Hello there, makeup mavens and newcomers alike! Ever been puzzled about how to make your lipstick stay put? Or perhaps you're tired of your lip color looking uneven and blotchy? Well, today let’s change that! I'll guide you through the steps to achieve that perfect pout using lipstick.

Lipstick does wonders, whether you're seeking to express your unique style, elevate your daily look, or even boost your confidence for a special occasion. It's about how you feel when you wear it. Choosing the right lipstick is akin to donning your favorite outfit; it just makes everything better and will boost your confidence when applying it correctly. Let’s begin!

Before reaching for your lipstick, make sure your lips are smooth and hydrated. A little exfoliation can go a long way. Use a simple sugar scrub or a specialized lip exfoliator to remove any flaky skin. It's crucial because well-moisturized lips allow for a smoother application. You can also use a soft toothbrush. Press softly on lips and move in small circular motions.

If you want your lipstick to last longer and look more defined, a lip liner is your best friend. Outline your lips first and then fill them in. This serves as a base and gives your lipstick something to grip onto. Here are our selections if liners. Find one close to the lipstick color your choose if not a bit darker.

Now comes the fun part—applying the lipstick. Swipe it on directly or use a lip brush for precision. Either way, make sure to cover every nook and cranny for an even look. EyeBreakfast had a great selection of lipsticks for you.

If you’re in the fence and need a recommendation right off the bay, I would suggest our Absolute click gloss colors. These are highly pigmented, have a push up application and are good on the go.

If you want a long lasting smudge resistant lipstick, I would recommend our MAYBELLINE Super Stay Vinyl Ink line lip colors.

Blotting might seem like an old-fashioned tip, but trust me, it works! Simply press a tissue between your lips and then apply another coat. This trick not only sets your lipstick but also ensures it stays vibrant for hours.

For that extra staying power and a touch of glamour, a swipe of lip gloss or a spritz of setting spray can make all the difference. But remember, if you're going for a matte look, skip the gloss.

Ah, the joys of a well-applied lipstick! It's a small but transformative step in your makeup journey, whether you're experienced or a newbie just starting. The right technique can seriously elevate your whole look.
