·      Prep the lower part of face and apply base.

·      Apply lip liner my massaging the pencil backwards and forwards to create a stronger pigment.

·      For more control, ask model to tilt head and slant the pencil in the direction on the lips. Hold pencil closer to the tip and wear a puff on the little finger to avoid contact taking the base off.

·      To largen the lips, bring the line slightly above the lip.

·      Regularly stand back to check if the lips are evenly drawn on.

·      Pencil in the rest of the lips to create a colour primer.

·      Cover entire lips with lipstick using a flat brush.

·      Use an angled brush for a defined look.

·      Blot lips using tissue and reapply lipstick multiple times to fix the colour.

Matte lips:

·      Apply colour to lips as instructed above.

·      Hold up tissue to lips and dust through loose transparent powder using a fluffy brush.

Glossy lips:

·      Apply colour as instructed above.

·      Apply gloss over the top, but only focus on the centre of the lips and cupid’s bow.

Pinched ombre lips:

·      Prep the lips as before.

·      Apply a white base over the lips. This helps the colour to pop more by creating a blank canvas for the colour.

·      Using a fluffy brush, ‘buff’ the cream colour onto the lips, focusing more on the centre.

·      At the very centre of the lips, dab on the colour with your fingers for a more intense colour.

·      For a slightly different look, try applying coloured powder with a fluffy brush.
