Tips for Applying Lip Color

Before applying lip color, prepare your lips with moisturizer or a specially designed lip primer, so that the color goes on evenly and lasts longer without feathering.

With more neutral shades, opt for a lipliner close to your natural lip color.

Avoid frosted lipsticks as they rarely enhance your teeth or the shape of your mouth.

Choose a lip color to pull a look together, but, remember, as a general rule, blue-toned (rather than orange-toned) reds and pinks and browns will make your teeth appear whiter.
