Outlining – Outlining your lips will keep the color from running. When finding your signature color , be ensured to look for a lip liner in a matching or ( close to it) shade.

Lipstick- Apply your lipstick generously and carefully. For extra control – use lip brush or just put the color just in the center of your lips and spread it using a brush. Fill in the lips well to make the lipstick last longer and stay in place. With light hand the color will show lighter, with firm hand the color will get darker. It is always advised to brush while applying lipstick, instead of applying lip color straight to your lips for better and professional results. Move the brush vertically along lines of your lips to avoid the build ups in the lines to get a more even look. The small brush is good for corners, and the big brush is great for middle part of lips. Clean up any mistakes and go back with liner if needed. To avoid getting lipstick on your teeth, your can put your index finger in your mouth and drag it out. This will catch up any lipstick that would have made a stain on your teeth and give your lip make up a perfect look.

Gloss – It is optional. If you finish your dramatic lip color with gloss, it will give you shiny, dramatic flair. Otherwise, you can use a tissue to blot and create a chic matte finish.

Concealer – Just dab a little bit of concealer around your lips. This will not only prevent the color from smearing, but will also make the lips pop.
