How to perfect your lipstick | Pictorial

 Sometimes just chucking on a lipstick isn't going to cut it, especially with some formulas that like to make their way over your face, or does that just happen to me? I've found that applying my lipstick this way, using different lip liners & doing it in different layers helps it to stay put & last a lot longer, too. This is not something that I do everyday but when I have time & I'm wearing a bolder lip colour I like to spend a bit more on the lips. 1.

 What seems to be my go to look lately, is Taupe Eyes & Bright Lips. I think I'll be wearing it quite a bit in the winter, although I should have taken advantage of the extra sunshine we have been getting this autumn because it has now turned dreary. Anyhooo.......... enough about the weather, lol.   Eyes: FOA e/s in Jasper  , Nyx JEP black bean for e/l, white pearl for highlight Lips: I actually used hot pink zinc for my lips, lol! It was just sitting there so I dabbed some on, put some Nyx l/g in LaLa over the top and loved it! This look was done soo long ago and I was getting around to posting it one day lol  Eyes: I'm pretty sure I used The Body Shop's Shimmer cubes Lips: Avon Ultra Color Rich Mega Impact Lipstick (phew!! long name) in Really Rosy blotted down    Not the most exciting post but thx for looking :)

Yup you guessed it, nyx. :) Read on for product list and more piccs  *so this was taken before i got changed into my work shirt, sorry about the hair!!!*  Product list- everything NYX unless otherwise stated Face~ --Peach blush over glow cream blush (I forgets- oops lol) --Taupe for light contouring --Not sure for highlight (or if i even did that step!) Eyes~ --JEP in dark brown --Mocha pearl pigment on lid & lower lashline --I think i may have had leftover colour on my blending brush for the crease but I also added a taupy colour to help blend out --White pearl for highlight --Artliner for top lash line --Bourjois contour eyeliner in waterline...
