What Lip Blush Colour Will Suit Me? A Guide to Choosing Your Perfect Shade
One of the biggest questions clients ask before booking lip blush is: “What lip blush colour will suit me?”
Choosing your lip blush shade isn't simply about picking your favourite lipstick colour. Your natural lip colour, skin tone, undertone and desired result all play a part in creating a shade that looks flattering once healed.
If you're considering lip blush in Portsmouth, here's what you need to know.
How Is Your Lip Blush Colour Chosen?
Your lip blush colour should be personalised to you.
During your consultation, your PMU artist will consider factors including:
Your natural lip colour
Your skin tone
Your skin's undertone
Any existing pigmentation
The result you're hoping to achieve
Whether you want a subtle or more noticeable enhancement
This means two people can choose the same pigment but achieve slightly different healed results.
What Lip Blush Colours Suit Different Skin Tones?
While everyone's colouring is different, your skin tone and undertone can help guide your shade selection.
Fair Skin
Soft pink, rose and peach-inspired shades can complement fair complexions beautifully. The aim is often to enhance your natural lip colour rather than overpower it.
Medium Skin
Medium skin tones can work well with a wide range of pink, rose, peach and nude-inspired shades.
Deeper Skin Tones
Richer pink, berry and warmer tones can create a beautiful result on deeper complexions. Your natural lip pigmentation is particularly important when choosing a suitable colour.
However, skin tone alone doesn't determine your perfect lip blush shade.
What About Your Natural Lip Colour?
Your natural lip pigmentation is one of the most important factors to consider.
Lip blush isn't like applying lipstick to a blank canvas. Your existing lip colour can influence how the pigment appears once healed.
That's why an experienced PMU artist should assess your lips before deciding on your final shade.
Do You Have to Choose a Bright Lip Colour?
Not at all.
Lip blush can be incredibly subtle.
If your goal is simply to make your lips look healthier, more even and naturally defined, a soft shade can enhance your lips without looking like you've applied lipstick.
You can also discuss a stronger colour if you prefer a more noticeable result.
Can I Bring a Lipstick Colour I Like?
Absolutely.
If there's a lipstick, lip liner or particular shade you love, bring it to your consultation. It can help your artist understand the type of colour you're drawn to.
Your artist can then consider how that preference can translate into a suitable lip blush shade for your natural colouring.
