Lipstick Tricks


Lipstick can be tricky at times.
It has hard to find the right shade,
and hard to find the right brand.
A lot of them don’t really do
what they promise to do, and well
let’s face it: we all spend a ton
of dough on these pout beautifiers!

I am going to give you some good
tips and tricks on lipstick so that you
will have less to worry about! First tip:
store the lipstick in the fridge! It will
last you weeks longer! Never leave your
lipstick in your purse where there is a lot
of heat because it will melt! Second tip:
never ever use tester lipsticks. It’s completely
unhygienic and it’s so much easier just to
test on your hand.

Third tip: use a lip liner as the base. If you
fill in your lips with a lip liner, your lipstick
will last much longer. Make sure that you
use a nude lip liner so it doesn’t stand out
too much.

Fourth tip: if you’re going to apply
lipstick, don’t skip the lip liner. It will
make your lips look fuller and softer
as well as give them some definition.

Fifth tip: don’t get caught with
embarrassing lipstick marks
on your teeth. Try this: after applying
your lipstick stick your finger in your
mouth and pop it out. It will get rid
of all the excess lipstick that has formed
underneath your lips.

Tip number six: if you’re short on blush,
you can always use lipstick. Make sure you
don’t put too much so that it doesn’t look fake.
Tip number seven: the older you are, the creamier
your lipstick should be.

Tip eight: don’t throw out the lipsticks that you
don’t like. Instead, make them useful by
combining them with other shades of lipsticks
and making a beautiful colour out of them.

Tip nine: to get your lips to be plump, apply
liner just outside of your natural lip line.
Tip ten: if you want your lip gloss to stay,
apply a lip liner first.

Tip eleven: If your lipstick breaks in half, don’t
throw it out: they’re expensive! Instead, take the broken
piece with a tissue, wave a match under it and stick it
back onto the other piece. Put in the fridge for five
minutes and it’s good as new!

Tip twelve: never wear brown or orange
shades of lipstick as they will make your
teeth appear yellow. Tip thirteen:
to save even more money, when your lipstick is
done scrape off the last bits at the bottom
with a cotton swab and mix it in a palette with
Vaseline or lip gloss.

And last but not least, the last tip of the day:
If you want to keep your lipstick off your glass,
discretely lick the lip of the glass before touching
your lips to it. No lipstick on that glass!
