Gentleblush

  • Gentleblush is a semi-permanent makeup technique that enhances your natural lip color. Unlike lipstick that sits on the surface, the color is gently implanted into the skin's upper layers, creating a natural-looking tint. The results are subtle—enhancing rather than heavily covering your natural lip color. For special occasions when you want bolder color, you can still apply regular lipstick over your lip.

    Key characteristics
    Creates natural-looking lip color that lasts 1-3 years.
    Can enhance lip shape and symmetry.
    Reduces the need for daily lip makeup.

  • Allergic Reactions
    Hypersensitivity to pigments
    If someone has a known allergy or sensitivity to tattoo pigments or certain metals, they may be at risk of an adverse reaction.

    Cold Sores or Herpes Simplex Virus
    Individuals who frequently get cold sores (Herpes Simplex Virus) or have an active outbreak should avoid lip tattoos. The tattooing process can trigger a flare-up, and healing may be complicated. Some practitioners might require antiviral medication to be taken before the procedure.

    Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
    Pregnant or breastfeeding women are generally advised to avoid tattoos, as there is limited research on the safety of tattoo pigments and their potential effects on the baby.

    Menstruation
    During menstruation, your pain sensitivity may be heightened. Bleeding tendency can increase during menstrual periods. The body's healing process may be slightly compromised. Skin can be more sensitive during this time.
    It's best to schedule your appointment at least 1 week before or after your menstrual cycle for optimal results and comfort.

    Skin Conditions
    Active infections or rashes
    Any active skin condition around the lips, like cold sores, eczema, or psoriasis, can make a lip tattoo unsuitable.

    Sensitive skin
    People with very sensitive skin might experience complications or poor healing, leading to infection or scarring.

    Diabetes
    Individuals with poorly controlled diabetes may have slower healing times and an increased risk of infection, which can affect the tattoo’s outcome.

    Blood Disorders
    People with blood clotting disorders (such as hemophilia or other bleeding issues) or those on blood-thinning medication (like aspirin or warfarin) may be at higher risk of excessive bleeding and complications during or after the procedure.

    Keloid Scarring
    Those who are prone to keloid scarring (excessive tissue growth after healing) may want to avoid lip tattoos, as the process could trigger this type of scarring in the sensitive lip area.

    Autoimmune Disorders
    Individuals with autoimmune conditions (such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, or other conditions that affect the immune system) may have slower healing times and be at higher risk of infection or complications.

    Certain Medications
    Some medications, such as immunosuppressants or chemotherapy drugs, can affect healing and the body’s response to tattoos. Always consult with a doctor before getting a lip tattoo if you're on any medication.

    Expectation of Result
    If you are expecting a dramatic change in lip color or fullness, it’s important to manage your expectations. A lip tattoo is a subtle enhancement, and its purpose is usually to define the lips or add slight color rather than create drastic changes.

    Unrealistic Expectations
    Some people may have unrealistic expectations about the results. Lip tattoos can enhance natural lip shape and color, but they are not a replacement for lip fillers or surgical procedures.

  • Red Base Pigment
    Best for naturally pink or medium-toned lips.
    Results in a natural-looking red tone.
    Can help neutralize slightly purple or bluish undertones.

    Orange Base Pigment
    Ideal for lips with cooler undertones.
    Helps warm up naturally purplish or mauve lips.
    Can brighten darker lip tones.

    Pink Base Pigment
    Perfect for pale or light natural lips.
    Creates a soft, natural-looking flush.
    Good for enhancing already pink-toned lips.

  • Initial Healing
    The lips may appear swollen and tender for the first 1–3 days, which is normal. Swelling usually subsides within a few days.

    Color Changes
    The tattooed color may appear darker initially and will gradually lighten and soften as the healing progresses. It may appear more vibrant and intense for the first 1-2 weeks before settling into the final shade after full healing.

    Peeling or Flaking
    As the tattoo heals, your lips may develop small scabs or flakes. This is normal, and it’s important to resist the temptation to peel or scratch them off.

    Multiple Sessions
    Depending on the depth and type of tattoo, some people may need a follow-up session for touch-ups. This is usually scheduled 4–6 weeks after the initial treatment to ensure optimal results.

  • Consultation with Your Technician
    Prior to the procedure, schedule a consultation with our technician to discuss your expectations, the color, shape, and design. Ensure you are a good candidate for the procedure, especially if you have any pre-existing conditions or concerns.

    Avoid Blood Thinners
    Avoid blood-thinning medications like aspirin, ibuprofen, or alcohol for 24–48 hours before the procedure. These can increase the risk of swelling and bruising.

