The art of lip makeup is to follow several simple rules with which the sponge will become more voluminous and more seductive:

1. The first step in creating lip makeup - their cleansing. Before applying lipstick make a light scrub with a special composition for the lips or regular sugar, and a toothbrush will also work. Lightly massage your lips with abrasive particles to remove flakes and create a uniform structure.
2. On wetted sponge lipstick falls flat and also does not overdry them. Everyone knows that matte lipstick can dry lips, and yet they emphasize all the imperfections of the skin of the lips.Before using a lipstick without a glossy shine, it is recommended to pre-apply the usual balsam on the skin, soak for about 3-5 minutes and blot them with a napkin to remove excess product.
3. Before applying lipstick take care of the contour of the lips - use a pencil of a similar shade with lipstick to create it. The contour will not allow the coating to go beyond the lips and will help to visually make them larger.
4. Professional makeup artists use a brush to apply lipstick on the lips. This technique allows you to create a uniform layer of decorative cosmetics and form a uniform coating, paint over even the most hard-to-reach areas (corners).
5. Another professional secret - applying a tonal tool or a special primer (base) before using lipstick. This method allows you to get a smooth lip texture and maintain the resistance of the product for a long time.
6. If you use coverage in the summer, apply a balm with SPF protection under it. This step will help protect delicate skin from the aggressive effects of UV rays and prevent its dryness.
7. Lip Makeup Removal - no less important step than its application. Remove the pigment previously moistened in milk or micellar water with a cotton disk in the upward direction.
8. Another secret lies in lip-blotting after make-up - this technique allows you to remove excess pigment and get a natural look.
