Correction of the shape of the lips with makeup

Gentle, moist, inviting, sexy, sensual and it's all about our lips! But not everyone has perfect lips, some have drawbacks, and they do not want to put up with them. The help will come correction of the shape of the lips with the help of make-up.

Do not talk about the fact that the lips are always mobile, so the correction of the lips should be carried out with particular care. With a strong change in the size and shape of the lips, the facial proportions will look unharmonious. When correcting the lips, the ideal deviation is a value of up to 2 millimeters.

The lip correction begins with a dusting, it is necessary to do this so that the contour and the lip gloss or the lipstick applied later will be more resistant. Now let's see what shape the lips have, and also pay attention to their size.

If you have thin lips, then the first and most important thing to do is to increase their width. This requires a medium softness contour pencil of natural color, which one millimeter above the natural contour is drawn the desired shape of the lips. The lip contour should be more rounded. Do not use too bright or dark colors, as they will visually reduce the volume of the lips. It is better to use a peach, coral or muted dark pink color scheme, while it is best to take the eyeliner slightly darker, and lipstick is lighter, but approximately the same color.

Pearly lipstick or lip gloss, applied over lipstick, will give the delicate lips fullness. If the lower lip is too thin, then a little bit of a liquid shine should be applied in the middle of the lip.

With thin and long lips, the emphasis should be on the middle part. With the help of a pencil, we round the lips, but do not touch the corners of the lips. Then on the middle part of the lip lipstick or shine of a more saturated shade is applied.

If you have puffy, thick lips, then with the help of makeup they should be reduced. To do this, you need a liquid corrector or a contour pencil, which should be traced around the contour of the lips below the natural line by one millimeter. Here we use bright and dark colors of lipstick. In this case, the contour pencil is best to use a natural shade to maximally match the color of your lips. Thus, as if the natural border of the lips is erased, they become narrower. Lipstick bright colors can visually reduce the volume of the lips.

If you have asymmetrical lips (this is when the lower lip is wide, and the upper one narrow), then the task of correcting the lips is to equalize. To get the best effect, the area around the mouth should be slightly powdered. Now align the size of the lips, for this, draw the line of the upper lip slightly above the natural line, on the lower lip, draw a contour line so that the natural lip boundary remains lower by one millimeter. Lipstick is best to choose a slightly darkened, and over lipstick apply lip gloss. Thus, you will distract attention from the lines of the lips, and the difference between the upper lip and the lower one will not be so noticeable.

With the help of lipstick, you can visually reduce the size of the large mouth. To do this, when applying lipstick, do not touch the corners of the lips. On the corners of the lips should be applied a foundation of light shade. The color of the lipstick should be muted, gentle or shiny. Do not apply bright-purple or bright pink lipstick, it will only draw attention to the length and shape of the lips. We choose a natural color, while the lipstick should be a beige or light shade, the shine should be a dark pink or transparent shade.

But it happens also that long lips are added to the large mouth, then it is very difficult to conceal this defect, but it is still possible. And here the task of adjusting with makeup is to reduce the length of the lips. Therefore, when you make your lips, make sure that the contour line slightly does not reach the corners of the lips. Bright colors of lipstick should not be used at all with such lips, and dark colors of lipstick are not advised to use. In this case, the ideal color of lipstick or lip gloss will be beige - pink, dark pink or peach color, that is, those colors that match the natural color of your lips.

If you have small lips, the adjustment will help you increase them in size. To do this, the line of lips is rounded by a darkened liquid stroke and slightly, for 1-2 millimeters, extend the corners of the lips. Thus, we will get more oblong lips. Lipstick is also applied to the corners of the lips.

At the lowered corners of the lips (often asymmetry of the lips is observed, both in the direction of the lower and the upper lip), you can use a darkened corrector to correct it, which should round off the upper lip, retreating no more than one millimeter from the natural border. Then, from the upper and lower lips, round the corners of the mouth and paint this area with a contour pencil, as if "aligning" the corners of the lips: as you approach the corners of the mouth, you should press the line a little higher, leaving the corners unpainted. Lipstick is best used with pale pink shades with a flickering effect, this visually enlarges the lips and distracts attention from the adjustment. To distract attention, you can use the lip gloss, which is applied along the line of the contour pencil.

Upon completion of the adjustment, the excess lipstick is removed with a paper towel.
