Make your lips appear fuller: Wear lighter shades of lipstick. This tip follows the rule of color. The lighter the color, the larger it looks. The darker the object, the smaller it looks.
Coordinate the color of your lips with your blush. First, apply clear lip gloss to your lips. Next, using the tip of your pinkie finger, gently wipe blush over the lip gloss. If you like this tip, you may also like Blush and Lipstick Color Chart.
Longer wearing lipstick
After applying your lipstick, lightly dust your lips with translucent face powder.
Apply blush over the lips, followed by lip gloss, for a long-lasting matte finish.
Stop lipstick from transferring from your lips to your teeth, wrap your finger with a tissue, place your finger between your lips, close your lips, and pull your finger out of your mouth. Lipstick that would have otherwise transferred to your teeth is now on the tissue.
To stop lipstick from bleeding into the fine lines surrounding the lips, first line your lips with a lip liner pencil that closely matches the color of your lipstick; then apply your lipstick with a lipstick brush.
Keep your favorite lipstick around longer. Less lipstick is needed to color your lips with a lipstick brush.
