If you can create perfectly coated lips with the applicator, that’s good, ،wever, for some w، find it a bit challenging, a lip brush might work better for you. Just deposit a small amount of ،uct on the back of your hands and dip the lip liner from there.

Step 3: Outline the Lower Lip

Using the lip brush and a small amount of ،uct, outline the lower lip first be careful not to overline it at first because you can s، building up once you get the lower lip shape done. TIP: Use a thin coat of ،uct to ensure you’re liquid lipstick won’t ، or look too heavy.

Step 4: Outline the Cupid’s Bow

After the lower lip has been outlined, take your lip brush up to your cupid’s bow and line them also. Don’t be in a hurry to fill in your lips, it takes a little bit of patience to create perfectly coated lips with liquid lipstick.

Step 6: Fill

When you’re happy with the shape you’ve created, you can go ahead and fill it in with the remaining ،uct on your brush. For a more vivid color, take the liquid lipstick applicator and put on another coat of color on your lip, careful not to go over the lip shape.

Step 7: Clean Edges

Clean the edges using an angled liner brush and concealer. It’s important to let the liquid lipstick dry out completely as it can mix with the concealer when wet creating a halo of color around where you clean the edges off.
