Luscious Lips

Makeup artist techniques for liscious lips

There are simple lipstick makeup applications that can balance out imperfections and help create symmetry for more luscious lips.

Thin Lips: Use lighter lip colors, dark colors will make thin lips look thinner.
Apply a highlight just above the bow of the lip and and also at the center of the bottom lip. This will give the illusion of fuller lips.

Uneven Lips: Use a lip liner to balance out the lip shape. Apply a lipstick rather than a gloss because gloss draws attention to the natural lip line but not the newly drawn one.

Upper Thin Lip: To make the top lip appear bigger, apply more lipstick to the bottom lip and extra gloss on the top lip. You can also apply a highlight to the top lip’s bow.

Full Lips: Can be made smaller by using darker colors and avoiding high gloss.
