Start with a base of either powder or sheer foundation. This gives lipstick something to adhere to.( if using a lip pencil, use foundation as powder is to dry) Priming lips also helps color last longer.
A pointed lip brush will give a more professional application- especially for getting inside corners. Also , its brush strokes mirror the lips natural texture.
If lips are uneven, use lip pencil to compensate by ever so slightly under or overdrawing where needed. Blend into lips to avoid a line.
For the most natural look of all, don`t outline lips. Whether working with a pencil or lipstick, start in the center of lips and work out to the edges.
To avoid an overly- made up look, don`t emphasize the eyes and lips at the same time. When wearing dark, smokey eyes for example go with a paler mouth. Conversely, deep lip colors look better with softer eyes.
