Whether you desire subtle definition, a pop of color, or a fuller appearance, our tailored treatments will leave you feeling confident and beautiful.
Why Choose Lip Enhancements?
Your lips are one of your most expressive features, and enhancing their natural beauty can transform your overall look. Here’s how our treatments can help:
- Restore Lost Color: Over time, lips can lose their natural color and vibrancy. Our treatments use expertly blended pigments to bring back your youthful glow.
- Enhance Shape and Symmetry: If you have minor asymmetry or unevenness, we can correct these issues, giving you balanced, symmetrical lips.
- Long-Lasting Results: Unlike traditional makeup, our semi-permanent lip treatments ensure your color stays fresh through meals, drinks, and daily activities.
- Minimize Fine Lines: By defining the edges of your lips, we can reduce the appearance of fine lines around your mouth, leaving your lips looking smoother and more defined.
Choose Your Perfect Treatment
We offer a variety of lip treatments to suit your individual style and preferences:
1. Lip Liner
For those who want subtle enhancement and definition, lip liner creates a sharp, clean outline that complements your natural lip shape. This treatment subtly frames your lips, giving them a more defined look.
2. Lip Blush
Lip blush is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattoo that enhances your natural lip color and adds a soft tint. It improves the shape and definition of your lips while giving the illusion of fullness. This treatment is perfect for those seeking a natural, “just bitten” look with a beautiful flush of color.
3. Full Lip Tint
For a more dramatic effect, the full lip tint provides a bold and vibrant color that lasts. This treatment gives your lips the appearance of a fully applied lipstick, offering both convenience and beauty.
What is Lip Blush?
“Lip blushing is a form of semi-permanent makeup. Essentially, it is a 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,” says Tracy Ann, founder of Soft Touch Microblading.
Unlike lip fillers that add volume, lip blush enhances the color and shape of your lips, providing a more natural look. It’s perfect for anyone who wants beautifully tinted lips without the maintenance of daily makeup application.

Lips Pre-Care: Preparing for Your Treatment
- Proper preparation ensures the best results for your lip enhancement. Here’s how to get ready:
1. Cold Sore Prevention
If you’ve ever had a cold sore, start taking a lysine supplement 7 days before your appointment and continue afterward. For frequent cold sores, consult your doctor about antiviral medication.
2. Hydrate and Moisturize
Drink plenty of water and keep your lips moisturized with a gentle lip balm to ensure they’re soft and supple.
3. Avoid Certain Substances
Limit alcohol, caffeine, and blood-thinning medications (consult your doctor) 24 hours before your appointment to reduce sensitivity.
4. Protect Your Skin
Avoid sunburn, harsh skincare products, and exfoliants around your lips for at least a week before treatment.
These simple steps will help ensure smooth pigment application and optimal healing.
Lips Aftercare: Protecting Your New Look
Proper aftercare is crucial to achieving optimal results. Follow these guidelines to ensure your lips heal beautifully:
- Expect Darkening: Your lips may appear darker for a few days post-treatment before softening to their final color.
- Apply Ointment: Use a clean Q-tip to apply a thin layer of ointment 3 times a day for 5–7 days. Do not over-apply.
- Avoid Water and Products: Keep your lips dry for the first 10 days. Avoid cleansers, makeup, and products containing retinoids, acids, or peroxides.
- No Picking or Scratching: Allow scabbing or dry skin to naturally exfoliate to prevent scarring.
- Avoid Sun and Heat: Stay out of direct sunlight, tanning beds, and saunas for 3–4 weeks.
- Limit Physical Activity: Avoid heavy sweating and intense physical activity for the first few days.
- Skip Treatments: No facials, chemical peels, or Botox on the treated area for at least 4 weeks.
- Touch-Up Appointment: Book a fine-tuning session within 4–6 weeks to perfect your results.

World-Renowned Permanent Make Up Artist
Tracy Ann
I have been working as a professional makeup artist for over 20 years. I have worked with Laura Mercier for 15 years as a national makeup artist, and I also worked on the Oprah show for 5 years as a free lancer makeup artist. I have trained with the top microblading academies and have been a permanent makeup artist for 10+ years. With a career in the beauty industry for 20 years, I am knowledgeable about skin disorders which helps me deliver amazing results to my clients! I am overseen by OSHA for my practice and I am educated on workplace safety, universal precautions, cross contamination and keeping a sterile environment.
I enjoy interacting with my clients and helping them look and feel great! Microblading / permanent makeup is rewarding to me because it allows me to contribute to my clients life and I take pride in my work.
The results of lip enhancements typically last between 1-3 years, depending on factors such as skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare. Over time, the color may fade slightly, so periodic touch-ups are recommended to maintain vibrant, fresh-looking lips.
While everyone’s pain tolerance varies, most clients find that the procedure is relatively comfortable. We apply a numbing cream before the treatment to minimize any discomfort. You may feel some slight tingling or pressure during the process, but it is generally well-tolerated.
You should avoid heavy sweating, intense physical activities, and direct sun exposure for at least 1-2 days after your lip enhancement treatment. Aftercare is essential for the healing process, and it’s best to avoid water and makeup on your lips for the first few days.
Yes, you can still get lip blush if you have sensitive skin, but we recommend taking extra precautions. If you’ve had cold sores in the past, we advise taking a lysine supplement and possibly an antiviral medication before the treatment to prevent an outbreak. Consult with your technician to discuss the best plan for your skin.
