Cosmetic Lip Tattoo
Lip blushing is a form of cosmetic tattoo of the lips that enhances the beauty of the natural lip color, improving the shape of the lips, giving definition and the illusion of fullness. Lip blush delivers a more natural look and give the illusion of fuller lips.
Aside from having a lip color that won't fade or smudge no matter how many coffees or cocktails you down, lip tattooing also defines the shape of the lips and depending on the technique, can make them look slightly fuller too without fillers!
