Lip Styles
All woman love lipsticks and how they enhance the sensuality of the lip.So, how does it work?
Lipsticks are composed of color pigments, shaping wax, and emollients or oils to moisturize and carry the color.
The five basic formulas of lipsticks are:
SHEER: Sheer ,also known as stains, tints , and glosses , contain minimal coverage .They're so sheer , you don't need a mirror to apply them.
SHIMMER: shimmer, formerly known as frosted, are more beautiful and subtle now . They look heavily metallic , pearly , or opalescent in the tube , but on lips, the coverage is soft and subtle.
CREAM: Amatte look without the heavy matte feel, creams contain more oils and conditioners than mattes, which makes them lighter .They're also known as moisturizing lipstick, hydrating lipstick, and lip rouge.
MATTE: Mattes last longest(except for long lasting lipsticks),because they contains most pigment and pigment makes a lipstick last. But mattes can be drying. Lighter mattes are known as demimatee or semimatee.
LONG-LASTING: Many works on time- release principle. The heat of the lip stimulates continuous release of color. Ingredients like porous silica seal it in, and cetyl octanate (common in foundation) makes it last.
Flavored lip gloss and moisturizing glosses are also desirable for a different twist. Shiny lip liners shape your mouth and make it easier to apply the lipsticks.
Lip Care
Make up for the lip always gets more attention than lip-care.This area needs contant attention because in this area, the outermost protective layer of the skin is very thin . The lips contain no sweat glands and very few oil glands. That is why they are prone to chapping and cracks, even leading to bleeding and infection in some cases.
The daily care for the lips involves cleansing, to remove all make up.Next, apply Shasmooth almond cream and leave it on all night. If you have dark lips ,Shasmooth will help.The lips are an extremely vulnerable part of the body, and lipsticks should provide protection.
A good lipstick will moisturize the lips and shield them from the sun without interfering with the final sheen or finish of the lipstick.
These days the most lubricious lipsticks contain moisturizers like:- Vitamin E
- Collagen
- Sunscreen
- Amino Acids
Women over 50 usually look better when they use cream lipsticks, rather than a matte or gloss style.
In a pinch your cream lipsticks can double as a blush.
Carry a stash of different lipsticks in daring shades in your purse for different occasions, outfits, and moods.
Beautiful Lips
Some of us have less perfect lips than others. But don't despair! There are plenty of tricks of the trade to help make your lips more balanced and beautiful. Some of the most effective solutions:
* The best lip color fixative? - A thin layer of Chap stick. The formula holds lip color like crazy as it heals and protects.
* Powder lips also gives lip color or gloss something to cling to for longer, smoother wear.
* For longer wear, blot lips after applying lipstick to set color and remove excess. Add a thin layer of loose or pressed powder, then apply color again.
* Turn down too much shine by holding a single-ply tissue to your lips and pressing a little loose powder through it - just enough will sift through the tissue to adhere to color and reduce the shine.
* Turn up the shine with a thin layer of clear lip gloss over lipstick or alone.
* For high-voltage shine and color, try a lip lacquer over lipstick or alone.
* For fuller, poutier lips, spotlight lip gloss right in the center of your mouth.
* Keep matte lip color from drying your lips - use a lip primer or lip color fixative before you apply the matte color.
* For evening special-effects, apply a sheer lip gloss in silver, gold or an iridescent shade over the lip color
