Lipstick is one of the most important beauty product every girl has in her bag. It can instantly glam up the look, no matter how tired you are! While lipstick application seems easy, but there a few common mistakes a lot of women end up making. Curious? Here's are six such mistakes you might be making.
01/ Applying lipstick on chapped lips
If you have chapped lips, applying lipstick will make your lip colour look patchy at areas. This is because dry areas collect the product, giving an uneven finish. To avoid that, keep yourself hydrated and use a medicated lip balm or oil to smooth out the lips.
02/ You never exfoliate your lips
Exfoliating your lips is as important as face scrubbing. A good lip scrub can help to get rid of dead skin and make your lips smooth.
03/ You're not applying a lip liner
Using a lip liner can help to define your lips and also give a long-wearing finish. Skipping this step can make your lipstick bleed and feather out easily.
04/ Your lipstick shade is wrong
Just like the foundation, you need to choose a lip colour that suits your skin tone. A wrong shade can make your face look too pale, while a right shade can make your face look bright and teeth whiter.
05/ You're applying too much lipstick
If you end up applying too much lipstick, then it will easily smear on glasses, clothes and also your teeth. Once you apply the lipstick, blot it with a tissue paper, to avoid the extra product. To avoid lipstick on teeth, put your index finger in your mouth and pull it out quickly. This way you will have the excess product on your finger.
06/ You forget to remove the lipstick
While you might think that your lipstick is all washed out, but it's still necessary to remove your lipstick at night. The residue of lip colour can make your lips dry and rough. So, the next time you wear lipstick, make sure you remove it at night.
