Lip blush is a permanent cosmetic tattoo designed to restore color, refine symmetry, and subtly define the lips. Unlike lipstick or filler, lip blush provides longer-lasting tint and a natural flush that softens gracefully over time with our technique.

Our lip blush treatment is ideal for you if you:

• want to wake up with color already on your lips

• have uneven tone, cool undertones, or lip line fading

• prefer a sheer, natural look over bold cosmetic makeup

• love clean, effortless beauty and simplified routines

Our lip blush treatment is not for you if:

• you're looking for an unnatural result 

• feel very nervous. please schedule a consult if you have questions or concerns. we do not recommend proceeding with any treatments you feel wary about and advocate for informed consent.

We have experience working with clients of every demographic to ensure everyone has access to beautiful results with expect care.

• Discuss the treatment and your lip blush goals in depth

• Sketch your lips to envision the tattooable area before we implant any pigment

• Custom-blend a pigment mix uniquely based on your undertone, lip tissue and lip goal

• Bolder results at first, that soften to a watercolor finish once healed

• Detailed aftercare instructions 

Permanent makeup artists may have the same licensure, but we all have different styles and approaches. 

At Essentials by Nicole, we are 100 percent honest in telling you if your request is a good idea or not. Although permanent makeup is meant to simplify your routine, it is a cosmetic tattoo + we want to ensure a beautiful, healed long-term result always.

When choosing a permanent makeup artist to provide your treatments, we encourage clients to book a consult first. This gives us the opportunity to see if we are aligned.
