Tips To Wear Lipstick Perfectly

Posted: Nov 11, 2009 |Comments: 0 |

The wrong color lipstick, heavy lip liner and lips that have been "drawn on" are common makeup mistakes that will ruin your overall look. Many women who are unsure of how to wear lipstick skip that step totally leaving makeup looking unbalanced.

Lipstick gives every woman the feeling of being just a little bit glamorous even if it is only for a moment. The question is, how to keep it on your lips rather than have it come off, particularly on your wedding day when you will be required to 'pucker up' many times throughout the day.

A right lipstick can give you the right look and can be according to the occasion. Never try a lipstick which looks good otherwise and not on you. Many people make the wrong choice which just makes loss of good money.Cream lipsticks are also on a roll as they have many different color and varieties which protects your lips, but may keep your lips dry which can be a problem. It is very important to apply lip gloss which can give that deadly look. Always look for products which contain some valuable ingredient to take care of your lips.


Lipsticks contain waxes like beeswax and carnabau wax to hold the shape. It would also contain vegetable oils for the moisturizing properties and ease of use. Vitamin E, aloe vera, squalane and other skin moisturizing, anti-aging ingredients might be added to it. Finally, there's the color. Natural vegetable dyes or artificial colors would be added to give the lipstick its coloring.

To prepare your lips, apply a little foundation or concealer, or invest in a good base specifically for lips, supplied by many of the cosmetic companies. Next, define your lips with lip liner. Try and use a natural looking colour, as it can be used just as easy with a gloss by itself or with pinky brown lipsticks and even reds.Then apply your lipstick - a lip brush can give you a more professional look but is not necessary. Blot your lips and apply another layer of lipstick.

The Seasons of the Year and Lipstick Colors

While red is an all-American classic, lighter colors like frosting-pink or "clear" lipstick colors are also options. Women often change their shade of lipstick color with the seasons. During spring months, light pinks tend to be favorite picks.As the weather turns more summery, so does a woman's lipstick color. It is a lipstick free-for-all! Colors are more exaggerated, intense, and fruity. Shiny, glossed lips are also fashionable, but never wear glossy lipstick to a photo shoot because it will appear as if you are not wearing any gloss at all.

To create that perfect pair of lips you should start by lining with a neutral colored pencil following your natural lip line. Using a lip brush fill in with lip color of your choice. Use your lip brush to blend the two so that there are no harsh edges.

The secret of creating the picture-perfect lips lies in the choice of color and correct application.

Like the hair on your scalp, eyelashes all grow and shed at different stages. In general, a human lash will shed approximately every two months.
