  • How Long Does Lip Blushing Last?
    A lip blush tattoo cared for properly will last anywhere between 1-3 years. Lip blush tattoos are not completely permanent because our lips constantly regenerate. This is a good thing because as our lifestyles change, so do our lip colour preferences. For example, if you go from red hair to blonde, you may wish to change the undertones of your lips! You can apply a lip blush tattoo every 6 months after your initial appointment. A touch-up allows the ultimate flexibility for colour direction or sheerness level. While a lip blush tattoo can last for 1-3 years, lifestyle and skin type can impact how long the effects last. Things like smoking, sun exposure, excessively oily skin, exfoliation, and iron deficiencies can speed up the loss of colour. Also, those with dark lips or deep purple undertones may need refreshers more often to keep the colour strong. In these situations, having your lip blush tattooed every 6-12 months will keep those lips constantly beautiful.

    Before your artist begins the lip blushing procedure, they will apply a topical anaesthetic cream to your lips. This prevents you from feeling pain during the process. Most guests do not feel any discomfort during the lip blushing procedure itself. Some experience a mild scratching or pinching sensation. For this reason your artist will offer ongoing anaesthetic throughout the procedure if required. With that said, all guests have unique pain tolerance thresholds. Our most sensitive guests rank the experience between 2 and 4 on the standard pain scale. Many of them rank getting a traditional tattoo much higher. In fact, several have said getting their eyebrows waxed was more painful! It is normal for your lips to feel sensitive for several days following your appointment. To reduce sensitivity, avoid hot drinks and salty, acidic and/or spicy foods.

  • Are Machine Nano Brows Better Than Microblading?
    The machine tool used for nano brows allows the artist to create a hyper-realistic hairstroke that doesn’t go as deep as a handheld tool used for microblading and nanoblading. This means the risk of scarring and long term trauma to the dermis is minimal compared with microblading. This reduction in trauma also means that machine nano brows allow permanent brow treatments for those with thin, oily or sensitive skin…skin types that may have been turned down for microblading in the past.

  • Who Should Get Nano Brows?
    Machine Nano Brows are a solution for people of all ages and skin types. Nano brows are great for those who suffer thinning of the brows. This may be due to a variety of reason, but is notably common after menopause or from taking certain medications. It is also great as a treatment before or after chemotherapy (including those with auto immune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis, who may suffer brow thinning due to chemotherapy treatments). Aymie is a registered nurse with a post graduate degree in oncology nursing, she is also happy to provide brow tattoo services to those on active chemotherapy/immunotherapy depending on where you are within your treatment cycle and in consultation with your care coordinator and/or oncologist.
