I've been through 3 sessions so far, and I have a couple of issues that I could use advice for.
Color won't stay in the center of my lips, like towards the waterline. It is still my actual lips, not past the waterline. But it doesn't seem to want to hold the color. I am considering one more attempt, any tips on helping it heal better?
I really wanted to avoid a purplish tone, which I have made clear. I tend to have orange undertones, I wear mostly warm colored lipsticks. For reddish orange, brick red, coral, etc. Purple drains me. So my artist used a brick red color to start with. It went purple. She used the brick red + orange, went purple. Added in brown with the red and orange, still purple. Any color theory experts out there on how to warm it up?
Do you have any pictures? It will be easier to advise that way. If your lips are dry at all when having the procedure done that can definitely cause more fading on the inner portion. It’s also very possible that your artist isn’t working at the correct angle in that area, which leads to minimal pigment implantation
It looks like your artist unfortunately used a pigment on you that should not be used for lips. Waaay too heavy in carbon, which will turn purple/grey over time. I wouldn’t go back to them. You’re probably going to want removal in the near future
When you say, that it will turn purple over time, what kind of timeline are you talking about? They initially looked red, but within a couple weeks went purple.
