Make Up Secrets
Experienced makeup artists recommend applying a few rules when applying plum lip paints:
- First of all, you should pay attention to the skin. To prepare it, a foundation, powder, foundation for make-up and other means to look perfect will come to the rescue. But if there are too many imperfections on the skin, the plum color of the lips will only aggravate the situation.
- Insufficiently white teeth will also look disadvantageous when using plum lipstick.
- The plum shade lipstick itself is very bright, so you should not make eye makeup bright as well. In this case, there is enough mascara for eyelashes and properly defined eyebrows.
- When creating an evening make-up, you can add arrows on your eyes to emphasize a beautiful shape. Arrows can be brought up with the corresponding shadows or pencil.
- Be sure to use a lip pencil that performs two functions at once: it helps to outline the contours of the lips and achieve a more stable makeup.
- If there is a desire to add volume to the lips, then a moisturizing balm will help here - with it the lips will look more feminine and fuller.
Limitations
Plum lipstick, unfortunately, has its own age limits. Therefore, not all women will look great using this rich color. For example, for women over forty-five it is better not to paint their lips with this color, so as not to look even older by about five to six years. Also, a deep shade can attract eyes to the wrinkles on the face and imperfect skin and indirectly emphasize them.
In addition, if a girl has blond or red hair, then plum lipstick is not the best option. It should be noted that often in photographs the color of plums on the lips looks much more spectacular than in everyday life. It is necessary to constantly monitor the perfect make-up and correct it all the time, since even the smallest mistake when applying such lipstick will be visible. In addition, this tool perfectly emphasizes the imperfections on the lips, if any.
