Lips

It’s often been said that girls with fully covered and luscious looking lips have a higher chance of winning an argument. Regardless of what foundation, blush and highlighter, you feel like rocking that day, it’s the lips that finish off a look.

Whether you’re going for a flawless glowing aesthetic or a seductive evening look, it all comes down to your choice of lip gloss, creamy lip liner, balm or lipstick.

Choosing the right shade of lipstick

Not necessarily. If you want your lipstick to stay true to colour it’s good to use a lip liner that is at least in the same shade family as your lipstick (i.e. a peach lip liner with a coral lipstick).

If you don’t want to splurge on lip liners but still want to use one to help with precision and definition, just purchase a lip liner that matches the natural colour of your lips.

Your ‘perfect red’ depends on your skin tone and undertones. If you have cool undertones, look for blue-based reds. If you’re more on the warmer side, opt for orange-based reds.

Keeping your lips moisturised and lining your lips with a lip liner will prevent lipsticks from feathering or bleeding. Blotting your lips will also help to stop feathering/bleeding.

Make sure you line and fill in your lips with a lip liner that matches the liquid lipstick you choose to use. Apply your liquid lipstick in thin layers and allow to dry before going in for a second layer if you choose.
