Lipstick may seem easy to apply when it comes to makeup, but there are specific methods to use so that your lip color will last all day long. Here is the help you need from my wedding makeup San Antonio experience!

Start out by applying a moisturizer or lip conditioner to your lips, and allow it to absorb completely. Next, use lip liner to outline the edge of your lips. It is not advised to outline outside of your lips to make them appear larger because it will look unnatural. It is best to use a lip liner that complements your lip color shade for the most accurate application.

Apply a matching lip color to a lipstick brush, and brush the color from the outside of your lips inward. The color should meet in the middle of your lips, and remove any excess color with a Q-tip or sponge.

Finish by blotting the lip color on a tissue, and then apply one more light coat of the lipstick. If you would like a glossy look, then add a sheer gloss to perfect your pucker!
