Sorme Lips & Lipsticks
Try mixing different shades of lipstick because you might just discover a totally unqiue color that makes people stop & ask you for the name of that color! So even when you have bought the wrong shade, mixing it around can give the lipstick a new lease of life.
Color your lips fully with a lip liner before applying lipstick so that you will not be caught with the "border-lined" look.
Use a lip liner that is lighter or close to the lipstick color.
To
make lipstick stick longer to your lips, blot with a piece of tissue in
between coats of lip lining & lipstick. Then cover your lips with
an used side of the same tissue & brush a thin layer of loose
powder. Remove tissue & press lips together to set powder.
To
make thin lips look fuller, line outer lips with a darker shade of
lipstick or liner before filling it with a complementary color. Top it
off with lip gloss.
Matt lipstick tends to be cakey.
Lipsticks can be used as eye shadows too!
Many fashion & beauty magazine editors seem to agree that lip color
should not match nail color; it makes you look dated. What say you?
To
repair a broken lipstick, place the 2 ends together gently but firmly,
then cap the lipstick & put it in the freezer for 15-20 minutes.
Create
a signature shade by slicing or scraping off a portion of a lipstick
onto a metal spoon. Hold the spoon over a candle flame until it starts
to melt (do not let it boil) then add on another shade & let it
mix. Leave it to cool when done & store in a clean small container.
