What Are Ombre Lips?

Ombre Lips is a semi-permanent makeup technique that creates a soft gradient effect, blending from a lighter shade at the center to a slightly darker shade near the lip edges. Unlike traditional lip tattooing, which applies a solid color throughout, Ombre Lips enhance the natural shape and volume of the lips, making them look fuller and more defined.
