Why Everyone is Talking About Lip Blushing in 2024
Lip blushing has become one of the hottest beauty trends of 2024, and for good reason. This semi-permanent makeup procedure, offered at Feather & Blade, enhances your natural lip color and shape with a soft, tinted finish. Whether you want fuller-looking lips, better symmetry, or just a natural flush of color, lip blushing offers subtle, long-lasting results without the need for daily lipstick application (Johnson & Anbouba, 2023).
What is Lip Blushing?
Lip blushing uses a machine to deposit pigment into your lips, creating a gentle tint with a more defined shape. Unlike the heavy lip tattoos of the past, today’s lip blushing delivers a natural look that lasts 1-3 years (Neal Studio, n.d.). While it won’t replace your favorite lipstick forever, it offers the convenience of a permanent tint that simplifies your daily routine.
Why It’s Trending
People are embracing time-saving beauty treatments, and lip blushing is perfect for those looking to enhance their features without heavy makeup. Customizable colors, minimal recovery time, and long-lasting results make it an ideal solution for beauty lovers in 2024. Social media influencers, such as makeup guru Mikayla Nogueira, have helped fuel the trend by opting for lip blushing to achieve a naturally fuller, camera-ready look without the need for fillers. She is one of the many TikTok beauty influencers who are showcasing their before-and-after results to their followers. These videos have racked up millions of views as viewers are starting to hop on the trend and try it for themselves (Nogueira, 2024).
What to Expect
The procedure is quick with minimal discomfort, and most clients experience only a day of swelling and a few days of healing. The final color will lighten by up to 50% during this period, leaving you with a natural-looking tint. Touch-ups are typically needed every 12-18 months.
