Top Tips for Red Lips

Posted by Sidrah on 22:26 with 3 comments

Wearing red lipstick can be a bit tricky especially for beginners. Red is always an in-trend shade of lipstick all year around. From bright coral reds (Color Rush Lipstick Jet Setter) to deep burgundy reds (Color Rush Lipstick in Drop Dead Gorgeous), there is a shade of red for every skin tone and occasion. 


For a daytime red, choose a sheer application of lipstick. This can be done by lightly dabbing the lipstick and blending it out with your finger for a soft red lip. If you find that the shade of red lipstick doesn’t compliment your skin tone, apply a gold or bronze shade of lipgloss for a warmer shade.

Avoid using a red lip liner if the shade red lipstick doesn’t match the lip liner since you will end up with a different shade of red on your lips. Instead find the shade of lip liner that matches your natural lip color and apply it all over your lips. A lip liner will keep your red lipstick from feathering after long hours since red lipstick needs to look tidy on the lips otherwise the mess will look unpleasant.

Avoid lipstick on your teeth. After applying your lipstick, put your finger in your mouth, purse your lips around it, then slowly pull it out to remove excess color.

Use a lip brush. For precise application, using a brush to apply your lipstick will give a clean outline without over application of product. Using a lip brush will also prevent your lipstick from bleeding outside your lip line.

Application:
  • Start with a lip liner that matches your natural lip shade. Apply the liner inside your natural lip line for a flattering look.
  • Apply the lipstick on the center of your lip either with a lip brush or directly from the stick then blend the lipstick outward to the rest of your lips. Start with a thin layer or lipstick and gradually build up to your desired color.
