Lipstick Technique for Lovely Lips;
No
makeup look is complete without some lip color whether it's lipstick, lip gloss, or just a slick of lip
liner to balance heavy eye looks and give focus to the face when using more
neutral eye shades
However, while most of
us take time with our eyes, our lip color is often just dashed (and smudged) on
with the stub of a lipstick
Sometimes you don’t feel
that using just a lip gloss is enough for your lips enhancing. Sometimes you need to make the things a little bit
more stylish. But if you want to pay more attention to your lips, you have to
keep the eyes more nude and natural in order to keep the balance. Before we
move to the lips Technique I want to suggest you application for the lipstick
Simply follow these steps
for longer lasting lipstick
Step 1
Prepare your lips by using
warm water, a washcloth and a safe, grainy cleanser
Apply cleanser directly to
moist lips and rub off by using circular motions. This will help work most of the
dead, dry skin off, revealing smoother, plumper lips. Alternately use a damp,
soft toothbrush and lightly brush over lips to scrub away dull, dry skin cells.
Exfoliate your lips once or twice each week
Step 2
Apply a non-petroleum based moisturizer to exfoliated lips. (Skin can become addicted to a petroleum based moisturizer and eventually end up drier). Blot off excess moisturizer
Step 3
Apply a light colored concealer over lips to even out skin tone and give a good base.
Step 4
Using a freshly sharpened
(gets rid of any germs) lip pencil in a color of your choice, blend lip liner
over the lips with a finger, brush or cotton bud
Step 5
Apply long lasting lipstick
with a brush. Ensure you start from the center of the lips and extend to the
inner corners. Smile when applying your lip color. This stretches the lip and
allows you to coat the entire surface exposing every furrow to be filled in
with pigment
Step 6
Press 1 ply tissue (gives
finer coverage of powder) over lips then using a cotton pad, gently push loose
powder through tissue over lips to set color
Step 7
Using a lip brush apply the
final layer of lipstick then dab a small amount of shimmery or light-grabbing
gloss in the center of your bottom lip to highlight and plump up your pout in
an instant.
Tips: Experiment by using a light color in the middle and a darker color on
the edges of your lips. This gives an interesting effect
