Studio — Melbourne, by appointment
Artist — Olha Po
Lip blush is personalised cosmetic lip pigmentation that enhances your natural lip colour and definition, for a soft, balanced appearance. We don’t draw a new mouth. We work with the colour and border you already have.
Suits — Pale or uneven natural colour
Clients often come to us with lips that look pale, colour that’s uneven from one side to the other, or a border that fades into the skin. Some simply want to rely less on daily lipstick. Lip blush adds a soft wash of colour and gentle definition, so your lips look like yours, only more balanced.
Suitability is personal and is confirmed at consultation, after we’ve talked through your health information and skin. You can read more on our Safety, Suitability & Risks page. Lip blush adds colour, not volume. We don’t offer fillers or injectable treatments. If you’re looking for those, please speak with a qualified healthcare professional.
Lip border — Close view
Reference image: a lip pencil following the natural border. Before any pigment is chosen, we study where your border sits and how the colour changes across it.
Tone — Your skin
Your skin’s undertone shapes how a pigment reads once it settles, so we choose a shade for you, not from a fixed chart.
Colour — Your lips
We look at your natural lip colour and any darker or uneven areas. If darker pigmentation is the main concern, we may talk with you about Dark Lip Neutralisation first.
Preference — Your look
Some clients want a barely-there flush, others a little more presence. For a softer wash or a fuller finish, see Aquarelle Lips or Lipstick Effect Tattoo.
01
We look at your natural colour, border and symmetry, and note any previous lip tattoo.
02
We go through suitability, possible risks and the health and safety information required before treatment under Victorian regulations.
03
Together we agree on the shape and pigment. We’ll talk through what’s realistic for your lips, but we won’t promise an exact result.
04
Lip blush is a skin-penetration procedure, so we carry it out with careful infection-control practices at our Melbourne studio.
05
Your colour settles gradually as you heal. Once it has, we review it with you, and a touch-up may be needed.
Colour — Fresh is not final
Straight after treatment, fresh pigment often looks brighter or darker than the final result. The healed colour comes through gradually, and it differs from person to person. Knowing this beforehand helps you look after your lips patiently while they heal.
Read Why Fresh Lip Colour Isn’t the Final Result and our Healing & Aftercare guide.
Cosmetic lip tattooing is a skin-penetration procedure. Results vary between individuals, healing and pigment retention can’t be guaranteed, and some clients need a touch-up or more than one session.
Treatments are led by Olha Po, Founder & Certified Cosmetic Tattoo Artist, who has worked in cosmetic tattooing since 2016. The consultation and quote are free, so you can ask questions before deciding.
