What is the best way to apply red lipstick?

From bare lips to finish. I've always wanted to wear red lipstick but am intimidated by all the lip pencils, fillers, different types of lipstick, top coats, etc. What is the best way to do it and what products would you recommend?What is the best way to apply red lipstick?
Buff your lips with an old toothbrush or flannel so your lips are flake free


Maybe use the tiniest smudge of chap stick to work as a base.


If you want to, draw a faint line in lip liner on the natural line of your lip. Try to get the lip stick and liner very similar shades.


Apply one coat and blot lightly with tissue. Some people prefer to use a lip brush as opposed to putting the lipstick straight onto the lips. This means you get a gradual and even build up of colour.


Keep on applying and blotting until you get the shade you're looking for


Use a product such as Lipcote [which I highly reccomend] to make sure the colour stays.





Good luck!

Red lipstick tends to bleed a lot and get blotchy. The best thing to do is get a matte color in the red shade you like. Outline with a matching pencil first and then blot with pressed face powder. Fill in with lipstick and you're good to go.





Word to the wise-If your teeth are even a little bit yellowed, it won't be attractive at all.





Best of luck~

If you go to youtube, search for a girl named XSPARKAGE She has a really good tutorial called ';The perfect red lip tutorial.'; I think that would help a lot.
put a little chapstick on ur finger and mushy it all over ur lips. then line ur lips with either a red or tan liner. then apply a matt red lipstick and if u want, put a clear gloss over. TAAA DAAAA
