How to Wear Matte Lipstick: The Best Beauty Guide

We can all agree that every makeup is incomplete without a good lipstick.
There are many lipstick textures that you can choose from. The most popular is definitely the glossy one, with the shimmer. These definitely stayed the longest on the beauty scene. But, last few years the matte lipstick took all the glory and became the new favorite for many many girls.

There are a lot of pros and cons about this type of lipstick. They look amazing on the lips, they have wonderful colors, and they stay longer on your lips than any other lipstick.
But, the biggest imperfection is that the matte lipstick dries your lips. That is why you should take these steps before you put on your favorite lipstick.

Gently Scrub Your Lips

This is the first thing you need to do. Using the soft toothbrush, do a very gentle piling of your lips. Some beauty experts are suggesting putting the Vaseline on and then brushing your lips.

Put Lip Balm

The second step is to moisturize your lips after you have done the piling. Just put on your favorite lip balm that you are always using, and that is it.

Trick: Use a Primer and Concealer

Using a lip primer will prevent the lipstick from bleeding. Concealer put on the rub of the lips will define the lip line, just before you put the lip pencil.

Using the Lip Liner

You should use the lip liner just along your lips line. Try not put it over the lips or under the lips line. If you were thinking about the color of lip pencil I will suggest using the same color as the lipstick.

And now: Lipstick

Finally, you can put your matte lipstick on. Be careful as they are much steadier than any other kind of a lipstick. When you put it wrong once, it will be very annoying to fix it later.
