Hello, my stylish friends! On the far and few days I want to wear a bold lip color (emphasis on few days), it’s an occassion, for sure-but I prepare accordingly. Last thing I want people to notice is sloppy lipstick: no, thank you! So, what do I do to prep my (very chapped, unfortunately) lips?
Lip scrub: sugar, vaseline, sealed with chapstick
Primer: often overlooked, but helps tremendously
Apply once
Blot, powder
Apply again
Blot, powder
More chaptick … ugh
It’s definitely a process (I also re-apply throughout the night), but I don’t mind it too much, given that I wear lipstick maybe once a month. I don’t have a single, favorie lipstick, but I love products from the Sephora Collection and L’Oreal – each of which can come at more value-driven prices.
