LIPS PERMANENT MAKEUP

Why Permanent Makeup for Lips is a Game-Changer

Imagine having beautifully tinted, perfectly shaped lips every day—without the need for constant reapplication of lipstick or gloss. Permanent makeup offers you this luxury, giving you lips that are always kissable, vibrant, and smudge-proof. Here’s why PMU for lips is a fantastic choice:

  • Time-saving: With permanent lip makeup, you can bid farewell to the time-consuming daily ritual of applying lip liner and lipstick. Wake up with beautifully defined, ready-to-go lips, and enjoy the freedom of spending less time in front of the mirror.
  • Boosts Confidence: A perfectly shaped, pigmented lip can dramatically enhance your overall appearance and boost your self-esteem. With your lips always looking their best, you’ll feel more confident and empowered in both your personal and professional life.
  • Long-lasting Results: Unlike traditional lip makeup that requires constant touch-ups throughout the day, permanent lip makeup is designed to last for years. This means fewer touch-ups, less smudging, and a consistently polished look.
  • Smudge-proof and Waterproof: Permanent lip makeup won’t smudge, fade or wash away like traditional cosmetics. You can enjoy a worry-free day at the beach, the gym, or any other activity without the fear of your lip colour wearing off.
  • Corrects Asymmetry: If you have uneven or poorly defined lips, permanent lip makeup can help correct and enhance their natural shape. Our expert artists will skilfully create a balanced and symmetrical appearance, making your lips look more harmonious and attractive.
  • Restores Youthful Appearance: As we age, our lips can lose their natural pigment and fullness. Permanent lip makeup can help restore a youthful appearance by adding vibrancy and volume to your lips, giving you a rejuvenated and fresh look.
  • Low Maintenance: Permanent lip makeup significantly reduces the need for constant cosmetic upkeep. Enjoy the convenience of not needing to carry lip products with you everywhere or worry about reapplying throughout the day.
  • Colour Corrector: Another notable benefit of permanent lip makeup is its ability to correct colour differences between the upper and lower lips, providing a more harmonious and balanced appearance. A prime example of this is Michael Jackson, who successfully used permanent lip makeup to address the color disparity between his naturally lighter lower lip and darker upper lip. By expertly blending pigments, our artists at Glam Iconic Beauty can skilfully even out lip color, enhancing your overall look and boosting your confidence in your appearance..

Lip Blush

Lip Blush is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing technique that enhances the natural color and shape of your lips. This technique creates a soft, natural tint that adds definition and the appearance of fullness, while still looking beautifully natural.

Ombre Lips

Ombre Lips combine the best of both worlds—soft shading at the edges of your lips with a gradual fade towards the center. This technique creates a beautiful gradient effect that adds depth and dimension, making your lips appear fuller and more defined.

Lip Liner

For those who want to define their lip shape or create the illusion of fuller lips, Lip Liner PMU is an ideal option. This technique involves tattooing a fine line along the border of your lips, enhancing their natural shape and providing a perfectly crisp outline that stays in place.

At Glam Iconic Beauty, we strive to make your experience with permanent makeup for lips smooth, enjoyable, and absolutely flawless. Here’s what you can expect before, during, and after your appointment.

