Prep Your Lips

Lips need to be moisturised before applying any lip colour, especially when applying a red shade as it is a highly pigmented colour. Using lip balms or moisturisers that are too greasy or heavy might absolutely break your look. A light hydration is what our lips need before applying such colours and for that you do not need to go overboard.

Choose The Correct Shade

Know your undertone before purchasing any red lip shade for yourself. We might think sometimes that red lipsticks might not seem nice on us but that's just a misconception. All you need to do is pick the right shade according to your skin undertone.

Conceal It

After applying the lip shade, make sure you apply concealer around the lips wherever required for a clean and neat look. It will not only give a perfect finish but also amp up the colour. Red lipstick tends to draw a lot of attention to your mouth area and to give an appealing and flawless impression, it is necessary you make it look clean by using a concealer at the end to fix it.
