How to apply lipstick properly:


Step 1 ; Exfoliate and moisturize your lips

When you exfoliate your face don't forget to pay attention to the lips. Exfoliate them gently using a toothbrush and a mild exfoliator. Apply a lip balm daily to keep your lips hydrated and soft. Instead of a lip balm you can use petroleum jelly or honey.


Step 2 ; Outline your lips with a lip liner

Always apply lip liner prior to applying the lipstick. Outlining the lips with a lip pencil helps to keep the color from bleeding. The lip pencil allows your lipstick or lip gloss to last longer by creating a base for your lipstick.

When drawing the lip line you give more definition to your lips and if you use the lip liner properly you can make your lips look bigger and fuller. Use a lip pencil a shade darker than your lipstick color.

Start drawing at the centre of your upper lip and slowly move to the centre of the bottom lip. Don't forget to line the corners of your mouth.

Step 3 ; Put on some foundation or powder

Applying a dusting of powder or a bit of foundation to the lips helps maximize the lipsticks staying power. The foundation or the powder should be the same shade that you are using for your face. Applying a bit of foundation to your lips creates a perfect base for the lipstick and emphasizes its color.

Step 4 ; Apply the lipstick

You can apply lipstick using a lipstick brush or straight from the tube. The lipstick brushes are small, flat brushes.. they can be used for outlining the lips as well as applying the color for a longer lasting lipstick color. I personally think that a lipstick should always be applied with a brush.. the brush maximize the lipsticks staying powder and provides an even application.

Run the brush on the lipstick from side to side so that it has enough lipstick on it. Always start the lipstick application at the centre of your lips. Open your mouth slightly and brush on color starting from the centre of your lips to the corners. Always apply the lipstick to the upper lip first, using as little lipstick as possible with a firm and even strokes.

Step 5 ; Blot your lips

Always remove the excess color from your lips. Blot your lips with a tissue to absorb the excess color and apply a second layer of the lipstick.

Step 6 ; Add lip shine

If you want to add shine to your lips use a lip gloss. Apply it on to the centre of your lips and spread it out to make your lips fuller.


Useful Beauty Tips:

  • The right lipstick can look fantastic on cheeks ? Yes, you can use your lipstick as blush, but don't apply it straight from the bullet. Dab it only lightly with your finger, and blend until you achieve a natural color.
  • If your lips are thin, commit drawing your lips with a lip pencil close to your lip color and fill in with lipstick or lip-gloss. Use light shades to make them appear fuller. Using only a lip gloss will also give the illusion of fuller lips.
  • If your lips are too full, blot the entire lip out using a concealer and redraw just within the line with a darker tone of lipstick or lip-gloss.
  • Use two different lipstick, one for the day and one for the evening. During the day wear a light shade and for the evening apply one with saturated shade reds, bronzes, browns and corals. when wearing a strong lipstick colors, keep cheeks and eyes neutral, choose pale pinks, beiges, browns and plums. This will complement the lips without drawing attention away from them for a truly fabulous look.
