Preparation
Now, this may sound odd, but its a beauty trick I was told by a friend and it works a treat!
Take a new toothbrush and soak it in hot (not boiling) salty water. Rub your lips in a circular motion with the bristles of the toothbrush for no more than a minute per lip, depending on how dry/ chapped your lips are. Now all of the dry skin on your lips will be removed and you should be left with lovely soft lips, yay!
Step One
Apply cupids bow lovely little lip shaping set. The bow maker highlights your top lip and the pout maker defines the bottom. Use this just like you would a lip liner. To my dismay they discontinued this product (silly, silly benefit) but you can still buy it on Ebay or Amazon!
Step Two
Use the thicker end of the Bare Minerals brush to apply a layer of a lip stick of your choice.
For the evening look I used Estee Lauder Pure Colour in 'Black Cassis'.
For the day look I used Topshop Lipstick in 'Innocent'.
Step Three
Take a different lipstick of a lighter shade and apply a thin layer to the bottom lip. Then apply another small dab to the middle of your top lip.
For the evening look I used Topshop Lipstick in 'Innocent'.
For the day look I used Rimmel Lipstick in 'Fancy' (210).
Step Four
Here is another beauty trick you may not have heard off. Apply a small amount of Benefits High Beam to the middle of your bottom lip and rub in lightly with the base of your finger. This instantly makes your lips look bigger and fuller, creating a gorgeous pout!
Step Five
Take your original base colour from Step Two, and the thinner end of the Bare Mineral brush, and apply a fine line of lipstick around the edge of your lips and blend blend blend!
Step Six
Apply a layer of Lipcote over your lips and your lipstick wont budge for hourssss! I adore this product as it saves me so much time, and once you've created your perfect lip look you don't want to have to keep touching up when you are out. Double yay!
I hope you found this helpful!
