The enhancement of your natural lip color. This can be customized from a beautiful tint to a bolder coverage depending on your starting point, and preference. Lip blushing redefines the border of your lips, corrects minor asymmetry, and can even out any scars/uneven coloration. While this service can give you the illusion of bigger and fuller lips, I can't tattoo outside of the natural border of your lips! The touch up is required at 8-16 weeks after the initial session
Lip neutralization is a process that involves shifting cooler / darker lip tones to a lighter desired colored, creating a more unified color throughout the lips. This service can require multiple sessions depending on your starting point & your desired end result. Please note that you have the potential to experience more darkness in your lips during the healing stages but know they will lighten! Touch ups are required 18-28 weeks after the initial session.

With lip blushing, the color is designed to enhance your natural lip color rather then drastically your natural color. Depending on what your starting point is, will depend on where we can go with your color! Keep in mind that this is a tattoo and something that you'll be walking around with everyday! Lip neutralizations involve a very similar thought process - we want to enhance your undertone while also brightening your lips (just depending on your starting point and end goal). Multiple sessions are often required to get to desired goal!
Lip blushing is known to redefine the natural lip border and enhance the color throughout, often giving the appearance of bigger lips. However, I am confined by the vermillion border of your lips and I cannot tattoo outside of that border. If I were to do so, it would create an obviously over-lined look! If you are looking for more volume in your lips, you should consider lip filler. Very minor adjustments can be made to the shape of your lips but they must be made within the vermillion border. For injector recommendations please reach out to me.
Many people are prone to cold sores, as long as you are taking an antiviral prescribed by your doctor, your chance of an outbreak will be minimized. For some that have never experienced an outbreak, tattooing can trigger one. Please note that this doesn't guarantee that you wont experience an outbreak but it does minimize the likelihood of a breakout.
While lip blushing and neutralizations have the power to change your lip color, it will not be able to cover freckles or moles permanently! You will still be able to see the freckles or moles on your lip through your cosmetic tattoo.
Depending on multiple factors such as lifestyle and skin type, these services can last anywhere from 2-5+ years without an additional touch up. It all depends on how much they have faded, not neccessarily time frame. You want them to be at least 60% faded before we do any type of color boost.
If you have ANY sort of previous work done at ANY point in time, please send photos for approval PRIOR to booking an appointment! Previous work must be at least 70% faded before we can tattoo over them to ensure the most natural results!
Yes, as long as the filler is placed responsibly! There needs to be at least 8 weeks gap between the appointments. If your lips are too overfilled we will recommend getting your existing filler dissolved. If you are considering filler, I always recommend getting the lip blushing first and filler second. Please note filler has a tendency to swell more and they can require additional sessions due to uneven placement of the filler often leading to uneven healing!
Before every appointment we will begin by discussing your goals, your unique lips and expectations, making sure you are very informed throughout the whole process.
Because we can't change your lip shape, the mapping will be about redefining the exact border of your lips while trying to address any minor asymmetry. Please note that the symmetry adjustments are very minor if possible!
Once the mapping is finished, we get straight into the tattooing, we prefer not to use numbing for lips as it often makes the skin harder and heals more uneven. We encourage you to being headphones or anything that would make the process more comfortable for you!
At the end of your appointment we will discuss aftercare and what to expect during the healing process. We will set up your touch up for 10-14 weeks and you are off to enjoy your day!
"10/10 experience with Anna! I’ve had 2 sessions of lip neutralization. She was very thorough explaining the whole process from pre-appointment, during and post appointment. Initially I just wanted even tone which I do feel was achieved after the first session, but by the time of touch-up, I decided to go more rosy -but still natural and couldn’t be happier with how they’re looking! In addition to loving Anna’s work, she is also just an amazingly fun person to be around and talk to. She made me feel so comfortable like we were just best friends hangout! I am also in the beauty industry and will go as far as to say I’m pretty picky about my personal service providers but Anna has gone above and beyond my expectations on every level."
"Anna was absolutely amazing!! She listened to every complaint I had about my natural lips and gave me my dream lips! Not only do I feel confident to leave the house with no makeup but it’s cut my time getting ready in half. Reapplying lipstick every 20 mins throughout the day is no longer a worry of mine. Anna is such a sweetheart, she walked me through the whole process and answered all my questions. 10/10 would recommend getting your lips blushed by her!"
"Woke up today with Wickedly gorgeous lips and brows by Anna! Anna did an amazing job on my face. I was a bit apprehensive about the process, particularly the lips, but she put me at ease. She walked me through every step of the process, and patiently answered all of my questions. Thank you Anna for your amazing work and positive attitude!!! Looking forward to seeing you at the perfecting appointment in March!!"
