FAQ: How To Apply Lipstick

What do you put on lips before applying lipstick?

The lip balm will soften your lips and make them smooth enough for applying lipstick. Choose a waxy, non-oily balms to avoid leaving an oily film on your lips. You can, however, wipe off the lip balm before you putt on the lipstick if necessary.

How do you make lipstick look natural?

If you want to make your lipstick look truly natural, choose a colour that closely resembles your natural lip tone and apply it like a stain. Dab it on using your ring finger, concentrate on the center and blend it out to the edges with no sharp lines.

How do I know my lip shape?

Examine yourself in the mirror. You have a rich, deep lower lip shape if your bottom lip looks larger than your upper lip. Don’t worry, emphasizing your upper lip is simple.
