YOUR COURSE

Lip Blush is a sophisticated modern lip PMU technique known for its soft color enhancement and beautifully polished finish. This machine technique creates the appearance of healthier, more balanced lips by layering pigment in a smooth veil of color that can range from sheer and delicate to more vibrant and defined.

Lip Blush delivers a refined result that flatters lips with uneven color, loss of definition, or a naturally pale appearance.
