Full Lips: Your Ultimate Guide to Naturally Defined, Youthful Lips!

Are you tired of constantly applying lip liner and lipstick? Dreaming of perfectly tinted, fuller-looking lips, without daily effort? Then you might be the perfect candidate for Full Lips, a semi-permanent makeup treatment that enhances your natural lip color and shape with long-lasting results.

In this complete guide to Full Lip Tattooing, you’ll find everything you need to know before booking your appointment. From what to expect during the process to how to care for your lips afterward, we’ve gathered all the details, plus access to all our related articles on lip blush techniques, healing, myths, and more.

What Is Full Lips?

Full Lip Blush, also known as Full Lip Tint or Full Lips, is a modern semi-permanent makeup treatment that deposits pigment into the entire surface of the lips to:

  • Add color
  • Define the lip border
  • Enhance symmetry
  • Correct fading or uneven tone
  • Create a naturally plump appearance

Unlike older tattoo techniques, today’s lip blush is subtle, soft, and completely customizable. You won’t get harsh outlines or fake-looking color. Instead, expect a sheer wash of pigment that enhances your lips’ natural beauty.

Benefits of Full Lip Tattooing:

Why are so many clients opting for full lip blush? Here are some top reasons:

  •  Long-lasting color for 2–3 years
  • No smudging or fading throughout the day
  • Saves time in your makeup routine
  • Custom shades tailored to your skin tone
  • Improves lip definition and symmetry
  • Can help neutralize dark or uneven lip tones
  • Gives the illusion of volume without fillers

Whether you want a bold effect or a barely-there tint, full lip blush is one of the most versatile PMU treatments available.

The Lips: Step by Step!

Here’s what to expect when you book a Full Lips session at Cosmetic by Banou:

  1. Personalized Consultation:

We begin by discussing your ideal lip shape and color. Nancy Akbari, our expert artist, will help you choose the best pigment for your complexion and lifestyle.

  1. Design & Mapping:

Your lips are pre-drawn with a pencil to visualize the shape and symmetry before tattooing begins.

  1. Numbing:

A topical anesthetic ensures minimal discomfort throughout the procedure.

  1. Pigment Implantation:

Using a PMU machine with ultra-fine needles, pigment is implanted evenly across the entire lip area, building depth, definition, and color.

  1. Aftercare:

You’ll be guided through detailed aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing and beautiful results.

Healing & Aftercare for Full Lips:

The healing process typically unfolds as follows:

  • Days 1–3: Lips appear very bold and swollen.
  • Days 4–7: Flaking begins — do not pick or peel!
  • Week 2–3: Color softens to a natural hue.
  • Week 6: Touch-up session perfects the tone and shape.

Important aftercare tips:

  • Avoid kissing, spicy food, or hot drinks for 3–5 days
  • Do not apply makeup on the lips until fully healed
  • Use only the healing balm provided
  • Stay hydrated and avoid sun exposure

Is Full Lips Right for You?

This service is ideal for:

  1. Clients with pale, fading, or uneven lip color
  2. Those who want a long-lasting solution to lipstick
  3. People with asymmetrical lips or undefined lip lines
  4. Anyone looking to neutralize dark pigmentation in the lip
  5. Clients who want fuller-looking lips without injections

Nancy Akbari also specializes in lip neutralization for clients with melanin-rich or cool-toned lips, creating a beautiful, warm base before applying the final color.

Common Concerns & Myths Debunked:

1. Does it hurt?

Thanks to numbing creams and Nancy’s gentle technique, most clients describe the discomfort as minimal.

2. Will it look too dark or unnatural?

No! Modern pigments and techniques ensure a soft, natural result. Initial color appears bold but fades to your desired shade after healing.

3. Is it permanent?

No, it’s semi-permanent. Results last 2–3 years, depending on your skin, lifestyle, and how well you follow aftercare.

4. Can I wear lipstick afterward?

Yes! Once healed, you can still wear lipstick, or enjoy waking up with perfect lips every day.
