Get it right!
1. To start prep your lips because if your lips are dry and cracked this lipstick look will only accentuate that and it won’t look good. Exfoliate your lips by gently mixing some sugar or salt with Vaseline, rub in a circular motion to help remove any dry skin.
2. Use a damp cotton wool or wet wipes to clean your lips thoroughly and apply a small amount lip balm to help hydrate your lips and prep them for lipstick.

4. Next it’s a matter of preference to use lip liner or not. If you want a defined shape use a liner, if you want a more casual look skip it. Pro Tip: Liner is great to help correct and even out your lip shape. Choose a liner that is as close to the colour you are using so that it helps create a seamless look. After you apply a lip liner blend it out with a lipstick brush before applying lipstick so that the line is not too severe. For added staying power fill in the entire lip with liner.
5. Follow with lipstick applied with a lip brush, you will get better coverage and precision. For added staying power blot with a kleenex and then apply a second layer of lipstick.
Pro Tip: If you are worried about lipstick getting on your teeth a trick that models and celebrities use is to put one finger between your lips and pull it out, the excess lipstick will come off on your finger and not on your teeth.