    Hydrate and Moisturize
    Keep your lips hydrated before the procedure by drinking plenty of water and using a lip balm or moisturizer to prevent cracked or dry lips.

    Avoid Sun Exposure
    Stay out of the sun for a few days before your appointment. Sunburned skin can make the procedure more painful and increase the risk of complications.

    Stop Using Exfoliating Products
    Avoid using any harsh exfoliants or lip scrubs for at least 1 week prior to the treatment. This ensures the skin is not irritated or overly sensitive during the procedure.

    Avoid Caffeine
    Limit caffeine intake on the day of your procedure as it can increase sensitivity and cause unnecessary swelling.

    No Herpes/Cold Sores
    If you are prone to cold sores, consult with your technician about taking antiviral medication (like Valtrex) prior to the procedure to prevent an outbreak during or after the treatment. A cold sore outbreak can disrupt the healing process and affect the tattoo’s appearance.

    Clean Your Lips
    Make sure your lips are clean and free of any makeup or balm on the day of your treatment to ensure the best results.

  • Stay Away from Makeup
    Avoid using lipstick or any other makeup products on your lips for at least a week after the procedure. Using makeup can introduce bacteria to the area and irritate the healing tissue.

    Sun Protection
    Protect your lips from sun exposure by using a lip balm with SPF (at least SPF 30) after the initial healing period (around 1-2 weeks). The sun can fade the tattoo and irritate the healing skin.

    Avoid Touching Your Lips
    Refrain from touching your lips with dirty hands, as this can introduce bacteria and increase the risk of infection.

    No Kissing or Lip Contact
    Avoid kissing, as well as any other activities that involve direct contact with your lips (like oral activities), for at least a week to minimize the risk of infection and irritation.

    Avoid Hot Foods and Drinks
    For the first few days, avoid hot, spicy, or acidic foods and beverages, as these can irritate the treated area. Opt for cool or lukewarm foods and drinks until your lips have healed.

    Sleep on Your Back
    Sleep with your head elevated and avoid pressing your face into a pillow, as friction can disturb the healing process.

    Stay Hydrated
    Drink plenty of water throughout the healing process to keep your lips hydrated and assist in overall recovery.

Gentleliner

  • Gentleliner is a semi-permanent makeup procedure where pigment is applied to the waterline - the inner rim of the eyelid where the eyelashes grow. This delicate procedure helps create the appearance of fuller, more defined eyes.

  • Individuals with Eye Conditions
    Dry Eyes
    Those who experience chronic dry eyes may not be suitable for a waterline tattoo, as the procedure can exacerbate the condition.

    Blepharitis
    An inflammatory condition affecting the eyelids can cause complications or infections when getting an eyeliner tattoo.

    Conjunctivitis (Pink Eye)
    Active infections in the eyes make it unsafe to undergo the procedure.

    Glaucoma
    People with glaucoma may have increased sensitivity around their eyes, making the procedure risky.

    Cataracts
    People with cataracts may have issues with visual clarity, and the procedure could interfere with the healing process.

    Individuals with Sensitive or Thin Skin
    Very Sensitive Skin Around the Eyes
    Those with extremely sensitive skin might experience irritation or adverse reactions to the pigments used in permanent makeup.

    Thin Skin
    Thinner skin around the eyes can be more prone to bruising or complications during the tattooing process.

    Pregnant or Breastfeeding Women
    There is generally a recommendation to avoid cosmetic tattoos during pregnancy or breastfeeding due to potential risks and the body's changes during these times. The effects of pigments and anesthetics during pregnancy have not been fully studied.

    Menstruation
    During menstruation, your pain sensitivity may be heightened. Bleeding tendency can increase during menstrual periods. The body's healing process may be slightly compromised. Skin can be more sensitive during this time.
    It's best to schedule your appointment at least 1 week before or after your menstrual cycle for optimal results and comfort.

    People with Allergies to Pigments or Topical Anesthetics
    Allergies to Tattoo Pigments
    Some individuals may have allergic reactions to the pigments used for permanent eyeliner.

    Anesthetic Sensitivities
    Local anesthetics used to numb the eye area during the procedure can cause reactions in people with sensitivities or allergies.

    People with Active Skin Infections or Conditions Near the Eyes
    Active Skin Infections
    If someone has an active infection, such as a stye or a cold sore, around the eyes, the procedure should be postponed until it heals to avoid complications.

    Skin Conditions
    Conditions like eczema, rosacea, or psoriasis around the eyes can cause issues with the healing process or may affect the final result.

