Tips

 

It is recommended that your lips are moisturized before applying it, so that the color is better distributed and there are no lumps. You can also rub them with a toothbrush in gentle circular movements, as you will reactivate the circulation of the area and improve the texture by removing dead cells.

Once done, you can add a few more touches of color with the fingertip, to give it a more natural point. If you feel like the color is totally matt and you don’t find the tone you like, you can try applying compact or loose powders by using a pad or wide brush. To get more volume you can do the following trick: apply a touch of beige concealer to the center of your lips.
