Lipstick can be a great accessory if applied correctly. Find out what mistakes many people make when using lipstick.
Lack of hydration of the lips
Many lipsticks today contain moisturizing ingredients, but the lips need extra hydration every day. You can buy lip balm at the store and apply it for a few minutes before makeup, then remove excess balm and start applying lipstick. If the skin on the lips is too dry, the balm should be applied regularly, at least once a day. It will help moisturize and nourish, as well as sharpen the outline.
Refusal of peeling
For the lipstick to lie flat, the lips must be perfectly smooth. A gentle lip exfoliation and a soft brush should be used. After exfoliation, a moisturizing balm is applied to the lips.
Incorrect lip liner shade
In the 90s, the lips were outlined with a dark pencil. Many women still use this technique. The lips look unnatural and vulgar. Choose a lip liner in natural flesh tones or pale pink to highlight the borders and visually add volume to the lips. It is recommended that you choose a shade that matches your lipstick. Better to choose the same brand of lipstick and pencil. To choose the right shade, you need to take lipstick with you to the store and select the required pencil tone for it.
Refusal to apply base coat on lips before lipstick
Many women do not apply a base coat, they immediately paint their lips with lipstick. The base will help the lipstick last longer. As a base layer, you can take a face cream or powder. If you don't feel like applying foundation, you can apply lipstick in several layers. Apply one layer, blot with a napkin, then another and also blot, the final layer needs to be powdered through a napkin, the lipstick will last longer and will not stay on the teeth.
Incorrect lipstick shade
Dark shades are not suitable for women with thin lips; they make the lips visually smaller. If your lips are large and plump, lighter nude lipstick tones will further enhance them. When choosing a lipstick, you should consider this information.
Gloss application
If you apply gloss to the entire surface of the lips, then they will appear slightly smaller due to the fact that the gloss will reflect light, and the lip contour will look blurry and indistinct. Makeup artists recommend applying only a drop of gloss to the middle of the lips, blending it thoroughly to make the lips look more seductive. Be fully armed to grab the attention of men!
