Make Up Games and Your Lips


Lips are very much a part of make up games. When you go to put on make up, often the make up looks unfinished without a nice coating of lipstick or gloss. Finding the best lip covering is up to your overall look and the style of lip covering that you feel most comfortable with.

Lip Gloss – Lip gloss is a light covering that can be glossy and can, on occasion be sticky or gloopy if you use too much or use the wrong brand. Lip gloss looks great alone or with make up. Choose a pink or peach color to make your lips look great even without make up.

Lip Stick – A traditional lipstick is available in a huge range of colors, and the number of colors can make it hard to find the best one. Match your lipstick shade to your skin tones and the rest of your make up. If you wear oranges and browns, make sure your lipstick is in the same family of colors. If you use pinks and blues, your lipstick should be similar.

Lip Pencils – One option is to use a lip pencil to get some color on your lips without using a gloss or lipstick. The lip pencil might be a liner that is normally used just on the outside of the lips, or it can be a larger pencil that colors in the rest of your lips as well. Lip pencils tend to stay on well and not kiss off as easily as lipsticks or pencils.
