perfect pout!
Permanent lipstick is a cosmetic tattooing procedure that enhances the lips by implanting pigment into the skin, giving a long-lasting tint that mimics the look of lipstick or a natural flush of color. We specialize in lip blushing, a technique that creates a soft, blended effect rather than a harsh or solid line.
Using a digital machine with ultra-fine needles, we deposit pigment in layers for a natural-looking result. Unlike traditional tattoos, the pigments we use are designed to fade gradually over time, allowing for color adjustments as preferences change.
This procedure is perfect for enhancing lip symmetry, correcting pigmentation irregularities, and giving the appearance of fuller, more youthful lips. With modern advancements in technique and pigment formulation, lip tattooing now provides beautiful, natural results with minimal discomfort and downtime.

Permanent Lipstick
Smudge Proof 24/7

Achieving beautifully tinted lips without the hassle of daily reapplication is possible with permanent lipstick. This advanced technique enhances the natural color and shape of your lips, creating a polished look that eliminates the need for traditional lipstick. Whether you want a subtle, natural tint or a more defined, lipstick-like effect, the results are fully customizable to match your style.
We specialize in lip blushing, a soft, blended form of cosmetic lip tattooing that enhances lip color while maintaining a natural appearance. Using high-quality pigments and precision techniques, we can correct asymmetry, add definition, and create the illusion of fuller lips. The process starts with a consultation to choose the perfect shade that complements your skin tone and facial features. As the color heals, it settles into a beautiful, long-lasting finish that fades naturally over time.
This treatment is ideal for those looking to save time on their beauty routine while maintaining a fresh, effortless look. It’s especially beneficial for anyone with uneven pigmentation, fading lip color, or a desire for a more youthful, defined appearance. With expert application and careful customization, you can wake up every day with perfectly tinted lips that require little to no maintenance. If you’re in Houston and considering a long-lasting lip enhancement, we’re here to help you achieve the perfect shade.
Lip Blushing

Lip blushing is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattoo that enhances the natural color and shape of your lips. Using a digital machine and fine needles, pigment is gently implanted into the lips, creating a soft, blended tint. This technique can correct asymmetry, add definition, and create the illusion of fuller lips, giving you a naturally beautiful pout.
Lip Neutralization

This treatment cancels out dark melanin rich lips. Results are lighter and warmer lips with natural results. If you have dark lips and are trying to lighten them, please schedule a consultation. Please note that some clients may not be suitable for permanent makeup on the lips due to the natural undertones occurring in the skin.

