How to apply How to apply  LIP MAKEUP?

Make the outline with the lip Liner – before you take this step to define the shape of your lips with the  lip  line, make sure that your lips are smooth, soft and free of grease. Try using a sharp  lip   liner, it should be a shade close to the color of your lipstick. Apply the same with a steady hand and don't make the line too dark. While making the line on your upper lips, start off with the centre portion and then come toward both the edges. In case of the lower  lip  , make the line from both the sides. 

Try to prime up the lips with A  lip  Balancer – make the base right before applying the lipstick. It should be in a position to be seen balanced out to match the skin tone. If you see that your lips are of an even color, you can use a face powder to act as the best base. 

Fill up with the Lipstick – Use a  lip  brush and fill in the  lip  color on both the lips. Same as that of the  lip  liner, in case of the upper  lip  , you shall have to start off applying at the center and then move towards the two sides. Similarly, for the lower  lip  , apply it from both the sides. Don't put on too much of color. You can always try adding more color later on rather than removing the excess colors. 

Blotting Off - fold a clean tissue paper and hold it between both your lips. If there is excess color, just press your lips slowly together to do away with it. 

Apply  lip  gloss – Lastly, make the finishing touch by applying the  lip  gloss over your lipstick to make your lips gleam with shine. 

5 steps to get Beautiful Lips

Following a few simple steps can help you to get those perfect lips you yearned for a long time:

• The first step to have beautiful lips is to make them soft and supple. Use a  lip   salve or a  lip   balm to keep your lips soft and moisturized. The simplest  lip   balm that you can use is a mixture of 1 drop honey, 1 drop olive oil and 1 drop almond oil. Massage this mixture, gently, into the skin of your lips before you go to bed at night.
• Always remove all traces of makeup from your lips before you go to bed at night.
• Drink lots of water. Drink a balanced diet and exercise regularly. If your body is in good shape, your lips will look healthy.
• Avoid smoking, and chewing tobacco. Also, avoid chewing beetle leaves. These may stain your lips.
• Avoid eating junk foods and keep your alcohol intake to the minimum.

Makeup Tips for Lips.

It's possible to get those tempting, luscious lips in a few quick steps:

• Apply a light foundation (base makeup), evenly, to your lips. Dust a light face powder on them. This will ensure that the lip color stays on longer.
• Get the desired shape of your lips with a lip pencil or a  lip  liner. Ideally the color of the  lip  liner should match the shade of your  lip   color or lipstick.
• The beauty of your lips depends on how perfectly you outline them. For a perfect outline rest your elbows on a hard surface and then draw the borders. Border the upper  lip  first. Give your upper lips a Cupid's bow shape and then go on to the lower one.
• Always use a brush while applying lipstick on the lips. Choose a lipstick which suits your dress, hair and complexion and fill the outlined portion with it. Open your mouth and apply the  lip  color evenly on your lips. You may use  lip   sticks or liquid  lip  colors. For a glossy effect apply  lip  gloss over your lipstick. If you are going out in the evening, you may even use  lip  glitter.
• Use a blotting tissue to remove excess lip makeup. Lightly press the blotting tissue onto your lips and remove it.

lip  sticks and  lip  colors usually have three different effects: matte, frosted, glossy. Ideally, those with thick lips should avoid  lip  gloss and glossy  lip  sticks or  lip  colors
