There are many cosmetic products in the world that can help you emphasize your beauty and preserve your youth. However, if you use them incorrectly, you will get the opposite result.
Lip makeup can dramatically change your image both for the better and for the worse. That's why makeup artist Erica Taylor, who has been working in the beauty industry for over 25 years, spoke about a common mistake that almost all makeup lovers make.
It is not uncommon for women to emphasize their entire colored contour with a lip pencil. In addition, they draw too hard lines and make the tick above the upper lip too sharp.
This common mistake makes your lips appear smaller and thinner, and emphasizes the wrinkles around them, visually adding years to your appearance.
How to apply lip pencil correctly
Taylor recommends drawing a softer, more rounded line just above where you normally would.
Also, don't draw out the corners of the lips. Emphasize the middle of the upper and lower lips, then blend the product with your finger to create a smoother transition.
Finally, fill in the lips with gloss.
