We all love gloss, right? A lovely nude is my go-to right now. Have you ever applied a gloss and well it just doesn't look quite right?
If so there are some really really quick and simple things to do to get the most from your gloss or lipstick!
1. Exfoliate!
Smooth lips are best. Applying gloss on top of dry lips just isn't going to work. You need to get rid of that dry skin first. Simply use a wet flannel, a dot of facial scrub or even your toothbrush and gently rub off that dry skin. I like to do this before bed and then slather on a rich & hydrating lip balm for an moisturising overnight treat.
2. Line your lips!
If you find your lipgloss or lipstick bleeds a simple swipe of a lip liner can stop this in its tracks. Choose a liner colour closest to your natural lip colour and line just inside the edge of your lips. For extra staying power use the same lip liner and colour in your entire lips before applying your gloss.
3. Less is more!
When applying your gloss or lippie start in the middle of your lips and blend outwards. Applying too much can cause it to bleed and look stringy. Use a lip brush or I just use my ring finger. Build up the product slowly!
So there you have it, quick and simple ways to make your lips totally kissable! My go-to nude is Younique's Luxe! A must have all round perfect colour!
I'm off to apply some more gloss!
