💋 Your confidence deserves to last longer than your lipstick.
💖 Wake Up With Naturally Beautiful Lips — Every Single Day
Tired of reapplying lipstick, worrying about smudging, or feeling like your lips have lost their colour and shape?
At Nixie Permanent Cosmetics, I create soft, natural-looking lips that restore definition, warmth, and confidence — tailored perfectly to you.
Whether you want a subtle hint of tint or a more polished finish, my Lip Blush and Lip Sheer treatments are designed to enhance your natural beauty, not mask it.
🌸 Three Treatments. One Goal: Confidence.
1️⃣ Lip Sheer — The Subtle “No Makeup” Enhancement
A whisper of colour that enhances what you already have.
Think of it as your favourite tinted balm — long-lasting, smudge-proof, and effortlessly natural.
Perfect for:
- Minimalists or first-timers wanting the most subtle result
- Mature clients seeking soft rejuvenation
- Professionals who prefer understated beauty
- Active women who want to look fresh-faced at all times
Results:
✓ Soft, healthy-looking colour
✓ Evens out tone without looking “done”
✓ Natural finish that feels effortless
💷 £325 — includes your top-up 8–10 weeks later
2️⃣ Lip Blush — Confidently Beautiful, Every Day
A semi-permanent lip tattoo that enhances shape, colour, and fullness with soft, blended pigment.
The result? Naturally defined lips that look like you’ve applied the perfect stain — all day, every day.
Perfect for:
- Pale, uneven, or cool-toned lips
- Clients wanting to replace daily lipstick
- Brides, professionals, and busy mums
- Anyone ready to invest in confidence that lasts
Results:
✓ Perfectly tinted lips 24/7
✓ Natural fullness without filler
✓ Smudge-proof, kiss-proof, photo-ready lips
💷 £350 — includes your top-up 8–10 weeks later
3️⃣ Ombre Lip Blush — For Extra Definition & Dimension
Want a little more drama? Ombre Lip Blush uses a gradient technique — slightly deeper at the border, fading lighter to the centre — for a fuller, sculpted effect that mimics professionally applied lipstick.
Perfect for:
- Clients wanting added structure & volume
- Pale or aging lips needing border definition
- Makeup lovers who prefer a polished, camera-ready look
Results:
✓ Fuller, plumper appearance
✓ Defined shape without harsh lines
✓ Long-lasting, elegant dimension

💡 Common Questions (Answered Honestly)
Does it hurt?
Most clients say it feels like light pressure or tickle. With professional numbing, you’ll be comfortable — many clients even nap during the procedure.

No. Colour intensity fades beautifully during healing, revealing soft, natural tones.
Can I still wear lipstick?
Absolutely — Lip Blush and Lip Sheer create a perfect base. Add gloss or lipstick whenever you want extra pop.

Frequently asked questions
Where are you located?
My clinic is in Retford, 108 Carolgate, DN22 6AS 📍
How long does it last?
If applied by a highly skilled PMU Artist, & your lip sare properly cared for, Lip Blush can last in excess of 2 years.
When will I need a top up?
I recommend a top up between 10-18 months, but Lip Blush can last for in excess of 2 years.
How much does it cost?
In the UK, Lip Blush prices range from approx £200 - £450. This depends on your location & other factors such as the Artisits overheads, level of skill & more.
The total cost for Lip Blush treatment with Emily at Nixie Permanent Cosmetics is £295.
I offer split payments for my clients, whereby you pay either £25 or £50 deposit depending on which service you've chosen, you pay £125 - £195 on your Application appointment, & you pay £50 on your Top Up. I offer this service for convenience & ease.
How many appointments will I need?
The process is split over 3 appointments for your complete lip transformation, & over 2 appointments for your top up.
How long does it take?
I usually allow 30 mins for your Consultation, 2-3 hrs for your Application & 1-2 hrs for your Top Up.
If you're having a full lip transformation (3 appointments), you will need to book in 6-8 weeks from your Application for your Top Up.
What happens at my Consultation?
Your first appointment will be your Consultation. I usually allow in the region of 30 mins for this appointment. Your Consultation is your time to ask questions, tell me your desired finished result & to receive a patch test. Your Consultation is completely free. If you wish to proceed with booking an appointment, I'd take a deposit of either £25 or £50 depending on the application you're booking for.
What happens at my Application appointment?
Your second appointment will be your Application. I usually allow 2-3 hrs for a full transformation, or 1-2 hrs for a touch up. We would discuss this at your Consultation, so you can plan your time out. Your application consists of completing consent forms, mapping out your new brows or lips, choosing your desired colour & the application itself. You will also receive your complimentary aftercare pack, & we will thoroughly discuss your responsibilities for aftercare, so you get the best results from your treatment. We would use your deposit to reduce the cost of this appointment. We would have already discussed your cost breakdown at your consultation. For full services, the cost for this appointment would either be £175 or £195 depending on your application type. For top up services, this appointment would be £125 or £175 if the initial application was done by me. If your initial application was done by another artist, the price would vary, please reach out to me for your bespoke price.
What happens at my Top Up appointment?
Your third appointment will be your Top Up. I usually allow 1-2 hrs for this appointment. Your Top Up will take place 6-8 weeks after your initial Application. This is to ensure the area has healed fully. Your Top Up consists of discussing the healed results & touching up any areas in which we feel require it. This appointment will cost £50.
How do I best care for my new lips?
By following the aftercare instructions that I provide to you on your Application appointment. Aftercare is so important & will be the make or break of your new lip tattoo. Your body needs time to heal, without proper healing, your results won't be as good (been there, done that!)
Can I bring someone with me to my appointment?
You're welcome to bring a companion to your Consultation appointment, but unfortunately, you must attend your permanent make up appointment alone. Also, due to insurance reasons, under 18's are not permitted in my clinic at any time.
