A good lipstick can complete your makeup look. But finding a lip product that completely matches your wishes is still quite a challenge. Because lipstick is (fortunately) available in all kinds, colors and sizes. And once you've found the perfect lipstick, you naturally want it to stay flawless on your lips all day long. We will explain how you can best approach this:
Why add lipstick to your makeup look?
Lips are truly one of the beauties of your face, regardless of shape or thickness! Like eyelashes, eyebrows and cheekbones, there are many ways to accentuate your lips.
If you like a statement look, lipstick is probably your cup of tea. You can give your make-up look something extra with lipstick or make your look a bit more playful. But even if you prefer a natural make-up look, you can easily add a nude lipstick to your look! Lipstick often creates a well-groomed appearance and you can, for example, make your eye color stand out with the right color match. You can also cheat with the thickness of your lips with a lipstick.
How does lipstick last the longest?
It's really annoying when your lipstick smudges or fades, you just don't want this at all. The quality of the lipstick plays a major role in this, but there are also a number of tips & tricks that ensure that your lipstick stays longer on your lips. We have listed all tips & tricks for a longer result for you:
- First of all: take good care of your lips! If your lips are healthy and well hydrated, any lip make-up product will stick to your lips longer.
- Use a lip liner to prevent smudging and smudging, with a lip liner you “trap” your lipstick.
- Use a primer before applying the lipstick. This can also be a foundation.
- Of course it always helps to conveniently order your food / drinks when you sit on a terrace. Straws are a must .
- Set your lipstick by nipping on a tissue. This way you remove excess product.
- Apply transparent loose / solid powder over your lipstick. This makes your lip look extra matte.
- Setting Spray is the key!
What types of lipsticks are there?
Lipsticks come in all kinds of colors, shapes and sizes. It is best to divide lipstick into three different categories or else you will keep going. These are: matte, liquid & cream. In addition, you can distinguish between durability, coverage, gloss, finish and of course the color. In fact, every lip product is suitable for everyone, but this depends on which effect you like more and what you like more. Do you like a matte finish, or do you prefer a glossy result? Do you want your lip color to have a super coverage, or do you like it better if the color is more transparent and does not cover your entire lips? Liquid lipstick is a bit more difficult to apply than cream lipstick. Each lipstick has different properties:
Features of a cream lipstick:
- Creamy substance
- Brings fine
- Soft appearance
- Feels soft on the lips
- Most common
- Intense pigmentation or a soft color
Features of a matte lipstick:
- Matte finish instead of glossy
- Dryer substance
- Opaque / well pigmented
- Suitable for everyday & evening look
- Accentuates well
- Often lung load
Characteristics of a liquid lipstick:
- Liquid substance (just like lip gloss)
- Matte or glossy finish
- Dries (almost completely)
- Works best on moisturized lips
- Great if you like extra glossy
- Remarkable
Which lipstick color is right for me?
First of all, it is important that you just wear a color that you like! But are you curious about which color is best for your face?Not only is the color difficult, but also whether a warm or cool shade suits you. It is best to first look at yourself, which colors of clothes you are wearing, for example.
Pale skin, possibly freckles, light eyes, blond, reddish or light brown hair:
Warm, autumnal tones.
Pale sun sensitive skin, peach skin, brown / green eyes, brown / red hair:
Dark red, coral, apricot, orange, peach and a brownish red.
An olive brown, dark, southern skin or snow-white alabaster-white skin color. The eye color is random, the hair usually dark:
Cold blue and purple tones, deep red, pink and soft pink lipstick, such as rosewood, raspberry or pearl.
Do you like a natural look and do you want your lip make-up not to stand out? Then it is best to choose a lip color that comes closest to your own lip color. This way you create a natural definition on your lips.
How do I apply lipstick?
Moisturize your lips before applying lipstick.
If you want to make extra clean lines, you can purchase a lip brushbefore applying lipstick, then you can apply even more precisely!
To create fuller lips, you can use a lip liner before applying the lipstick. You apply a lip liner around the contours of your lips.
Apply some 'primer'. There are several special lip primers, but you can also use foundation or lip liner as a primer.
Apply the lipstick. And if you want a gloss as a finish!
Which lipstick is good for dry lips?
Do you suffer from dry lips? Or that your lips look like raisins at the end of the day when you wear lipstick? It is important that you take good care of your lips with a lip balm & lip scrub. And it is best to use a cream lipstick. Cream lipsticks often have a nourishing formula and have the best result on dry lips. Give your lips a break from lipstick every now and then :)
