Red lips are always hot and never go out of fashion. So to get this popular look start off by finding the perfect tone of red for your lips. Bright and classic reds look great on lighter skin women. Women with wheatish complexion should opt for brick reds while intense bluish-red hues compliment those with darker complexions.
Now, you can’t get that kissable, gorgeous look of Scarlett Johansson with dry and flaky lips. Apply a lip balm to moisturize and soften the lips. If your lips are badly chapped, use a concealer or foundation on the outer edge. This prevents the color from feathering.
Start by applying your favorite shade directly on the bottom lip. I prefer using lipstick palettes with a lip brush. This way I can store more shades in less space. Mesh the lips together to let the color set completely. Half your work is done here.
Blend the color outwards using your fingers or brush. Press it well to make the color last all day. You just have to touch up on your lipstick without bothering to re-do the base. For a neat finish and defined boundaries, use a red lip pencil. Apply the liner on the entire lips and not just the tips. Choose a lip liner that is close to your lipstick color or a shade darker.
Finish off the look with a gloss. Apart from sun protection, it adds some pout to the lips. Choose a red shade of gloss which doubles as a touch-up too. Always use the tip of the applicator to retain color instead of using the flat side.
