Make Your Lipstick Last Longer
Whether it’s a wineglass or your husband’s cheek, lipstick has a knack for ending up everywhere but on your lips. If you find that yours keeps disappearing before the end of the day, try employing this handy trick to give it a longer life. After swiping on your lippy, place a tissue over your lips and dust on some translucent powder. Doing so will help set your colour and make it instantly longer-lasting.
Fake the Cheekbones
Although not everyone is born with killer cheekbones, we can all fake it. All it takes is some simple sculpting. Start by puckering to find the hollows of your cheeks and apply a deep nude blush or contour powder in the sunken area under your cheekbones. Next, apply a peachy blush starting from the apples of your cheeks and moving outwards while lightly blending with the nude blush beneath. Finish with a sweep of shimmer along the top of your cheekbones and under your temples.
Exfoliate Your Lips
To easily achieve soft and smooth lips that are lipstick ready, exfoliate by gently rubbing them with a baby toothbrush. To make the process even more efficient, use a simple homemade lip exfoliant and brush on in circular motions. All you’ll need is some brown sugar and coconut oil to create an easy, useful, and natural exfoliant.
