I've recently been complaining about the dullness of my lips; I literally don't go out without lipstick. I've become obsessed with permanent lip coloring, but my mom is definitely against it. She says, "You look better naturally," and "If you regret it, it’s hard to go back." If there are any people who have gotten this done, can I get your comments? Will it really satisfy me or will I regret it later?
I got it done, and I regretted it at first because the color was so intense for the first month, but once it settled, it became really nice. Now I don't have to worry about putting on lipstick; I can say that even in the morning, without makeup, I look like a decent human being. But the main issue is to really get it done at a professional place.
So, why did your mom object so much? Has something like this happened before? Or did she insist on you being completely natural? Sometimes, people even question their own desires after such reactions 🙂
In this procedure, the quality of the pigment material and the experience of the person performing it are crucial. Aftercare is also very important; if done incorrectly, there is a risk of infection. Additionally, if the color does not settle properly afterward, retouching may be necessary. You also need to consider your own skin type.
Yes, my mom wants me to be natural; she’s even uncomfortable with me wearing makeup. But I’m tired of going through so much effort every day, I want to relax a little. I didn’t know about the touch-up part, it’s starting to make me think, to be honest.
Think about this too: Maybe the pale appearance of your lips is completely psychological. You've written that you feel obliged to wear lipstick every day, maybe you need to question that feeling a bit. Are they really pale, or are you putting yourself in this state?
I think your mother's pressure to "be natural" is an example of women constantly being obstructed in their decisions regarding their own bodies. If you want this for yourself, do you have to act according to her opinion? Your body, your decision.
