Your appointment
What happens on the day
We talk
A thorough consultation about the look you’re after, from barely-there to a soft rosy tint.
Your colour
Kate custom-blends a shade to suit your skin tone and natural lip colour.
Your shape
The lip line is mapped to balance your shape. You approve it before any tattooing begins.
The treatment
Numbing cream keeps you comfortable throughout, with a scalp massage to help you relax.
Going home
You leave with an aftercare kit. Swelling usually settles within a day or two.
Your touch-up
Four to six weeks later, a 1½-hour session perfects the colour. It’s included.

Lip questions
How should I prepare?
- Keep your lips smooth and hydrated with balm in the week before. Kate can’t treat dry, chapped or sunburnt lips.
- No lip filler or anti-wrinkle injections in the week before.
- If you take blood-thinning medication, vitamin E or fish oil, check with your doctor about pausing for 48 hours.
I get cold sores. Can I still have it?
Yes. Lip tattooing can trigger a cold sore, so talk to your pharmacist or GP a week or two before about an antiviral to take beforehand. Kate can’t treat you while a cold sore is active.
Will it hurt?
Your lips are numbed before and during the treatment. Most clients feel only mild discomfort at the start.
How long will it last?
Twelve to 24 months, depending on your skin, sun exposure and lifestyle. A colour refresh every 18 months keeps it looking fresh.
I smoke. Is that a problem?
Smoking in the first few days can cause discolouration and slow healing, so you’ll need to stop for at least three days afterwards.
