Tips On Applying Red Lipstick
Lipstick is probably one of the most classic and versatile makeup products on the market. It’s a subtle way to jazz up your daily face while still being natural, or it can be a dash of color and vibrancy to bring any outfit to life. Here are some tips on how to apply red lipstick.
1. Apply thin layer
It is generally easier to apply thinner layers of red lip color on the lips. When you apply a thicker layer, it will look more blotchy and uneven. This is because the product is either not absorbed by the lips or sits on top of the existing layer of skin. In addition, too much product will make it harder to blend, making it more noticeable.
2. Use a brush
Instead of applying directly from the tube, apply it with a brush for better control and precision. This will make your lips more natural-looking. The brush also allows you to define the boundaries between your lips and your skin, creating smoother transitions.
3. Use concealer
To help the color blend into the skin, use a concealer or foundation first on your lips and blend it until there are no visible lines anymore. Then apply your lipstick. You can use a lip brush to help you with the blending.
First, apply the concealer or foundation onto your lips. While working from left to right, gently pat your lips to blend them into the product. Then use the lip brush to even it out and create a soft, natural look. You can also add a bit of brown eye shadow for extra definition.
4. Blend well
Blend the lipstick well with your fingers, as to not leave blotches on the lips.
It is best to wipe off any excess product on the sides of the tube before application. This will allow you to control exactly how much product you apply and avoid wasting it. You can also use a cotton swab for smaller areas, like the corners of your mouth or the cupid’s bow.
It is important to remember that women’s lips are not all the same size. The shape and depth of the cupid’s bow can also affect how lip color will look on you. Be creative with your application and experiment with different shades to find the perfect red lipstick for you.