    Individuals on Certain Medications
    Blood Thinners
    People who are on medications like aspirin, blood thinners, or other anticoagulants may be more prone to excessive bleeding or bruising during the procedure.

    Accutane Users
    Individuals who have taken Accutane (Isotretinoin) in the past six months may have fragile skin, which can affect the healing process.

    Those Who Wear Contact Lenses
    Contact lens wearers may need to take extra precautions. Some people with sensitive eyes may experience discomfort during or after the procedure, particularly on the waterline, where the tattoo is most likely to be applied.

    Individuals with a History of Keloids or Scar Tissue
    People who are prone to developing keloid scars may want to avoid this procedure. The delicate skin around the eyes is more susceptible to scarring, and permanent eyeliner tattoos can sometimes cause raised or discolored scarring.

    People with Poor Healing Ability
    Individuals who have difficulty healing from wounds (due to diabetes, poor circulation, or other health conditions) may not be ideal candidates, as the skin around the eyes may not heal properly or could have complications.

    People with a Fear of Needles or Discomfort with the Procedure
    Although the procedure is relatively quick and local anesthetics are used, people who have an intense fear of needles or discomfort in that area may not be suited for the procedure.

  • Swelling & Redness
    The skin around your eyes may be slightly swollen and red immediately after the procedure. This usually subsides within 1-2 days, though some people may experience mild swelling for up to a week.

    Color Darkening & Lightening
    The tattooed area will appear dark immediately after the procedure. This is normal and will fade to a softer, more natural-looking color over the next 1-2 weeks as the skin heals.

    Scabbing or Peeling
    As the tattoo heals, you may notice light scabbing or peeling. This is part of the natural healing process, and it’s essential not to pick at it to avoid scarring or pigment loss.

    Healing Timeline
    Initial Healing
    The first 3–5 days may involve swelling and some discomfort. Peeling and Flaking
    Between 5–7 days, you may notice the area peeling or flaking as it heals.
    Full Healing
    It usually takes 4–6 weeks for the tattoo to fully heal and for the pigment to settle into its final shade.

  • Consultation
    Schedule a consultation with your technician beforehand to discuss the treatment. This is also the time to disclose any allergies or skin conditions that could affect the treatment.

    Avoid Blood Thinners
    Avoid taking blood-thinning medications (such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or alcohol) 24–48 hours before the procedure, as these can increase the risk of bleeding, swelling, and bruising.

    Stop Using Makeup
    Remove all eye makeup(including mascara, eyeliner, or eyeshadow) the day of the procedure to reduce the risk of infection and ensure the skin is clean.

    Avoid Lashes and Extensions
    If you have eyelash extensions or false eyelashes, remove them at least a day before your procedure. Extensions can interfere with the tattoo process and cause irritation.

    Avoid Eyelash Serums
    If you use products like Latisse or other eyelash serums, stop using them at least one week before your procedure. These products can make the skin more sensitive.

    Don’t Wear Contact Lenses
    Remove contact lenses before your appointment and avoid wearing them for 24 hours after the procedure. The area around your eyes will be more sensitive, and contacts may cause irritation during the healing process.

    Avoid Sun Exposure
    Try to avoid sunbathing or tanning for at least 1 week before your appointment. Sunburned or irritated skin may increase the risk of complications.

    Avoid Caffeine and Stimulants Minimize or eliminate caffeine and stimulants (including coffee, energy drinks, etc.) for at least 12 hours before your procedure. These can make you more sensitive and may lead to unnecessary swelling.

  • Avoid Eye Makeup
    Do not apply any makeup (mascara, eyeliner, or eyeshadow) to the treated area for at least 7–10 days after the procedure to avoid irritation and reduce the risk of infection.

    Avoid Rubbing or Scratching
    Do not rub, scratch, or pick at the treated area, even if it starts to peel or scab. This can cause pigment loss and increase the risk of scarring or infection.

    Sun Protection
    Avoid sun exposure to the treated area for at least 2–4 weeks post-procedure. After the healing period, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) to protect the tattoo from fading caused by sun exposure.

    No Swimming or Hot Tubs
    Avoid swimming in pools, hot tubs, or lakes for at least 2 weeks after the procedure to reduce the risk of infection from bacteria in the water.

    Avoid Sweating
    Refrain from intense physical activity, heavy sweating, or exercising for the first 5–7 days post-procedure to allow the skin to heal without excess moisture or irritation.

    Stay Hydrated and Rested
    Drink plenty of water and get adequate rest to support your body’s natural healing process. Well-hydrated skin will heal faster and more effectively.
