 How To Apply Lipstick ( With Lip liner)

Exfoliate and Clean

First of all clean your lips and exfoliate them so that you get rid of all the dead skin and dirt that sits on the lips. By getting rid of dirt and filth, you prevent yourself from infections as well. Exfoliating can be done twice or thrice in a week.

Homemade Exfoliation Steps For Lips : 

• Mix some honey and sugar and blend them nicely, make sure the sugar crystals are intact.
• Now, rub the batter on lips with the help of a brush or by your finger for 5 -7 minutes.
• Wash it off and apply some lip balm.

Moisture Nicely

Next step after cleaning and exfoliation is moisturizing. You can apply some balm on the lips profusely. But do not, apply it too extensively. One thing that you should always remember is that you should always use a good quality and a hygienic balm.

Use Concealer as Base

Many beauty experts and makeup artists recommend applying some concealer before applying the lipstick. This helps in making the lip color smudge proof as well as sweat proof. It also allows the lipstick to stay longer.

Contouring with the Lip Liner

Always use a lip liner that is of the same color and in sync with the lip color that you are going to use. Do not use a lip liner darker than the color of the lipstick. Define the shape of the lips with the lip liner just like you would draw on your sheet. Make sure the process is neat.

Apply Some Lipstick

Fill in the color of the lipstick with the bullet or with the help of a lip filler or lipstick brush. Just keep on filling inside the lip liner and you are done. You can also brush off some compact to keep it intact.
