There are some precious hacks that every woman needs to know to wear lipstick properly and get fuller and kissable lips. Thus check out these 20 lipstick hacks and see how you can achieve the desired effects without putting too much effort on!
1. Exfoliate your Lips to Get Smoother Effects
Prep your lips before you apply the color on by exfoliating and moisturizing them properly. Note that for better effects, you should consider using a clean mascara wand. Just apply lip balm on your lips and brush with a mascara wand.
2. Clean Lipstick Stains Left on your Teeth with your Finger
Put your pointer finger in your mouth, wrap your lips around it and pull out to get rid of the stains left on your teeth.
3. Apply a Pink Lipstick Instead of Blush
Apply any tone of pink on your cheeks and blend well to get the same effects as you would if you’d apply a cream blush.
4. Use a Broken Eyeshadow as a Lip Color
Yes, you can use eyeshadow as a lip color! Wondering how? You just have to put the broken pieces in a small tube add a small amount of lip balm, mix well and apply! Easy, isn’t it?
5. Use Concealer to Create a More Accurate Look
Especially if you have small lips using concealer brush would be a good idea as it will help you to create an accurate look and avoid getting dark stains on your face.
6. Use a Fluffy Brush to Apply Lipstick to get a More Diffused Look
By using a fluffy brush you’ll create a softer look as the color will blend well and look more natural on your lips.
7. Get Long Lasting Effects by Using Translucent Powder
Apply a lipstick of any color of your preference. Grab a tissue and hold it over your mouth. Once you’ve done that simply apply a small amount of translucent powder on the tissue to lock the color and prevent it from running.
8. Apply Concealer on your Lips to Hide Red Tones
By applying concealer on your lips you’ll ensure that you have a clear base to apply the lipstick color that you want to. If you have pinkish or red tones on your lips the lipstick color that you’ve chosen will not look quite the same on your lips.
9. Use Concealer to Reshape your Lips
Create the desired lip form by applying concealer on the needed surface. Line up your lips with a dark lip liner and fill in with concealer to get fuller lips.
10. Blot to Get Long Lasting Effects
Blotting helps to remove excess oil and get smoother and long lasting effects. So always blot in between while applying lipstick to achieve and maintain the desired results.
11. Consider you Skin Tone
In you have fair skin tone then you should mainly use lipstick with pink undertones. If you have medium skin color then formulas with orange undertones are the best while for dark chocolate skin tones any dark lip color can work very well.
12. Stick with the Right Red Lipstick
For fair skinned women we suggest formulas with blue or red undertones while for medium tones lipsticks with orange undertones are the best choice. For darker skin tones we suggest burgundy red.
13. Accentuate your Cupid’s bow with Lip Liner
Draw an ”X” on the center of your upper lip then line up your lips and fill in to create the illusion of having fuller lips. Finish off with a lipstick of the same color to get better effects.
14. Line the Outside of your Lips with Concealer
This way you’ll create a big contrast that will make your lips look fuller and plumper. Also you’ll block the color preventing it from running.
15. Store your Lipstick in Pill Boxes When Travelling
Cute the heads and store them in pill boxes in order to save some room in your suitcase for other stuff.
16. Restore a Broken Lipstick
Ok this is very easy as all you have to do is melt the surface of the two pieces and fuse them together.
17. Store your Lipstick in the Fridge in the Summer Season
This way you’ll prevent it from melting and make sure it’s usable even if it’s hot outside.
18. Make your Lips Look Fuller by Using Two Shades of the Same Color Family
Start by applying one shade of any color of your preference all over your lips and then follow adding a very light tone of the same color in the center of your lips to create the illusion of fuller lips.
19. Remove Lipstick Stains with Hair Spray
Just make sure you’re not dealing with dry-clean fabric. Spray a small amount of hairspray on the needed area, dab the stain and throw the clothing piece in the washer. You’ll be amazed by the results.
20. Soften your Lip Liner using your Fingers
Just blend your lip liner using your fingertip to soften the look and get a more natural effect.