Before Your Permanent Lipstick Appointment
LIPS:
- No lip injections/fillers in the past 6 weeks
- Drink plenty of water
- Bring your favorite lipstick and or lip liner with you (for color reference)
- If you are prone to cold sores/fever blisters you must get an antiviral prescription from your primary care physician. You must start taking this 2 days before the procedure. Please bring proof of your prescription the day of procedure. No exceptions.
- Please ensure your lips are well-moisturized and not excessively dry (peeling) before your appointment. If you are experiencing these issues, please contact us to reschedule your appointment.
After Your Permanent Lipstick Appointment
Healing varies based on the individual and the area treated. Following the aftercare instructions provided to you on the day of your appointment is essential for optimal healing.
During the first 10 days of healing after getting permanent makeup, it’s important to avoid the following:
- Touching the Area: Avoid touching the treated area with your hands to prevent infection.
- Picking or Scratching: Do not pick, scratch, or rub the scabs or flakes to avoid pigment loss and scarring.
- Water Exposure: Keep the area dry; avoid swimming, hot tubs, saunas, and long showers.
- Sweating: Minimize activities that cause heavy sweating, such as intense workouts, as sweat can interfere with healing.
- Makeup: Avoid applying makeup on or near the treated area to prevent contamination and irritation.
- Skincare Products: Refrain from using creams, lotions, exfoliants, or other skincare products on the treated area unless recommended by your artist.
- Sun Exposure: Protect the area from direct sunlight and avoid tanning beds, as UV rays can cause fading and irritation.
- Sleeping on the Face: Try not to sleep on your face to prevent rubbing and pressure on the treated area.
- Alcohol and Caffeine: Limit alcohol and caffeine consumption, as they can thin the blood and delay the healing process.
- Facial Treatments: Avoid facials, chemical peels, laser treatments, and other cosmetic procedures that could affect the treated area.
How long does the Permanent Lipstick procedure take?
The duration varies depending on the area being treated and the complexity of the design. Typically, a session can last anywhere from 1 to 3 hours.
How long does Permanent Lipstick last?
Permanent lipstick is a long-lasting cosmetic enhancement, with results typically lasting between one and three years—sometimes even longer. However, the pigment will gradually fade over time. To maintain vibrant color and a well-defined shape, touch-up appointments are recommended if the color becomes nearly nonexistent.
Several factors can influence how long your results last, including lifestyle choices such as sun exposure and smoking, as well as how diligently you follow aftercare instructions. It’s important to remember that everyone’s lips heal differently, so individual results may vary. Choosing a reputable artist, carefully following aftercare guidelines, and scheduling touch-ups as needed are all essential for maximizing the longevity of your enhanced lips.
Are touch-ups necessary?
Yes, touch-ups are often necessary for permanent lipstick. The initial application may not achieve the desired color intensity, so a touch-up helps fine-tune the pigment. Some areas may fade more quickly than others, and a touch-up ensures even color distribution. Adjustments may also be needed to perfect the shape and symmetry. Additionally, touch-ups help maintain the appearance over time, as all permanent makeup gradually fades. We recommend a touch-up within 6-8 weeks after the initial procedure, with maintenance touch-ups every 1-2 years depending on the individual’s skin type and lifestyle.
Permanent Lipstick Contradictions
Active Herpes Simplex Virus (Cold Sores): Increases the risk of outbreaks and complications during healing.
Recent Lip Fillers: A proper healing period of six weeks is required after lip injections.
Chronic Dry/Chapped Lips: Dry, chapped lips make it difficult to achieve smooth, even pigment application. This condition can lead to poor pigment retention, uneven results, increased irritation, prolonged healing, and a higher risk of infection.
Please note: If you arrive at your appointment with any of the above conditions, we reserve the right to refuse service, and your deposit will be forfeited.

Our Reviews
It's been a few years and my brows have held up really well! I got them touched up a while back, and also got my lips shaded. Getting my brows and lips shaded in has made a huge difference, and I'm not even a big makeup person. It is so nice to wakeup, throw on clothes and be able to walk out of the house looking polished without any effort. I get compliments on my brows all the time, even from other artist who microblade.
I've also sent probably 5 people to Kashia and everyone has been thrilled with the results. I'll never go anywhere else!
Original: Kashia did an incredible job on my brows! I wear very little makeup, but have thin brows and was tired of having to fill them in for Zoom meetings at work. My brows look totally natural, but fuller and she did a great job of keeping my natural shape (which is pretty arched) while cleaning it up just a bit.
I followed her instructions for after care and had no scabbing, no peeling and they took perfectly. I just had my touch up and I'm thrilled. She also did a great job on my mom, who had almost no eyebrows. I can't recommend her highly enough!
I'll definitely be back soon to get my lips shaded.
I have friends that have literally said to me, "My friend got their eyebrows done and they look good - yours look AMAZING!"
If you are considering permanent brows, or any other service that is offered at this spa, don't hesitate - go do it!
Kashia is absolutely amazing and an exceptional expert at what she does. I am sure I'll be going in for other services soon.
Kashia is truly a gem—honest, kind, patient, and exceptionally professional. Her establishment is impeccably clean, adding to the overall pleasant experience. If you need any kind of permanent makeup done or spa services, I wholeheartedly recommend Dermaluxe. It's the best place for it!
So look no further because this is your to go to for your permanent cosmetic and skin care!
Thank you Kashia once again for getting my eyebrows just right.
Thank you Kashia!!
She has great attention to detail and doesn’t assume clients’ preferences. For example, she asked me what look I wanted to achieve & paused after treating each brow with the laser to ask if I wanted them lighter before she went up on the laser intensity. This alludes to her attentiveness and care. Highly recommend her!
