Get those come hither lips with good old lipstick
- Firstly, get those lips ready to kiss by using your toothbrush! Put some vaseline or pawpaw ointment on your lips and buff away with a toothbrush (use a old one if you have it)
- Now that their smooth as velvet, purecosmetictips.com suggest putting foundation over your lips as a base. It will bring out the colour of your lipstick better and help it stay all day!
- Use a lipliner in a similar colour and trace the outline of your lips. You can go a bit over your natural shape to make them bigger, but please don't go too crazy or you could look like a drag queen, unless that's the look your going for of course!
- A great tip is to fill your lips with your lip liner, making it stay longer and deepening the colour.
- Now you can either use the lipstick or a brush to apply on your lips. A brush works best for me because I feel i have more control, but it's up to what you feel more comfortable with.
- Blot with a tissue to pick up oils. This'll help the colour stay for longer too!
Michelle Phan has a amazing video about how to choose a red lipstick that will suit your skin tone, it's worth if you love red lips.
Good luck!
