Lipstick: 5 mistakes to avoid

Lipstick: 5 mistakes to avoid And all the tips to never repeat them again

Even if this last year has been really a challenge for our beloved lipstick, due to the mask and the missed opportunities to wear it, let's not forget that it is always one of the must-haves of a self-respecting beauty case, in fact it can help to keep morale high and experiment with make up. So what is the secret to apply it perfectly? There are those who put the pencil first, but the tone is wrong; who uses the brush, but in the wrong way; those who think they can solve the problem of dry and chapped lips with a gloss. The application of the lipstick hides deceptions, it is true, but there are several tips to have seductive and perfect lips.

 

1. Not moisturizing your lips

It is essential to prepare the lips before wearing lipstick, moisturizing them with specific products like lip balms. Furthermore, when you cleanse your face in the morning and in the evening, it is also good to cleanse your lips and use a specific scrub on a weekly basis so that impurities are eliminated, and the mouth benefits to the maximum of moisturizing and nourishing products when applied.

 

2. Distort the natural shape of the lips 

Even though sometimes we all want fuller and defined lips, you should never distort the natural shape of the mouth with make-up: of course, it can be slightly corrected but never go beyond the millimeter to increase or modify its outline.

 

3. Don't dab the "leftovers" after application

Especially if we are applying a vibrant lipstick, to prevent it from ending up on the teeth, just take a tissue and tighten the lips. The residues that you will see remaining on the tissue are those that would inevitably have ended up on the teeth.

 

4. Choose a darker lip pencil

To avoid highlighting the expression marks on the lip contour, it is better to use a neutral colored pencil (like butter), rather than dark, specific to contain the lipstick and not to let it migrate.

 

5. Not using the concealer to define

Once the lipstick has been applied, to ensure that the result is more precise and the lips appear more protruding, you can apply as a last step a bit of concealer in the lower outer corners of the mouth, from the top towards the center.
