Have you ever wanted to wear a bright or bold coloured lipstick but couldn’t be bothered with the up-keep required to maintain the original vibrancy?
Problem solved! Follow these five simple steps for a perfect pout that will last all day.
You will need:
- a lip pencil – nude or a colour matching your chosen lipstick
- a lip brush
- lipstick
- 2 x tissues
Lipstick that lasts all day in 5 steps:
1. Pencil
Using a lip pencil lightly line and fill in the entire area of your lips. Carefully rub the applied pencil into the crevices of your lips, using your ring finger.
TIP: applying lip liner all over the lips provides an excellent base for the lipstick to adhere to.
2. Lipstick + Lip Brush
Take your lipstick and apply the first coat with a lip brush.
TIP: using a lip brush will give you a crisp lip line and help with the lasting power of your lip product.
3. Seal
Gently blot your lips with a tissue.
TIP: blotting removes excess oils and lock the colour into the lips.
4. Reapply + Blot
Apply a second coat of lipstick (with the lip brush or directly from the bullet) and blot again with a tissue.
5. Final Coat
Apply a third and final coat of lipstick and you’re good to go! Lipstick that lasts all day.
