Even if your lipstick
smudges to the insides of your lips, wrap your finger with a tissue and
put it into your mouth, and twist it slowly to eliminate any extra
color.
You can also highlight your
lips by using a light film of eye shadow color coordinated with your lip
color in the center of the upper and lower lips.
-
If one
of your lips is larger than the other, balance the look by using the
lighter shade of the lipstick on the smaller-sized lip.
-
Don't
let your lipstick pass on to the utensils while dining by using your
tongue and lower teeth and avoiding them to come in contact with your
lips.
-
To
smoothen the lips a little before applying lip color, rub them a
little with washcloth gently.
-
Apply
foundation on and around lips and then define the look of your lips
using the lip liner.
-
If you
lips are naturally full and large, don't use the lip liner though you
can soften the edge using a Q-tip and avoid glossy and shiny lip
color.
-
If you
have thin lips, use light shades to make them appear fuller. Define
the lip using the neutral lip pencil from slightly beyond your natural
lip line and then apply lipstick covering up lip defining line.
Another trick is to apply white shadow on center of both lips over
lipstick very lightly and spread it gently.
-
If your
upper lip is too thin or does not have a good shape, outline it with the
lip liner similar to your lipstick and in the center portion, draw a
second line giving it the precise shape using a brown pencil. Apply
color including the brown line. This will make your lips look fuller.
- To hide lip lines,
apply lipstick vertically.
