There are many different products you can use to create a sexy hint of colour on your lips, from shiny lip gloss through to dramatic long lasting lipstick, and it is important that you apply these products correctly in order to create look you are trying to achieve.

Lip Liner
Lip liner is usually in a pencil form, and is used to define the outer edges of the lips and create a border edge for any other lip colours you want to apply. You can also use lip liner on its own, blending it across the lips for a subtle sweep of colour, but this can be quite drying so it not suitable if you do have dry lips that are prone to cracking or peeling. You do not need to use lip liner every time you apply lipstick or lip gloss, but it is useful for creating a nice, even shape to lips and here are a few tips for applying:

• Choose a neutral colour lip liner that is the same colour or a few shades lighter than your lipstick. This is so that it doesn’t show through your lipstick colour, especially as it starts to fade throughout the day.
• Before you apply your lip liner smooth on a light coat of foundation, as this can help to set the lipstick and improve its staying power. This can also be drying though, so don’t use this technique too often if you already have dry lips, and make sure you use a creamy lipstick/lip gloss to counteract the dryness.
• Always use a sharp pencil when you are defining the outer edges of the lips, and try to follow your natural lip shape, as it will look very obvious if you try and draw a fake outline to make you lips look bigger or a completely different shape. If you are finding it difficult to sharpen the pencil then leave it in the freezer for a few minutes (don’t forget to take it out!) and it should be firmer and much easier to sharpen.

Lipstick
You can use lipstick without any other products such as lip liner, but without any preparation normal lipsticks will soon wear off and you will need to reapply them regularly. By spending a little time creating a base for the lipstick you can make it last a lot longer, so for special occasions a coat of lip liner and foundation and this will help prepare the lips and improve the staying power of your lipstick. Also don’t forget to apply a layer of lipstick, blot and then apply another layer, as this will also help it too last longer. Always apply lipstick from the middle of your lips sweeping out, as this will help to prevent it from ‘bleeding’ through at the edges and corners, and don’t apply too much as then it will be easily smudged out of shape and could get on your teeth.
