Lets talk about Lips
Lip blush has a few techniques.
For example aquarelle, lipstick or 3D technique.
Lip blushing is a design technique used to add a sheer wash of colour to the lips.
Lip blushing can also be used to enhance the shape of the lip, making it a great option for those who want to add definition without the surgical commitment of lip implants or dermal fillers.
The treatment can also help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the lips. Ink colours and coverage varies depending on individual preferences, enhancing or restoring the natural colour of the lips or creating a more vibrant lip shade altogether
Results can last anywhere from one-and-a-half to three years, depending on factors such as the individual’s skin type, lifestyle habits, and daily suncare regime.
What Exactly Are Aquarelle Lips?
Aquarelle Lips is a revolutionary semi-permanent makeup technique that deposits delicate pigments into the upper layers of the lips, creating a soft, gradient wash of colour reminiscent of a watercolour painting. Unlike traditional lip tattooing, which often uses solid, bold lines, this method produces a sheer tint that naturally enhances your lips’ shape and tone.

Why Choose Aquarelle Lips Over Traditional Lip Tattooing?
Traditional lip tattoos tend to use more vivid pigments and create defined outlines, resulting in a bold look. In contrast, Aquarelle Lips focuses on a soft, blended appearance with color intensity concentrated in the center of the lips, fading gently towards the edges. This creates a youthful, natural effect perfect for anyone seeking subtle lip enhancement.
