What It Is
Lip tint is a soft wash of pigment designed to enhance your natural lip tone, define the shape and increase symmetry. The goal isn’t lipstick, it’s balance: evening out color, adding a bit of life back into the lips. Color can be customized and ranges from very natural to a lipstick style look.
For people of color who’s lips are darker than they’d like or top lip and bottom lip are different colors. Dark lips require a neutralization session to blend any dark pigmented areas and neutralize their tone which can then be transformed to the desired result.
Who It’s For
This is for you if your lips feel a little muted, uneven, or like they’ve lost definition over time. It’s also a good option if you want to look a little more put together without having to think about it every day.
If you’re expecting a bold, opaque lipstick look, this probably isn’t the right service, that’s intentional.
My Approach
I work in sheer layers, building tone slowly and intentionally. Color is always customized based on your natural lip tone, undertones, and how your skin heals.
What to Expect
Initial results will look more saturated and defined, this softens significantly as it heals.
A follow-up appointment is typically needed to refine the color and finish the result.
Realistic Results
Lip tint doesn’t drastically change your lip shape, and it won’t cover heavily pigmented or very dark lips in one session. In some cases, multiple sessions or a different approach may be needed to get where you want to go.
I’ll always be upfront about what’s possible before we start.
Longevity
Results are long-lasting but not permanent. Most people come back every 1–3 years for a refresh depending on their skin, lifestyle, and how soft or defined they like the color.
