Apply lipstick in natural but bright light: Make sure the lines are clear. Good lighting helps you control this. If you notice any roughness, use a clean, stiff brush to correct it. And make sure your teeth are not stained 😜.
Don't try to always use gloss: opt for matte or creamy reds, as glossy lipsticks tend to smudge.
Try the blotting trick: Using a brush, apply lipstick to your lips. Then blot it with a napkin, and then, through a napkin, apply a layer of powder, called transparent, with an ordinary fluffy brush. This will help increase the longevity of the lipstick.
Follow certain rules: Create a balanced appearance. If you're pairing bright red lips with smoky eyes or a bold dress, keep your hair just clean and brushed, no fancy hairdos needed, and accessories don't have to be very flashy.
And one more thing: When wearing red lipstick, use lightweight makeup. Let your lips be the only, but dazzling decoration.
I hope that these simple tips will help you choose the right lipstick according to your complexion and your preferences in general.
