Lipstick adds the final touch to any makeup application. Lining the lips creates subtle definition and perfects the shape of the lips.
Consider your lipstick color; you’ll do well with colors that match the natural shade of your lips, opting for darker tones that complement your overall coloring. Matte lipsticks offer a muted finish complementary to workday makeup, while satin and gloss finishes the appealing evening looks.
You should use the lip liner that is either neutral or matching to the color of the lipstick.
Always use a liner that is a shade or two darker than your lipstick, stick with the same tone. A dusting of powder or a bit of foundation beneath lipstick can maximize its staying power. Therefore you should apply a light coat of foundation or concealer on your lips. This will act as a base on your lips and also help even out the color of your lipstick.
Apply all other makeup before putting on lip liner and lipstick. Ensure your lips are nice and moist first, and that your pencil is sharp to get a good line.
Draw a thin line along the edge of your lips with a lip liner whose color is one shade darker than your lipstick. Start at the center of the upper lip and work outward. Hug the very outer edges to open up thin lips, and line well within the edges to downplay excessively full lips.
Apply lipstick from the tube or by using a small firm lipstick brush. Coat the lips evenly. Pay special attention to staying within the lips' edges.
Blot to remove any excess color and to even out the texture. Add any gloss for the perfect shine for going out. Remember to touch lips up after a meal, as lipstick easily transfers onto coffee cups, water bottles and soda cans.
