There are plethora of options when it comes it lip colours.But what looks good on your friend’s or on favourite actress lips,does not necessarily mean it will suit you as well.While some are blessed with juicy pink lips,some are prone to some kind of pigmentation or discolouration on lips.So one must always try on the lip gloss and see if suits them and camouflages the discolouration.


3. Less is more!

Okay lets be practical,no lip gloss stays for an entire day.They all fade eventually and reapplication is required.One of the common mistakes of lip gloss is layering on the gloss which does not look natural or classy.One way to beat this problem is touch-ups every few hours.

4. Prep your lips

Some lip products tend to be very drying on lips and accentuate them and not in a good way.One might trying exfoliating by using a lip scrub or by using a  soft tooth-brush.Always apply a good lip balm before you start your make up.By the time you are done with rest of the make up, your lips will be soft and ready for a coat of your favourite lip gloss.


5)Applying Lip Gloss on a base
