LIP MAKEUP PRODUCTS FAQS
Lip makeup is a cosmetic that is applied to your lips to create different effects, such as a neutral look that may enhance your natural lip color or a bold look that helps add dimension. Lip makeup can be used to enhance the lips with color, shine, and nourishment. It can also be a makeup skincare hybrid where it can also treat your lips such as moisturizing lip balms that can help nourish and hydrate, while lip scrubs and lip exfoliators can be used to buff away dry skin and help prepare lips for a smooth, flawless application. Different types of lip makeup include lipsticks, lip tints, lip balms, lip glosses, lip liners, lip plumpers, lip stains, and many more.
Start with an exfoliating lip product like a moisturizing lip scrub to buff lips and remove dry skin. Next, apply lip liner in a shade that matches your lipstick to fill and outline your lips. Then apply your moisturizing lipstick over the liner, using a lipstick brush or applying the lipstick straight from the tube. Work from the center outward. Finally, place a tissue between your lips and gently press to blot and set your lipstick in place.
Simply apply a lip gloss like the Lip Plumping Lip Gloss to the center of your lower lip, press your lips together and go. If you want a bit more coverage, apply lip gloss to the center of your lower lip, extend it to each corner and then press your lips together. For a more polished result, fill your lips with lip liner, swipe lip gloss onto your top and bottom lips from center to corner and press your lips together. You can also go back and outline your lips with the liner to refine your lip shape.
Start by exfoliating your lips with a lip exfoliating scrub to remove dry skin and create a smooth, moisturized lip surface. Place a lip liner like the vegan lip liner at the center of your top lip, aka the Cupid’s bow, and trace your lip from the center out to the corner. Repeat on the other side of the top lip and then line the bottom lip in the same way. Fill in the rest of your lips with the lip liner, then top with matching lipstick, lip stain or lip gloss.
If you’re new to lip makeup, start with the basic lip “wardrobe”— sheer or satin lipstick, lip gloss, lip liner and lip balm. These fundamentals will meet the majority of your lip makeup needs. Lipstick and lip liner will give your lips color and polish, lip gloss offers sheer color and shine, and lip balm will nourish and moisturize your lips. As far as lip color goes, choose neutral shades for “everyday” wear, as well as a few more fashion-forward shades such as pink, coral or peach, depending upon your complexion and personal style. For drama, many people embrace rich hues like berry, mauve, red or even a black cherry lipstick. Lip makeup can be habit-forming—it’s always fun to pick up a new shade or try a new formula like a lip stain or tinted lip oil. And why not? Lip makeup is an affordable indulgence that instantly brightens your look, your outfit and your mood, so treat yourself!
