general description
Watercolor lip tattooing attracts young girls. This technique of applying a permanent under the skin is also called contourless, because the essence of the method is to use light shades for tattooing and carefully blend the pigment. A clear contour around the lips is not drawn. Therefore, most people do not even know that the girl has done a tattoo.

Who is the makeup for?
Tattooing in watercolor technique looks natural and attractive, therefore, it suits most of the fair sex.
- Girls with light lips. If you choose a pigment 1-2 shades darker than the natural tone of the lips, they will look much brighter and sexier.
- Women over 45. This procedure helps to mask expression lines and slightly lift the corners of the lips. Thanks to this, the image as a whole looks brighter and more beautiful.
- Girls with asymmetrical lips. If the lips are naturally not very smooth, they can be corrected with the right pigment.
It is not recommended to do such permanent makeup for girls with too thin lips. In most cases, this procedure is not helpful.

It is best to choose the most suitable color for yourself together with the master who will carry out the procedure.
Preparation
A girl should start preparing for a tattoo in advance. First you need to decide when the procedure will be carried out. To do this, you need to sign up for a consultation with a beautician. There it will also be possible to determine what the future lip color will be. When choosing a suitable date, one should take into account the fact that the skin after tattooing is restored within two weeks.
In the future, the girl prepares for the procedure on her own. In a week, you need to start scrubbing the skin of the lips. To do this, you can use both purchased products and homemade products. This must be done carefully so as not to damage the delicate skin. Lips should also be regularly moisturized with any hygienic lipstick or balm.

A few days before the procedure, it is also important to stop drinking coffee, tea and alcohol. Do not take blood thinning medications. Otherwise, the pigment will less penetrate under the skin. In addition, the lips will bleed more during the procedure.
To eliminate the risk of herpes, it is also recommended to drink a course of high-quality antiviral drugs a week before the procedure.It is best to select the appropriate drug together with a beautician.

Technique of the procedure
Lip tattooing is always done under sterile conditions. This eliminates the risk of contracting infectious diseases. The procedure consists of several main stages.
- Purification. To begin with, rub the lips with an antiseptic, and also use a scrub to remove keratinized skin particles.
- Anesthesia. Since tattooing is a rather painful procedure, the master uses anesthetics before performing it. Thanks to this, the client does not feel pain, but a slight tingling sensation during the introduction of the permanent under the skin. Since the pain threshold is different for everyone, anesthetics must be selected individually.
- Pigment injection under the skin. After the pain reliever has worked, you can start the procedure. This is the part that takes the most time.
- Lip treatment. After the end of the session, the skin must be treated with an antiseptic, as well as a special solution that accelerates the regeneration process.
The whole procedure lasts on average from one and a half to two hours.

Healing and care
After tattooing, the lips heal for a long time. Visible lesions usually disappear within 10–12 days. Therefore, if the lips in the first week after tattooing seem pale and ugly, you should not be upset. Over time, the skin will heal and the pigment will become brighter.
Separately, it should be noted that a crust appears on the lips during the healing process. In no case should it be ripped off. She will disappear by herself in a couple of days. If you injure your skin at this stage, you can spoil the result.
At this time, the lips can be treated with special healing agents. A cold compress can help relieve swelling. It is not recommended to use hydrogen peroxide or products containing alcohol at this stage. This can lead to dry skin and irritation even more noticeable.
Some girls have small bubbles on their lips 3-5 days after the session. Also, do not touch them with your hands or try to open them. However, if you take antiviral drugs in advance, this problem can be avoided.

How long does the tattoo last?
Tattooing in watercolor technique lasts quite a long time. To make the lips always look spectacular, experts recommend regular correction.
For the first time, you will have to contact the master in 2-3 months. At this stage, the specialist can correct some minor imperfections or make the color brighter. After such a correction, the lips look perfect.
In the future, the correction will need to be carried out every six months. If done correctly, the tattoo will last for two years. How long the color on the lips will last depends on several parameters at once.
- The quality of the dye. For this reason, you should not skimp on the procedure. Cheap pigment won't last long on your skin. Therefore, it is much more profitable to pay more and be sure that the result will be visible even after a few months. It is recommended to sign up for the procedure to a trusted master with a large number of positive reviews.
- Age. In young girls, the skin is renewed much faster. Therefore, the pigment on the lips does not last very long. Older women can count on permanent makeup to look beautiful even 2-3 years after the procedure.
- External factors. The brightness of the color is also influenced by how much time a girl spends in the sun. In addition, regular lip scrubbing and peeling contributes to the fading of the pigment.

If the tattoo gets bored over time, it can be completely blocked or removed. There are now two methods for removing pigment. It can be removed using a neodymium laser. The procedure is painless. The laser beam gently affects the pigment. This does not damage the skin. The big disadvantage of such a procedure is its long-term nature. To completely remove the pigment, 3-4 procedures are required.You need to go to them once every two months.
A remover can also be used to remove pigment. The process of lip cleansing in this case takes less time, but the procedure is much more expensive. But it only lasts 1-2 hours. The process of removing pigment with a remover is not much different from the tattoo itself.
It is important to give your lips proper care after the procedure. In this case, the skin will quickly recover.

Are there any contraindications?
Like any other cosmetic procedures, tattooing in watercolor technique has its own contraindications. Girls and women with diabetes mellitus, mental disorders, epilepsy and cancer cannot sign up for the procedure. You can not do tattoo and pregnant women. It is not recommended to sign up for a session and people who have suffered some kind of complex illness, because at this time their immunity is weakened.
The procedure should be postponed for women who have herpes, small cracks or wounds on their lips. Before tattooing, you need to wait for complete healing. Otherwise, there may be problems with the blending of the pigment. This will make the color uneven. It is not recommended to do lip tattooing during menstruation. At this time, the female body is also weakened, so the procedure should be postponed to the middle of the cycle.
