Why Do My Lips Look Grey or Purplish Sometimes—And What Can Help?
If your lips sometimes take on a grey, purplish, or ashy tint—especially in photos or under certain lighting—you’re not alone. This kind of lip tone imbalance is more common than people realize, and it often leads to frustration. You might find yourself avoiding close-ups, applying lipstick to hide the discoloration, or simply wondering why your lips don’t feel like you anymore.
At The Brow & Beauty Boutique, we specialize in gentle, natural-looking solutions for lips that have shifted in tone—without requiring bold makeup or harsh treatments.
Why Are My Lips Turning Grey or Purple?
This discoloration can develop gradually due to factors like:
Hormonal pigmentation shifts
Sun exposure and lack of SPF
Smoking or excessive caffeine
Dehydration and dryness
Residual pigment from lip products
Genetics and melanin-related changes
These factors can leave lips looking cool-toned or grey around the edges, or even give a purplish hue that doesn’t match your skin. It’s subtle—but very real. And yes, it can be improved.
How We Gently Correct Unwanted Lip Tones
We offer three services that work together or individually to correct dark, grey, or purplish lips—depending on where you’re starting from and where you want to go:
Lip Colour Removal: Designed to lift deep-set pigmentation and bring your natural base forward. It’s ideal for lips that have become visibly grey, ashy, or uneven.
Lip Embroidery Enhancement: Recommended for lips that are darker, cooler-toned, or patchy. This treatment helps rebalance tone and soften the overall look.
Lip Blush: Once tone is corrected, this gives you a soft, healthy pink tint that doesn’t overpower—perfect for a natural finish.
