How to Choose Right Lipstick?

Do you want to learn how to choose a right shade and application technique of lipstick? Have you ever wondered how many women some women look stunning by just wearing a glossy lipstick? The simple trick is selecting a lipstick that goes well with your skin tone, shapes of your lips and right application.
When selecting a lipstick you should consider three things; natural color of your lips, type of your attire and color of the lipstick itself.
Always go for a creamy lipstick which has a touch of matte. It looks elegant and stays for a few hours.
If your lips are dry, peeled or cracked, make sure you softly exfoliate your lips with the toothbrush which will remove any dry skin. Also apply a lip balm as a base of the lipstick to moisturize your lips. You can also apply a foundation on your lips for a smooth finish.
Apply the lip liner before your lipstick. Women who have thick lips should draw the line on the inner edge of the lips, while women with thin lips should draw the line from outer side.
Now pick the right color of lipstick that works best with your skin tone. You can use a good brush to apply the lipstick. Apply a thin coat but few coats on your lips. Blot out the excess oil of your lips with the help of a tissue paper.
Apply a little amount of your compact powder over the lips to give a matte finish. You can also apply lip gloss to make your lips glossy.
