The Best Make Up for a Perfect PoutIf your best make up is always spoiled by thin dry lips with no definition then you probably need a new technique.
The cosmetic industry is spoiling us with lipsticks and glosses that boast anti aging ingredients, moisturizers, anti-fade colour and light reflecting shimmer. All we need for a perfect pout. So let's look into choosing the right ones and how we should apply them to get the best results
Colours are of course abundant and we look longingly at the vibrant deep berries and reds. But the deeper colours emphasise thinner lips and are likely to bleed into the thin lines around the mouth. The beautiful nude shades are prone to leaving you looking washed out.
So where to go? It's the "Pinks" in every hue from peach to pretty that are the best make up for lips and mature faces. Choose a creamy texture with all the anti aging, plumping, anti fade properties and a lip lining brush or pencil a few shades lighter. Yes lighter! The lip liner brush or softest pencil is for outlining the lips to enhance the contour. It was never meant to be seen! Lips with dark circles around them are not attractive and only highlight the loss of definition. I have much thinner lips now and I find using a softer colour means I can trace slightly over the natural line enhancing the shape. Fill in with the brush or pencil too, like colouring in a book. This make up artist's trick will ensure that the lipstick you use on top lasts until very late.
If you like more shimmer add a dot of lip gloss to the centre of the bottom lip and...voila! Angelina who?
This more subtle technique for lips means you can go for a stunning eye make up effect. Use colours and products that are kind to less than perfect eyelids and avoid the glittery mistakes that age instantly. Eyebrows should never be neglected. Find out how to enhance your brows however sparse they are. Remember to keep your lips exfoliated regularly and moisturized with a special lip moisutrizer or eye cream. Soft supple lips look younger and much more attractive.
