Dark Lip Equalization Certification is the second day of the Lip Blushing Certification.
