How to make your lips appear
very full…even if they are not:
1) Apply lipstick using your full
lip line…blot lightly.
2) The consistency of the lip liner
pencil is most important…(our pencil has the correct consistency.) Make sure the pencil has a point. Then lightly blend the pencil color around your lips’ edges and into the lipstick, making sure to cover the full edge of your lip line…even going over the edge ever-so-slightly. Do not just make a dark line around the lips with your pencil….smudge
or blend the two colors together so there is no line of demarcation
between the lipstick and lip pencil. Do not put the lip liner
color all over the lips. The trick is to have the outer part
of the lips appear darker than the middle of the lips.
3) If you want/need to add more
lipstick, now is the time to do it. You can apply a lighter shade
of lipstick, if you wish. If you do, only apply it to the middle
of the lips taking care not to go over or on the lip line itself
with this second color…this would spoil the effect you
have just made of having the lips darker toward the outer edges.
4) Blot your lips lightly…powder over lightly, at least powder the edges of your lips. The powder covers up your secret method of achieving fuller lips. Leaving a shine on the edges of your fuller lips makes your secret art work obvious…the
powder camouflages it.
5) If you like the subtle lip gloss
look, now is the time to apply it. Apply it on the inside lower
lip only . . .for a lovely delicate look. Do not apply it on
the lip line…again it will expose your fuller lip secret!
