Meet Kostas, the tattooed permanent makeup artist breaking stereotypes with his exceptional lip blushing technique. When he first appears on screen, covered in tattoos, you might not expect him to be the mastermind behind natural-looking, beautiful lip enhancements. But that unexpected contrast is exactly what makes his story so compelling.

Kostas shares his journey into the beauty industry, beginning when his wife Daria needed help with her booming business. His first attempt at lip blushing was a disaster – "I destroyed her lips completely," he admits candidly. Rather than giving up, this former athlete analyzed what went wrong and developed his own revolutionary technique that prioritizes gentle application and natural results.

What makes his approach special is the meticulous attention to detail, particularly the corners of the lips which many artists overlook. He creates a subtle gradient effect, with more color on the outside gradually fading inward, giving a natural 3D appearance. The procedure involves careful numbing, precise outlining of natural borders, and typically three gentle passes to avoid traumatizing the skin.

Beyond lip blushing, Kostas reveals his expertise in organ massage, a specialized technique he learned from Russian practitioners. This isn't just abdominal massage but targeted work on specific organs to remove stagnation and toxins. He claims to have improved his own liver health dramatically through this practice and notes the fascinating connection between organ health and emotional wellbeing.
