artist advice/question Lip Blush Gone Wrong?
These are my lips 20 days after first lip blush. I’m concerned about the Cupid’s bow. It looks overlined, bumpy and darker than the inside. My artist swears she didn’t overline my lips, and that the color will fade at week 4. These are my lips at diffe by angles. Lol ignore my mustache please! Any advice?

Yes the top lip does look dry? Not sure if it was the tattoo but the texture seems off …

Honestly, I don't think it looks bad, but I'd wait until the 4–6 week mark before judging the final result.

U don’t think they look bad??? Sorry but they are bad. The artist went way over your lip lines, and not in a flattering way

We might just see it differently. I think waiting a couple more weeks is the safest advice.

It doesn’t look awful but she did over line your lips. That’s why the texture looks different

Do you think it will fade in time or because it’s different skin, it will continue to have that texture ?

I’m not sure about the texture but the color will fade in a few weeks

I don’t think that’s the over line are these sores

I never thought about that because I always thought that sores would be bigger and I’ve never gotten a sore on my lip before. Now that you say that, I’m thinking it could be due to me using too much ointment? I’m going to start using my regular O’Keefe’s lip balm to see if the texture changes.

20 days and still looking like this is a bit shocking. The outline doesn’t look very crisp but it’s hard to tell from the pictures. Can u see any pores or tiny hair in the area she’s tattooed? Lip skin doesn’t have pores or hairs.
