7. What is Your Lip Size?
Small lips should wear lighter shades and a little glossy to make them look fuller.
8. Texture?
Do you prefer matte, cream or sheer?
9. Lip Liner
Lip liner should be applied after applying the lipstick first so as not create a ring after lipstick wears off. However, lip liner is no longer a must these days.
