There is no need to be confused about what lip liner to use.If you are unsure, match your lip liner and lipstick colors.Pick a liner that matches your lip color as close to it as possible.You can base your liner color on your skin tone.Pick a liner, apply it in small dashes starting at the center, and then put on lipstick.
Step 1: If you want a thin, precise line, use a lip liner pencil.
The creamy, rich texture of this lip liner makes it the most popular option.To outline your lip, use the tip of your pencil and the side of the pencil to color in it.Before each use, make sure you have a sharp tip.
Step 2: An easy, dark line can be achieved with a twist-up liner.
The liner has a twistable end that can be raised or lowered.No sharpening is required with this product.It has a pointed tip that works well to line the middle and corners of your lips.You will probably get a heavier application since twist-up liner is softer than pencil liner.
Step 3: If you want an easy application, use a crayon liner.
The liners have a bigger tip than a pencil.It's easy to apply a lot of color at once since the tip is larger.It's a great option for daytime wear because of the thick tip.There are crayon liners in both small and large sizes.Smaller liners give more control, while larger liners cover more area at once.A sharpener is included in most lip crayons.Before each use, make sure your crayon is sharp.
Step 4: For cool complexions, choose lip liners that are blue or purple.
If you have a bluish tint on your skin, you look best against silver jewelry.The purple or blue liners that compliment your skin tone are the best for you.When choosing a red lipstick, choose one that has a plum tint rather than an orange one.Light lipstick colors can make you look washed out.
Step 5: If you have warm skin, choose orange or red shades.
You have a warm skin tone if your complexion is golden, yellow or olive.Warm shades of lip colors, such as peach, salmon, and reddish orange, look the best.If you are choosing a pink lip color, choose one that is more peach rather than purple.
Step 6: If you have a neutral skin tone, experiment with different colors.
You have warm and cool tones to your complexion if you have a neutral skin tone.In this case, nearly any color looks good on you.You can pull off almost any shade with your lip liner color.You will look best in subtle shades rather than bold ones.Pick between red, orange, pink, peach, fuschia, and purple lip liner colors.
Step 7: Try a clear lip liner to keep lipstick in place.
If you don't want to apply a lot of makeup but still want your lip color to bleed, try a lip liner.Your lip color still looks great even though this won't add more definition to your lips.Instead of using a red lip liner, use a clear one.You get bold, brilliant lips without feeling like they are too full.
Step 8: For a seamless look, choose a liner that matches the color of your lipstick.
To make sure your lip color matches your lipstick, choose a shade that is as close to the lipstick color as possible.This is a good idea for your makeup routine.If you are using a rosy pink lipstick color, use a rose-colored lip liner.This is how your lips look.The outer edges of your lips will look more pronounced if you choose a dark lip liner.
Step 9: Pick a lip liner that is close to your natural shade.
It is okay if you do not have a lip liner in every color of your lipstick.Pick a liner that matches the shade of your lips.To ensure a neat, clean application, use this color with any shade of lipstick or lipgloss.If you pick a color that is close to your natural shade, you can make your lips look more supple and vibrant.Depending on your complexion, the liner may have a pink or brown hint.
Step 10: Nude shades can be used to create a plump, full look.
Choose a nude shade of lip liner, such as tan, beige, or peach.Use the natural color to create a border around your lips.You can wear nude lip liner without applying lip color to give your lips definition.If you want a minimal makeup look, this is a great idea.The neutral shade makes your lips large.
Step 11: If you want your lips to pop, choose a brighter shade of liner.
If you want your lips to be the focal point of your makeup look, pick a hue that is a bit brighter than your lip color.This is a simple way to make your lips bigger.Pick a bright fuschia if you are going with a pink lip color.Adding a second natural shade of lip color will give you a more natural look.If you want to blend your first shade with a lighter one, use your finger or a small makeup brush.You can apply a soft color to the center of your lip.Apply your bright shade to the outer edges of your lips.Lighter lip liners can make your lips look smaller.
Step 12: Pair white liner with bright lipstick.
Neon lips are in high demand.If you want to create them yourself, apply a neutral makeup or nude lipstick to your lips.Then, apply a bright lipstick along the outside of your lips from edge to center, leaving the neutral/nude shade visible on the inside.To divide the bright shade of lipstick into two parts, use a white liner and draw a line over it.The lip liner will divide your lips instead of outlining them.On either side of your line, you should have bright lipstick.
Step 13: 3 lip products are in the same shade family.
Line your lips and use the side of your pencil to color in your outline.Next, apply a dark lipstick to your lips with a brush.Next, apply a lighter shade of the same color to your lips.You can blend the lipstick with your brush.This creates an effect.It can start to look messy if you apply more than 3 different shades.A lipstick brush can be used to blend the colors together.
Step 14: The best place to hold the pen is at a 45 degree angle.
To apply lip liner, place the pencil at a 45 degree angle with your lips.As you draw your line, this gives you greater control.
Step 15: Light strokes are used to draw on the liner.
Short dashes across your upper and lower lips are a better way to apply the liner.This is how the liner looks.The line may look jagged if you apply the liner in 1 motion.
Step 16: Draw an "X" over your cupid's bow by starting at the center of your lips.
The center of your upper lip is where your cupid's bow is.You will mark it first if you want to create a defined bow.It is important to start at the middle in order to match the shape of your lip.Try to smile as you start.You can easily apply the liner by stretching out the skin of your lips.
Step 17: There are arrows at the corner of your mouth.
The corner of your lip should be the point of each arrow.The two lines that make the point are your top lip and bottom lip.It's easier to create an outline with this.
Step 18: To complete the outline, connect your arrows to your "X"
The edge of your lips will be connected to the center by a line on the top.You will do the same for the bottom after that.The way to make your lips look full and defined is this.
Step 19: If you want to create a bold look, apply lip liner first.
If you want your color to stay all day, you need a base of color.After you line the edges, fill in the rest of your lips with the liner.A base color that enhances the look of your lip color is provided by the waxy consistency of the liner.
Step 20: If you want a smooth, clean edge, put on lipstick before liner.
If you're worried that your lip color will look different, apply your lipstick first.Start from the center and work toward the corners.Do this for your lower lip as well.You should draw the liner on the edge of your lips.This smooths the lip color while lining your lips, which is helpful when going for a neat, polished color.
