Tips for Perfect Lipstick Application
1Primer and Preparation
We have mentioned it before, and we shall say it again. Applying that perfect coat of lipstick, may at the end of the day be all about how hygienic and hydrated you lips are. Covering up chapped lips with lipstick, only highlights the crevices and lines on your lips. You may want to gently scrub away the dead skin and apply a thin coat of lip balm on your lips, so as to form a healing base.
2The Matter of Choice
The Lipsticks are very similar to a haircut in may ways. There are styles and patterns which would suit a particular face type, and may just look horrendous on others.
Similarly, in the case of lipsticks, one would have to know the color tone and finish, of the lipstick that may suit their face. It is most certainly not like picking up a smart phone, as one is bound to learn only through experimentation.

5After Blot
You may want to use a tissue paper to blot the layer of lipstick which you may have applied. Avoid pressing the tissue in between your lips as it may come off unevenly.
Instead, press the piece of tissue gently over the lips. You may apply a second layer of the same colour to have a lasting effect.
