How to apply a liquid lipstick

5 tips you must follow to apply a liquid lipstick

One of the most coveted beauty products right now is a liquid lipstick. Unlike traditional lipsticks, they need only one coat, they are long lasting and have an intense colour pay off. If you're a newbie to this lip product, then we've got you covered. Here are the five beauty tips for liquid lipsticks every girl needs to follow:

02/6​Be patient

You can't apply liquid lipstick on the go or under 10 seconds. It requires time and a mirror too. You need to apply it patiently to your lips and don't let the liquid smear.

03/6​Apply make-up too

Just applying the liquid lipstick can break your look. As they are highly pigmented, you need to balance out the look with a little bit of make-up. For bold and dark shades, you can also apply a bit of blush to complement the look.

04/6​Don't apply too many coats

With such lipsticks, one swipe is enough! To avoid extra pigmentation, you can remove the extra lipstick on the wand before applying it. This way, you can get an even texture and more control over the application. That said, if you want a dramatic look, you can add more coats to get that look!

05/6​Flaky lips are a big no

Start with a clean canvas. If your lips are chapped, then exfoliate and moisturise your lips to get a smooth base. Pigmented colours can collect on the cracks, making your lipstick look patchy and dry.

06/6​Precision is the key

If you find it hard to define your lips with the lipstick wand, then you can use a lip brush. Start by defining your cupid's bow, lining your lips and then filling in the colour.
