When it comes to beauty products that can instantly reboot your mood, lipstick is at the top. However, that feeling can come crumbling down if that lipstick smudges or simply dissipates a moment after it’s applied. According to founder of Melbourne-based lipstick brand Shanghai Suzy, Joanna French, there’s a simple trick to ensuring your lippie stays put.
“Apply two coats of lipstick directly from the bullet, blotting once with a good old fashioned tissue (to avoid lipstick on the teeth), and then finishing with a top coat which acts as a ‘seal’ to make the lipstick go that extra mile,” Joanna tells news.com.au.
The condition of your lips could also be to blame for your recently applied lippie vanishing. “It helps when lips are in tip-top condition prior to applying the lipstick, dry flaky skin is going to affect the way your lipstick wears,” Joanna says. “Softly wipe the lips with a wet face washer prior to application, which gently exfoliates and creates a soft, clear canvas. You’ll find your lipstick coverage is more even and the colour wears longer.”
Now that you’ve got application sorted, here are 11 best-selling lipsticks worth adding to your makeup bag.
Don’t be fooled by how dark it looks this lippie gives wearers the perfect pink pout, with shoppers saying they “can’t get enough” of the “so pretty” shade.
