PERMANENT LIPSTICK
Permanent Lipstick, Permanent Lip Tints and Permanent Lip Blush is big news in the beauty world at the moment. Full, juicy, rosy lips can make us feel younger, more sensual and give us an unrivalled confidence boost. Think Angelina Jolie, Liv Tyler, Scarlett Johansson and Jennifer Lawrence for celebrity “Lipspiration”.
Sadly, as we get older our lips loose the natural definition and volume we are blessed with when young. Many of my clients are opting to have a lip tattoo revamp which enables them to spend less time on their morning routine and give them the confidence to go “bare lipped” all day long.
With just a slick of gloss they are ready to face the day. My lip tattoo treatments can restore shape and volume, add depth of colour, correct unflattering blue lip tones and even give the illusion of added volume without the need for filler.
My Permanent Lip Makeup Treatments
I offer a range of permanent lip tattoo treatments to enhance and restore the lips with gorgeous, natural results. My aim is to make you look and feel your best and enhance your natural features with expertly applied permanent makeup for the lips.
Choosing the Perfect Lip Colour
If you have been thinking about having your lips tattooed, then naturally you’ve been thinking about what the perfect colour would be. The lip tattoo is fast becoming a must have beauty treatment and with the vast range of lip colours now available, there’s a lot to be excited about.
The pigment range I use is vegan, cruelty free and offers longer lasting results than ever before thanks to its high density of colour.
Often, I am asked for a very subtle and natural look. Bright or dense colours are not for everyone so i’m always happy to advise and test the nude and natural options as well. There really is something for everyone.
The most popular lip colours I am asked for are pinks and peaches, these give a lovely rosy tint to the lips which looks stunningly natural. Of course, if bright and bold is your thing, then I certainly have plenty of options for you too. The colours that will suit you will largely depend on your natural lip tone so it’s important that you understand what your natural tone is.
How do we choose the perfect lip colour?
1. Identify your natural lip tone.
To determine what your lip tone is, look in the mirror and pull your bottom lip down. You should be able to see some colours in the veins inside your lip. If you see pink or
virtually no tone, then you are quite neutral and can get away with almost any colour. If the veins look purple or blue, then you have a natural cool lip tone and you will need to opt for orange or peach based colours to neutralise these naturally cool tones.
2. Test colours at home.
Check at home which colours suit you and which don’t. If you have naturally cool
undertones, it is likely warmer peaches pinks and orange reds that will look best. If you prefer cooler pinks or reds then it is not completely out of the question but some tweaks may be needed to ensure the correct outcome.
3. Wear your chosen colour for a while.
Once you’ve chosen the colour that you think you’d like to have as a lip tattoo, wear it consistently for a while to ensure you’re happy with your choice.
4. Wear your chosen colour to your consultation.
It’s a great idea to bring your ideal shade of lip colour to your lip tattoo consultation to give me an idea of the result you are trying to achieve. This helps me to understand what you’re used to wearing on a daily basis and custom blend the pigments to match your desired lip colour.
The Lip Tattoo : What to expect
If you’re considering a lip tattoo, then you will instinctively want to know what to expect from the treatments, it’s good to know that :
- A full consultation and patch test is performed a minimum of 48 hours before treatment.
- There is very little down time after the treatment. No time off work is required.
- Lips can be quite swollen immediately after the treatment, so it’s best not to make social plans on the day of your appointment. This usually subsides within 24 hours.
- Healing can take 7-10 days.
- Lips can be quite dry and flaky during healing.
- The colour will look stronger for the first few days after the treatment.
- It’s s good idea to avoid spicy or very salty foods and to drink through a straw for a day or two after treatment.
- You can expect up to 60% colour loss during healing. I recommend a retouch to boost the results within 12 weeks which is included in the price.
- The treatment is not painful, most clients experience only minor discomfort.
- Whilst lip tattoo treatments do not cause cold sores, clients who have previously suffered from cold sores (Herpes Simplex Virus) are advised to obtain Acyclovir (Zovirax) medication from their Pharmacy or Doctor prior to treatment to help avoid the possibility of an outbreak.

