LIPSTICK TO BRIGHTEN YOU - Contd...

GENERAL RULES

1. For thin lips, use lighter shades.

2. For full lips, use darker shades.

3. For the day, use lighter shades.

4. For the night, use darker shades.

5. For complexions which are not fair, very light shades should be avoided completely.

HOW TO APPLY LIPSTICK

1. Your lips should be clean and dry.

2. Draw an outline with a brush, and fill up. If for some reason you find this difficult, then

first fill up, leaving the outline clear, and then with the help of the brush make the outline neat and extend the lipstick to wherever you have chosen it to be.

3. Blend evenly.

4. Lustrous lipsticks should not be blotted, as this wouold lose half their lusture.

5. For added sheen use lip-gloss, which looks very attractive at night.

6. Always wipe off the old lipstick if you have to do running repairs to your make-up, and then apply the fresh coat. Otherwise, it will give a flaky finish toyour lips. Besides, the tiny flaky skins cling to your lipstick, will remain embedded in it, and you can never have a smooth finish if you use that lipstick again. If by mistake you find something on your lipstick, wipe it off with a tissue, but very gently.

7. Make use of your dark lipsticks by first applying the rejected dark shade, and then applying the white one, blending it evenly. You will be surprised to get wuch a lovely shade, and in an economical way.
