1

Exfoliate Your Lips

Exfoliate Your Lips Before you apply your lip color, exfoliate to remove any dead skin cells. With smoother and softer lips you will be able to make sure your color stays bright and bold for much longer. Look for exfoliating lip scrubs for that perfect pout.

2

Moisten Your Lips

Moisten Your Lips Lipstick on dry lips is a big no. You’ll be able to see all the cracks and creases framing your smile, ruining your polished look. Choose a lipstick which has added moisturizer or go for a tinted lip balm. The more matte the lippy, the more likely it is to crack and dry your lips.

3

Use a Base Coat

Use a Base Coat A trick to make your lipstick last longer is to coat your lips with a little concealer, foundation or a lipstick primer first. This gives something for your lipstick to “hold on to”.

4

Think Sun Protection

Think Sun Protection When you are choosing your lipstick find one that has SPF in it if you are heading out in the sun. Burnt lips can be seriously painful. The Skin Cancer Foundation reported that opaque lippies protect your lips much better than glosses, but always opt for one that has SPF within it to be sure.

5

Line Your Lips

Line Your Lips There are two problems that can cause embarrassment when it comes to lipstick: one is having it on your teeth; the other is having it smudged across your face. Line your lips with a similar color to keep the color contained to avoid smudging. Your lips will also look fuller too, improving your pout. To get this look perfect apply thin and steady lines around your lips then fill the color in afterwards.

Famous Quotes

To give oneself earnestly to the duties due to men, and, while respecting spiritual beings, to keep aloof from them, may be called wisdom.

Confucius

Use a Brush

Use a Brush For the best results when applying your lippy use a brush. You’ll see that all the make-up artists employ this method because it gives more control over where the color goes. Lip brushes come in all shapes and sizes, but for precision the best ones are the thin ones with a slant.

7

Blot Your Lips

Blot Your Lips This is a trick that most of us girls learned from the movies, but the truth is that it actually works. Blot your lips with a paper towel to remove any excess color so that there is less of a chance of it finding its way onto your teeth (a big no!). Dulling the color a little with blotting will also give you a more natural finish.

8

Take It off the Right Way

Take It off the Right Way Don’t be tempted to rub off with tissue; you’ll only dry out your lips. Use petroleum jelly to moisturize the skin on your lips and remove the color pigment. There are also a number of beauty product companies who provide lotions for getting your lipstick off the right way.

Remember - Lipstick Has an Expiry Date

Remember - Lipstick Has an Expiry Date One of the key rules of lipstick is not to use an expired one. Coating your lips with something that has gone off isn’t going to do you any good. I mean you wouldn’t eat something that has expired would you? If your lipstick is old, then treat yourself to a new one. If your lippy has gone grainy, or flaky, it is seriously time for a replacement.

You lips need your attention when putting on makeup. Your lipsticked lips frame your gorgeous smile. Should they therefore be FAB-U-LOUS every time?

Whats the color number 7?

Wtf is "lippy" she uses it a couple times and one time she used it right after "lipstick" so if it's supposed to mean lipstick then the writer needs to remain consistent and either call it lipstick or lippy.
