Lipstick is an all-too-familiar makeup item for girls.
It is also an impressive presence with its richness of color, the nuances of moisturization, and the sense of fashion and trendiness that it shows on the face.
Nowadays, the items in women's bags are simplified again, and cell phones and lipsticks are essential items, which shows how important it is for women.
The role of lipstick is to create your own fashion personality and enhance the eye-catching effect of your entire makeup.
Lipsticks add beauty to the face as well as correct the contours of the lips, making them more vibrant.
Lipstick shades are closely related to women's hairstyles, nail polish shades and clothing changes, becoming more trendy.
In particular, the use of various pearlescent powders and treatment pigments in recent years has led to a greater variety of lipstick shades and a more comfortable texture.
Similar to the trend of other beauty cosmetics, it continues to remain beauty-oriented, taking into account moisturizing, nourishing and sun protection functions.
Advances in lipstick formulations, raw materials and processes are driving the development of the lipstick industry.
In addition, lipstick can also be used as eye shadow, blush and so on. Let’s take a look.
1. Substitute eye shadow
When you are doing makeup, sometimes you can't find eye shadow in the same color, so the makeup artist will use lipstick instead, both to match and to solve the problem.
If you don't have the right eye shadow either, using lipstick as eyes shadow is also a good choice.
It is best to use a special pre-makeup eye cream or eye foundation to set the makeup before makeup.
This way you don't have to worry about the color of the lipstick caking as well as the oils of the lipstick being too greasy for the eyes.
It is easier for people with double eyelids to use lipstick as eye shadow, just like the usual eye shadow, added between and on top of the eyelids.
You can't use hand color for this step, otherwise, it will easily go on unevenly and appear as a block.
If you have single eyelids, you should pay attention to the fact that lipstick can only be used at the head and tail of the eye, not in the middle.
Otherwise, the eyes will look puffier and the overall makeup effect is not good.
2. Contouring
Using lipstick to modify the contours of the face is the "secret trick" of makeup artists.
This can make your face look smaller and more three-dimensional.
In terms of color, it is best to choose dark coffee-colored lipstick.
This is the reason why many professional brands have "non-red" lipsticks on their counters.
It turns out that lipstick can also have this effect.
When you use lipstick as a touch-up, the color is soft and not too dark and obvious.
After using a brush to put on the lipstick, first, start from the hairline of the cheekbones and apply it to the mouth, outlining the effect of a small face.
The color can be slowly deepened, pay attention to the area, and do not brush too much at once too heavy.
There are so many things that lipstick can do, and as long as you use it, then it is a jack of all trades.
