Lip tint works by depositing pigment into the lips to create a natural-looking stain. A professional lip tint procedure uses a very fine needle to apply tiny amounts of pigment in a dotting or stippling pattern. This technique mimics the natural distribution of lip color, resulting in a subtle and even enhancement.
The Process Explained
- Pigment Placement: A skilled technician carefully places pigment dots, ensuring they match the client's natural lip tone and overall skin complexion.
- Blending: Over time, these individual pigment dots gradually blend, creating a seamless and natural-looking lip color. This differs from other lip color applications which simply sit on top of the lip's surface.
- Long-lasting Color: The pigment is deposited beneath the surface, creating a long-lasting stain that doesn't easily fade or smudge like traditional lipstick or lip gloss.
Advantages of Lip Tint
- Natural Look: The stippling technique allows for a gradual build-up of color, creating a very natural and subtle enhancement.
- Long-lasting Results: Because the pigment is implanted, the color lasts much longer than conventional makeup.
- Customizable: Pigments can be tailored to match the client's skin tone and desired lip shade.
