"Signature Lips" refers to a customized lip enhancement technique, or a range of lip products designed to create a unique and personalized lip look. The meaning varies depending on context:
1. Cosmetic Lip Enhancement Technique
This interpretation focuses on a lip augmentation method. Unlike the Russian lip technique which aims for a flat, wide look, the signature lip technique enhances your existing lip shape and volume. It aims for a fuller, more voluminous appearance tailored to the individual's features. [Reference: The signature lip enhances what you already have. Tailored to you, it can add definition & volume. This technique results in a plumper more volumised look to the lip compared to the Russian technique that keeps the lip flat.]
2. Branded Lip Products
Many cosmetic companies use "Signature Lip" to brand their lip products. These products can range from:
- Lipsticks: Such as Merit Beauty's Signature Lip, a hydrating, buildable lipstick with a soft satin finish. [Reference: MERIT's Signature Lip is a hydrating, buildable lipstick with a soft satin finish. It's so lightweight, you'll forget you're wearing it.]
- Lip Sets: Including various shades and accompanying products like lip pencils for shaping, as seen with Perma Blend's Signature Lip Set and Vasanti Cosmetics' Fro's Signature Nude Lip Kit.

- Sunscreen Lip Balms: Such as Sun Bum's Signature SPF 30 Sunscreen Lip Balm, focusing on sun protection. [Reference: Premium sunscreen lip balm specifically designed to offer the very best broad spectrum protection for those who work and play hard in the sun.]
3. Medical Context: Liquid Immune Profile Signature (LIPS)
In a distinct medical context, "LIPS" (Liquid Immune Profile Signature) is used as an acronym to describe a blood test used to predict how patients with metastatic cancer will respond to immunotherapy treatments. [References: ... signature (LIPS) to predict response of patients with metastatic cancer to ICI targeting the programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death...; Liquid immune profile-based signature (LIPS) predicts survival benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) treatment in all patients with metastatic cancer...] This is unrelated to cosmetic lip enhancements.
