Following the Lip Blush procedure, clients may experience mild swelling and redness, which typically subsides within the first 1-2 days. The color will initially look 50% darker, and then lighten up substantially by day 4. Your lips will begin to peel around day 3-4, and be completely peeled around day 5. After day 5, you can wear makeup on your lips. Full healing takes around 6 weeks, by which point you will see the color fully "bloom" to a more muted, softer tone of the original color freshly tattooed.
