Halloween How To: The Perfect Blood Red Lip

To begin:  lightly exfoliate lips with a little sugar, water and your finger or toothbrush finger to remove dead skin.  Next: lightly moisturize and blot lips on a tissue.  Cancel out natural lip color with a primer or concealer, and lightly powder with a translucent powder. With a very sharp red liner, line the natural lip line and fill in everything.   Using a lip brush, repeat the process with lipstick. Next lightly powder again with translucent powder, repeat lipstick application & lightly powder one last time. Taking a thin concealer brush and a light concealer gently (& w a light touch) line OUTSIDE original liner line to clean up and sharpen edges. Using a clean brush, blend concealer. If you aren't interested in the traditional matte red lip, add a small dab of gloss in the center of bottom lip to make lips appear more full. Tip: to keep lipstick off of teeth - insert finger in mouth, close lips around it and pull it out. Voila! Any lipstick that might have ended up on your teeth is now on you finger! CherSee More
