I recently just went out and bought my first lip liner. Although I have not seen the effects that Kylie Jenner claims to have had; it does bring a little more attention to your lips. It helps to make them appear slightly more full and to give achieve that “pouty” look. When picking out a lip liner it is important to go with a shade that is closest to your natural lip color. I would recommend going to a makeup store where you can actually try it on (especially if it’s your first time using this product), such as Sephora or Mac. They will help you pick out the perfect shade. You may pay a little more for the product, but you will leave being happy with your purchase!
The application of lip liner is pretty simple even for beginners. You simply line the outside of your lip; depending on how dramatic you want this look to be, is up to you. The more you exaggerate the natural shape of your lip, the more dramatic the results. Once you have lined your lips, add some clear lip-gloss. Or if you are going for more of the Kylie Jenner look, pair it with a matte lipstick in a natural shade. This will help to complete your look! With this simple trick will bring a little more attention to your lips. Whether you are doing a dark smokey eye or a something more natural, this technique will only help to give you that completing touch! Happy lining!
