How to apply lipstick

Lipstick is a very easy and posthaste way to alter your appearance. Applying lipstick with moisturizers and sun protection is one beneficial way to protect the lips from weather variates. Applying lipstick after drawing a nippy lip outline is an important key in the finishing touch since it helps to keep the color from bleeding. There are many colors present in the market like the light brown, raisin or brown reds, like blackberry and so on.

Always apply lipstick with a lipstick brush. Draw the outer line with the brush or with a lip pencil and then fill in the colour with a lipstick. A darker colour should be used to outline the lip' line and a lighter shade should be used to fill in. After application, place a tissue between the lips and press. This will remove the extra colour.

Apply lipstick from the tube or by using a firm, small lipstick brush. Lipstick will last on longer if the whole lip is filled in with lip liner before lipstick is applied. Use a bloomy sharpened lip pencil (lip liner) either in the same color as the lipstick or slightly darker color. Avoid colors which are more than one shade darker (or lighter).

Apply foundation or concealer to the tips of your lips to blur the edge. Use a lip liner to outline your lips just inside the lip line, then brush on a layer of matte lip color. Lip gloss is used to add extra shine after applying lipstick. It can be hued or colorless and you can use it alone or over lipstick. Apply only to the center of your lips since it tends to 'bleed' further the lip edges. Lip gloss is not prescribed for use on mature skins.

• Open your mouth wide and brush the color into the corners, so that there are no preliminary edges. Blot with a tissue paper.
