The texture is probably accentuating the problem with its sharp edge between lips and skin.

Let's hope one day SF support for layers will be improved so lip material can be applied as a mask. 

But this has been possible for a long time. Mankahoo's "Bella" has had this for years. A few others as well.

It can be added to any figure where the UV map of the lips is not detached and distorted or enlarged.

It works for Antonia.

Create a new group with the Grouping Tool ("NewHead" for example). Add the materials "skinFace" and "lips" to the new group. Then click "Assign Material" and give the material a name. I also named it "NewHead".

Then create a mask for the mouth, with a smooth transition to the rest of the face. Now copy the content of the old material "skinFace" to "NewHead" and create a layer for the mouth.

The new material overwrites the material "skinFace". So you don't have to delete it. At least that was the case in my test 5 minutes ago.
