Lip embroidery isn’t just about bright red lips anymore. These days, it gives you a soft pink tint or that pretty Korean gradient look — darker inside, lighter outside.
It’s perfect if you love having some colour on your lips without reapplying lipstick all day. Plus, it saves time in the mornings! If the idea of waking up with naturally rosy lips sounds amazing, keep reading — we’ll share what to expect, how to care for it, and where to try lip embroidery in Singapore.
What Is Lip Embroidery?

This treatment uses an ultra-fine tattoo gun to deposit colour pigments onto the lips, which both enhances the lips’ colour and further defines the pout.
Similar to eyebrow embroidery, lip embroidery lets you wear the colours for about one to two years with the proper care, as the deposited shades will fade over time. Usually, organic pigments last for about one-and-a-half years, whereas inorganic pigments can stay on the skin for up to two years.

Should you desire to keep the colours looking vibrant for longer, you can go for touch-up appointments too; otherwise, you can expect the shades to age gracefully until it returns to the natural colour of your lips.
Lip embroidery, lip blush, lip microblading, and lip micropigmentation are all the same thing – semi-permanent tattoos for the lips. However, they’re different from traditional lip tattoo procedures, which offer a permanent solution to a pale or hyperpigmented pout.
Traditional lip tattoos use thicker needles and carbon-rich tattoo ink to deposit dyes deeper into the skin. Lip embroidery, on the other hand, uses super fine nanoneedles to deposit micro-pigments into the superficial dermal layer of the skin, which causes less trauma to the lips too.
Where to Go For Lip Embroidery in Singapore
Monostudio 5/5 stars on Google!
Monostudio, conveniently located at Boat Quay, offers micro-needling services such as facial treatments, eyeliner embroidery, and, yes, lip embroidery.
An expert in Korean semi-permanent makeup and skincare, Monostudio’s esthetician was trained in Seoul under Ashley (@fromj_brow), who has conducted lessons in not just Korea, but Taiwan and Hong Kong too.
Since the studio is always on top of the latest K-beauty trends, it’s no wonder that it’s best loved for its Korean Lip Blush, which creates a soft, natural lip look similar to K-style gradient lips.
Monostudio’s Lip Blush creates darker rosy pigments at the inner areas of the lips and then lets the colour naturally fade towards the outer parts of the pout.
Since a Korean gradient lip can be tricky to nail each morning, this lip embroidery service is ideal for flaunting an effortlessly soft pout – with no need to fumble about with your lippies throughout the day too!
The Lip Blush is priced at S$570, including a touch-up session one month later at the time of writing. While the studio promises that the lip embroidery results are most accurate one month after the touch-up treatment, you’ll get to see rosier lips immediately after your first session.
Monostudio announces the opening of its reservation slots each month – follow the studio on Instagram or Facebook to stay up to date.
Dazxle Makeup 5/5 stars on Google!
Wake up to naturally rosy, youthful lips with lip blush embroidery at Dazxle Makeup Studio. This semi-permanent treatment gently enhances your natural lip colour, softening dark tones and creating a delicate nude-pink gradient for a fresh, youthful look.

Does Lip Embroidery Hurt?
Photo source: Tina Yong/YouTube
The thought of having a needle penetrate the lips might seem way more terrifying than, say, an eyebrow embroidery procedure. However, when done properly, the process shouldn’t hurt.
The esthetician will apply a numbing cream to the lip and leave it on for about five to ten minutes before beginning the embroidery. You should feel pressure but no pain when the needle is pressed onto your skin.
What Happens During Lip Embroidery?

A lip embroidery appointment should begin with a consultation, where the esthetician will show you the various shades available, as well as advise you on certain colours based on how well they complement your skin undertones and whether they’re visible over your natural lip tone.
During the consultation, feel free to show photos of your desired lip colour to the esthetician, whether it’s a light pastel pink or a deeper rosy red.
The esthetician will consider your colour choices when advising you on a suitable shade for your lips. You should agree to the final chosen colour before proceeding with the next steps.
Photo source: Tina Yong/YouTube
The esthetician will apply the numbing cream to your lips and cover them with a plastic film, leaving the cream to sit for about five to ten minutes.
Then, they’ll mark out the shape of your lips using a vibrant lip liner, as well as create extra contrast between the lips and the skin by colouring the surrounding skin white. This allows the esthetician to accurately trace the shape of the lips using the embroidery needle, later in the process.
Photo source: Tina Yong/YouTube
The esthetician typically has to perform the embroidery in about two to three layers on the lips to reach the desired shade.
Should your lips be hyperpigmented or have more dark areas, the esthetician might do the embroidery in two sessions; the first will be to even out your skin’s natural shade, and the second will be to fill your pout in with the colour of your choice.
What Can I Expect After Lip Embroidery?
Photo source: Tina Yong/YouTube
After the embroidery session, you can expect your lips to feel swollen and tender, especially in the first one to two days.
In the days that follow, don’t be surprised to find your lips scabbing, peeling, and feeling dry too, as it’s a normal part of the recovery process.
Your lips should be fully healed at the end of two weeks, which means no more scabbing or peeling, but a rosier and fuller-looking pout.
For best results, follow your esthetician’s aftercare tips.
Typically, you should refrain from peeling the scabs or dry skin from your lips, as well as try not to pucker or stretch your lips in the first two weeks.
Don’t take spicy foods or apply lip products that could irritate your still-healing skin, and even avoid doing physical activities that’ll cause you to sweat. Be gentle to your lips during the recovery period, and you’ll be able to enjoy a rosy lip blush soon after!
