Lip Makeup Tips


Attractive, beautiful lips make you appear younger at all ages. Well-tended lips are a princely gift and a perfect addition to your make up. There are some lip makeup tips as well as secrets of lips make up:

- Lipsticks can be glossy, matte, creamy or frost ones. Choose the one that is comfortable for you and do not desiccate your lips skin and lip makeup tips;

- Never use a lip liner of shadow tones if you strain after looking younger. Prefer a lip liner close to lipstick color to define the shape of lips;

- For long lasting lip color, you may also apply a first layer of foundation on lips, than a layer powder on them and then color them. This also helps lipstick not to change its color on dark lips;

- What about the stubborn lip makeup tips, you’d better apply two coats of lipstick for longer durability. After the first coat, sop the lips on a tissue paper and then apply the other coat. If you don’t like the tone after applying two coats, prefer more light lipstick;

- Outlining of the lips as a rule prevents lip discoloration;

- Lip-gloss can be applied over lipstick or used alone for a natural look. If you don’t need lipstick, don’t forget about lip-gloss or even though petroleum jelly cream to prevent cracks and xerochilia;

- Lip-gloss makes lips look fuller, so women with thicker lips should avoid using it;

- If you use a lip liner, you should stump it with stump until the line is not noticeable.

If you want your lips to look plump, first size up a situation carefully. Do you really need what you want to do? Remember, there lip makeup tips always seem to be a bit actorish, even it is made by a professional. The question at issue is that your face became disproportional. If you still would like to do it, apply a light shade of foundation with a layer of powder to smooth your lips color. Start with a lip liner in a color that closely matches your color of lipstick. Make the outline just outside your natural lip line. Don’t append a lot of space it usually looks unnatural, even unbeautiful. Then fill with lipstick and then blend.

If you think you need to make your lips slimmer, you need to start with applying a light shade of foundation followed by powder on your lips to remove the color from your lips. Remember, you need to make your lips practically imperceptible. Prefer a lip liner in a color that closely matches your color of the lipstick. Make the outline just inside your natural lip line. Don’t append a big setback it usually looks unnatural. Now fill with lipstick and then blend.

My favorite lipstick brands



MAC makes some of the greatest lipsticks around. I love the assortment of finishes available: AMPLIFIED CRÈME, CREMESHEEN, FROST, GLAZE, LUSTRE, MATTE and SATIN.
Most of my favorite MAC lipsticks have an Amplified Creme finish. I love that none of these finishes feel the least bit drying, I don't even notice much of a drying problem with Matte lipsticks like I have heard mentioned before with other brands. However, if you are one of those people who notice a lipstick feels dry, that can always be remedied with a thin coat of lip balm!
Favorite shades: Girl About Town (Amplified Creme), Port Red (Frost), Russian Red (Matte), See Sheer (Lustre), So Scarlet (Amplified Creme), Lollipop Loving (Glaze)


Poppy King is a genius, and definitely has earned herself the title of a "Lipstick Queen"! I love the formula of the Saint/Sinner lipsticks! I would gush about the glosses, but I'm trying to stick to the topic of lipstick in this entry.. I think it's awesome how each shade has a sheer/opaque twin. I love the pigmentation of the Sinner and Saint lipsticks! The Saint lipsticks are sheer, but definitely give enough color. "Saint Rose" has become a day and night color for me, it's so versatile! The colors are so rich and pigmented. I don't notice any drying at all with the Sinner lipsticks, and the Saint lipsticks are extremely moisturizing from what I have noticed during my regular use of the lipsticks. This brand definitely is up there with M.A.C! Whenever I don one of these shades, I feel like a queen. A "lipstick queen". If you haven't tried Lipstick Queen yet, I highly highly highly recommend it. This brand will always have my 'red kiss of approval'!
Favorite shades: Saint Rose, Medieval, Natural Sinner


I am in love with the Sheer Tint Lip Color! The lipsticks are scented with a yummy mix of caramel and vanilla. This is definitely the perfect lipstick for somebody who prefers a tube of gloss over a tube of lipstick. The color is sheer, but definitely leaves a touch of gorgeous color! The moisturizing properties of these lipsticks are out of this world. There are seven shades available, and you can mix two or more colors to create your own custom lip color. I like to mix "Alina" and "Vendela", it's a great daytime shade for me! I'm a fan of bold lip colors, but I consider "Vendela" (sheer rosy nude) as the perfect nude for me. That says a lot because I'm not really a 'nude lips' kind of girl! The packaging is a shiny silver case, and it locks close so you don't have to worry about the top falling off and smearing lipstick all over the inside of your purse! It's very time consuming to scrub red lipstick out of the inside of your purse...I should know, it's happened too many times! If you're looking for a super sheer, yummy smelling and moisturizing lip color, check "Becca Cosmetics" out!
Favorite shades: Vendela, Alina, Estella



These lipsticks are unbelieveable. The pigmentation is so rich and the lipstick just glides onto your lips with such ease! There are so many colors available to choose from, and the price is so affordable! Milani is perfect for somebody who doesn't want to sacrifice vanity in these rough economic times! It's hard to believe that this awesome brand can be found in the cosmetics aisle of your nearest drugstore [try Walgreens, CVS, or Rite Aid]!
