There is a growing hike in the use of semi-permanent makeup. People around the globe now opt for semi-permanent makeup options, as they are safe and long-lasting. Semi-permanent lip blush is one such treatment, which is now broadly used as it is only minimally invasive and gives your lips the right kind of pigmentation to suit your facial characteristics. There is an increasing number of women opting for lip blush treatment as it is a time-saving alternative.
A lip blush treatment is a lip tattoo, which uses a gentle, less invasive method of color implantation to bring out a shade to flatter your features. You can easily get confused on which color to choose while getting a lip pigmentation done. However, we can simplify this process at BROWZ, as our therapists will take you through the colors, which will suit your face.
How To Pick A Shade?
While some faces can sport bold, bright lips, other faces may require subtle shades of pink or peach. There are a few things to consider before picking out a shade for your lip tattoo. The most crucial factor is complexion. It is vital to understand your skin tone before finalizing a pigmentation shade for your lips.
Some of the factors to look out for include:
Undertone: Identifying your undertone will help you to choose colors that fit you best. You can identify your undertone by examining the veins on your wrist. If they are blue, you have cool, pink undertones, and if they are green, you have warm yellow undertones. However, if you have both blue and green undertones, you are neutral, which means that most shades will suit your complexion.
Combinations: The next step is to identify which shade goes with which undertone. Yellow undertones work well with warm colors, whereas pink undertones look better with blue or purple shades.
Suitable Shades For Different Skin Tones
Pale skin: Nude toned lip colors suit people with pale skin. These shades broadly include peaches and pinks. It is best to avoid dark shades of red or brown as this will contrast with your skin tone, and the stark difference may look too dramatic.
Dark skin: People with dark complexions have more choices of lip colors, and they can try out shades of corals, oranges, and red. However, it is best to stay away from colors with too much white in them, as this can also cause a dramatically nude look.
Olive skin: The best colors for olive skin include warm, natural tones. You can go for sunset reds, corals, and amber shades. Avoid purples and browns as the former will highlight your yellow undertone, whereas a brown will look too monochromatic.
Light Asian skin: Light skinned Asians usually have coral undertones. Therefore, you can opt for coral shades or even hues of red. Stay away from nude shades, as this can make your whole face look bland.
Dark Asian skin: People with dark Asian skin usually have blue undertones, which means that the exact color will not be shown on your lips. To counter this, we can always apply a bright orange to create a rich base to achieve the color match you intend to get.
