Your lip blush isn’t chosen from a preset color or template. We’ll select your pigment and finish based on your natural lip tone, undertone, skin tone and the result you want.
Custom Color — pigment selected specifically for your natural coloring and desired result.
Custom Finish — from barely-there enhancement to a more saturated lipstick effect.
Designed for Your Lips — your natural shape is enhanced rather than giving everyone the same look.

What My Lip Blush Clients Say

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I first visited Marisa in October 2024 for lip blushing, and returned in July 2025 for eyeliner. Both times, she was absolutely wonderful—kind, professional, and made the entire process comfortable and stress-free. I’m thrilled with the results and would highly recommend her to anyone!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The day I came home from getting my lip color touched up, my granddaughter said "I didn't know your lips were tattooed, I always thought you had lipstick on!" Color is realistic for my skin tone and age. Highly recommend having Marissa tattoo your lips.

What to Expect
Your Appointment
We’ll begin by discussing your desired color and finish. Your lip color is custom mixed specifically for you, and topical numbing is used throughout the procedure for comfort.
The First Few Days
Your lips will initially appear brighter and more saturated than the final result. Mild swelling, tenderness and dryness can be normal immediately afterward.
Healing
As your lips heal, the color will soften significantly. Flaking typically occurs during the early healing stage, and the color may temporarily appear very light before settling into the final result.
Your Final Result
Once healed, your lip blush will look softer and more natural than it did immediately after the appointment. A touch-up may be recommended to perfect color retention and achieve your desired result.
FAQs
-
Lip blush doesn’t add volume like filler, but restoring color and definition around the lip border can create the appearance of fuller, more defined lips.
-
Topical numbing is used before and throughout the procedure for comfort. Most clients experience minimal discomfort.
-
Absolutely. Your color and saturation are customized to your preferences. Lip blush initially appears much brighter and more saturated, then softens significantly as it heals.
-
Results can last up to 3+ years, although longevity varies based on your chosen color, lifestyle, skin and aftercare. Some clients choose to refresh their color sooner to maintain a more saturated result.
-
Not everyone will need one at the same time. Pigment retention varies from person to person. Once your lips are fully healed, we can determine whether additional color or refinement would benefit your result.