Where do I start. I held out for a while getting my eyebrows microbladed and really did my research because I wanted someone I could trust, and someone I knew who would do an amazing job and Sara… didn’t disappoint. In fact, she exceeded my expectations. Sara made me feel so safe and welcome. To start with, all the safety provisions put in place post Covid are very professional and very thorough and at no point did I feel at risk. But the eyebrows.. I cannot thank Sara enough for the absolutely beautiful brows she has given me. She was so careful and really listened to what I wanted but also offered her professional advice and the results. She’s a lovely lady and the whole experience was such a positive one, i highly recommend her to get your permanent make up done!!read more

If you want a perfectionist for any treatment it would be tattooing your face…. I have just had my brow re-touch with Sara and I am thrilled with the result. Totally professional and extremely… thorough. Sara takes her time to explain everything and makes sure that you are 100% happy with what she is doing. The colour and shape of my brows are perfect (No exaggeration). I Could nt go anywhere else. She is super talented and clearly loves what she does.. Thanks Sararead more

When I first met Sara my eyebrows were a mess; not because they were over plucked or bushy, but because they had already been microbladed and were uneven and the pigment had turned grey.Thankfully… after a consultation Sara agreed to take me on as a client and shortly after we began the correction process. After almost 5 months I am over the moon with how they look.Sara has been professional, supportive and informative throughout the whole process and I am so glad that I contacted her.read more

Wow. Sara is amazing at what she does. I have been thinking of having my eyebrows microbladed for well over a year. But with something so permanent and on the face I wanted to be sure I was doing… the right thing. A friend had recently had the same procedure who then recommended Sara to me. And after seeing my friends results I immediately booked an appointment. Upon arrival of the clinic I was welcomed to a huge reception room that was very clean airy and comfortable. Upon meeting Sara I immediately warmed to her. She was so welcoming and friendly. Sara talked me through the procedure and any anxiety I may have had disappeared. Sara spent a while perfecting the desired shape and once happy got to work. Its apparent Sara is a perfectionist and aims to deliver only her best work, she ensured I was ok throughout the procedure. Sara is a true professional and its clear she loves what she does as she was as excited as I was when I looked into the mirror to see my AMAZING NATURAL eyebrows. After a thank you hug Sara ensured I understood the aftercare. I’m extremely excited to attend my follow up appointment and see my final results. Thank you Sara. Xxread more

To say I was nervous, would be a huge understatement. I remember driving to the salon, thinking I am going to turn around and go home, stuff the upfront monies. Well, I walked in and the salon… reception was a large bright airy room, very inviting with large black sofas. This lady, who I later realised was Sara looked up, with a bright smile (instantly putting me at ease). Sara was professional, acknowledged my apprehension and reassured me. Spent ages ensuring I was happy with the shape. Explained what she was doing. She washed her hands and used a sterile dressing pack. This lady knows her stuff. The only thing left to say; I LOVE MY BROWS! They are super natural looking. Sorry for the long review; which BTW I NEVER leave reviews, ever! But, credit where credit is due. I would recommend this professional to anyone. Thank you so much, Sara. ��read more

Sara is absolutely amazing! She is a true professional and works utter magic. My eyebrows were so fair and sparse that it looked as though I didn’t have any. I was fed up with pencilling them on… daily, and so decided to have them tattooed on but I was incredibly nervous about having them done in case they went wrong or the result didn’t suit me. Sara, however, put me at ease instantly, and I knew I was in good hands. The results were amazing and 2 years on, I’m still thrilled with how they look. I highly recommend her, her work is amazing!read more

Im not on Facebook, however I really felt I needed to review this lady coz she’s so good at what she does…..so I’ve borrowed my mums page to rate her! I was concerned about getting my eyebrows… tattooed for so long as I just felt it’s on your face & if I didn’t like it then it’s too l8! However after meeting with Sarah initially she instantly put me at ease & the reason for that is her confidence & knowledge. Sarah drew them in first & measured them out precisely, just from that I knew I’d like them once completed. I’m also a bit of a wimp when it comes to needles, however I can honestly say when Sarah first started it just felt like she was drawing them on! I couldn’t believe how painfree it was (due to the anaesthetic), the anaesthetic obviously wears off during the process & when it starts to get a little uncomfortable Sarah reapplied the anaesthetic & started again. On completion I felt as though my face was transformed (for the better!), they look brilliant. The reason I wanted them done is I needed a little reconstructive work due to uneven eyebrows, I opted for combination brow. Great value, great end result, Sarah is lovely & I couldn’t recommend her more!!!! I’ve had so many compliments. Thanks Sarah I’m so happyread more
