Pucker-up Valentine
The two things I don’t leave home without are mascara and lipstick. A lip gloss will do in a pinch and sometimes I wear multiple layers of lipstick and gloss combined. I’m so addicted I even adorn my lips before getting into bed…just to feel pretty. With Valentine’s Day upon us we’ve pulled together a list of some of the hottest lip embellishing products of the season. FACE atelier has been kind enough to provide us with a list of their “Pro Lipstick Do’s & Don’ts” which can be followed all year long.
What will you be wearing on your lips this Valentine’s Day? Be sure to post and tell us below. What will my lips be primed in for my Valentine this holiday? Only my Valentine will know!
FACE atelier Pro Lipstick Do’s & Don’ts
Do lightly line the lips with a complementary lip liner and fill in the whole lip for a more even fade throughout the day.
Do top off lipstick with a transparent of shimmer gloss to enhance the color of lipstick.
Do regularly apply a moisturizing product like Lip Putty of Lip Ex to prevent cracked lips and reduce the feathering and bleeding of color into the lips’ fine lines or wrinkles.
Don’t use a lip liner darker than your lip shade just to line your lip, without filling it in. As it fades, you’re left with an unflattering outline – the cosmetic equivalent of a panty line.
Don’t match your lipstick to your outfit. Makeup should always match your skin tone, not your skirt.
Don’t set lipstick with powder. It dries out the finish and your lips, while accentuating those pesky fine lip lines and cracks.
