The Truth About Lip Embroidery: Colour, Healing & What No One Tells You
Soft, Natural, and Kiss-Proof—When Done Right
You’ve seen the results. The softly tinted lips. The effortless mornings. But behind every flawless pout is a set of questions most first-timers don’t ask out loud—Will it fade to orange? Will it scab badly? Will I look like I’ve overlined my lips forever?
Let’s clear the air.
At The Brow & Beauty Boutique, Lip Embroidery is customised, modern, and gentle. Here's what to expect when it’s done the right way.
Myth 1: “It’ll Look Too Dark at First”
Yes, your lips may look a little bolder immediately after the session—but that’s temporary. Over the next 5–10 days, the colour will soften by 30–50% into a beautifully tinted tone that mimics your natural lip blush.
You can choose:
Coral
Rose pink
Dusty mauve
Barely-there nude
All shades are carefully mixed based on your undertone and desired finish.

Myth 2: “The Healing Process Is Scary”
Not at all. Most clients experience:
Light flaking (like dry lips) for 2–3 days
Minimal swelling, often gone by the next morning
No scabbing if aftercare is followed properly
Our aftercare kit includes everything you need to stay comfortable and moisturised throughout the healing.
Myth 3: “Everyone Will Know I Got Something Done”
Wrong again. Our embroidery technique is built for subtlety. You’ll look like you’ve had really good sleep, hydration, and lip balm—not like you’ve had a procedure.
It’s ideal for:
Faded natural lip colour
Smokers’ lines
Uneven lip tones
Clients tired of constant reapplying