Before Your Appointment: Preparing for Your Perfect Pout

  1. Consultation: Prior to your appointment, you’ll have a detailed consultation with one of our skilled artists. We’ll discuss your desired lip shape, color, and style, ensuring we achieve a look that enhances your natural beauty.
  2. Avoid Certain Products and Treatments: In the week leading up to your appointment, avoid using products that can thin your blood, such as aspirin, alcohol, or caffeine. Refrain from lip fillers or treatments at least three weeks before your appointment to allow your lips to be in their most natural state.
  3. Skin and Lip Preparation: Keep your lips moisturized and healthy. Avoid heavy exfoliation or the use of harsh products on your lips for at least three days prior. Well-hydrated lips are more responsive to the PMU process.
  4. Cold Sores Precaution: If you have a history of cold sores, start taking a prescription anti-viral medication at least one week before your appointment to prevent an outbreak during or after the procedure.
  • Design and Mapping: We begin by carefully mapping out your new lip shape, using precise measurements to ensure symmetry and balance. You’ll have the opportunity to review and approve the design before we proceed.
  • Numbing: To ensure your comfort, we apply a topical numbing cream to the lips. This significantly minimizes any discomfort during the procedure, making the experience as pleasant as possible.
  • The Procedure: Depending on your chosen technique—whether it’s lip blush, full lip color, or ombre lips—we will carefully apply the pigment to your lips. Our skilled artists use meticulous techniques to achieve a smooth, even, and beautiful result.
  • Final Touches: Once the pigment is applied, we’ll make any necessary adjustments to perfect the shape and color. After ensuring everything is flawless, we’ll give you a first look at your stunning new lips.

Lips PMU Aftercare: Essential Steps for Perfect Healing

To ensure your lips heal beautifully after your permanent makeup procedure and to maximize the longevity of your results, it’s crucial to follow these aftercare instructions closely:

  1. Clean Hands First: Always make sure your hands are thoroughly clean before touching your lips to prevent infection.
  2. Gentle Cleansing: Wash your lips before bed with lukewarm water and an unscented soap or cleanser. This will help keep the area clean and free from bacteria.
  3. Apply Aftercare Ointment: After cleansing, apply the aftercare ointment provided by your artist in a thin layer. Repeat this process in the morning and evening for 5 days. This will keep your lips moisturized and aid in the healing process.
  4. Treat It Like a Tattoo: Remember, your lips are now essentially a fresh tattoo. Care for them like you would an open wound. Avoid over-saturating your lips with the healing balm, but also make sure they don’t dry out completely.
  5. No Makeup for a Week: Avoid applying any lip makeup for 1 week, except for the healing balm given to you. This helps prevent irritation and ensures the pigment sets correctly.
  6. Avoid Touching and Picking: Refrain from scratching, picking, or licking any dry skin or flakiness that may occur. This can disrupt the healing process and cause uneven pigment retention.
  7. Watch What You Eat: Avoid spicy foods during the first 24 hours after your procedure, as they can irritate your lips.
  8. Protect from Moisture: For the first 5 days, avoid any foreign body fluids in or around your lips. This includes kissing and sharing drinks.
  9. Limit Physical Activity: Avoid activities that will cause extreme sweating for 5 days, as sweat can interfere with the healing process.
  10. Avoid Water Exposure: Steer clear of swimming pools, hot tubs, or other bodies of water for 5 days. Excess moisture can negatively affect the healing process.
  11. Shield from UV Rays: Protect your lips from UV exposure, including tanning booths, for at least 5 days. UV rays can alter the color of the pigment and impact healing.
  12. Avoid Laser Treatments: Do not undergo any laser light therapy on or near the lips, as it can darken, lighten, or distort the pigment.
  13. No Harsh Products: Avoid using exfoliants, retinol acids, glycolic acids, or alpha hydroxy acids on the area for 30 days, as these can cause premature fading of the pigment.
  14. Pause Skin Treatments: Postpone any massages, facials, or skin treatments for at least 5 days to allow your lips to heal without interference.

Aftercare is the final, crucial step in your PMU journey. Proper care not only ensures that your lips heal well but also maximizes the longevity of your new lip color. Neglecting aftercare can lead to uneven healing, pigment loss, or even infection. By following the recommended aftercare steps, you’re investing in the long-term beauty and durability of your lips, making sure they remain as stunning as the day you got them.

At Glam Iconic Beauty, we’re with you every step of the way, from your first consultation to your final follow-up. Your satisfaction and safety are our top priorities, ensuring that your lip transformation is nothing short of perfection.

To achieve the best possible results, we recommend scheduling a touch-up appointment 8 weeks after your initial session. It’s important to note that the lips lighten up to 50% compared to the shade you get right after a lip permanent makeup over the course of 8 weeks, at which point more colour can be added. This allows our artists to perfect the colour and shape, ensuring that your lips look stunningly glamorous.
