How to Get Perfectly Lined Lips Every Time

From Good Housekeeping

Lip liner is one of those magical beauty tools that serves multiple purposes: It defines your mouth, helps your lipstick stay put, and can make your lips look more plump, should you so desire. The only problem is that it's a little daunting to use. But this trick is the easiest way to apply it perfectly every single time. We promise!


Step 1: Make an "X."

Right at your Cupid's bow, create an "X" with your lip liner.


Step 2: Draw line towards the corners.

From the top of each side of the "X," draw a line downwards to the corners of your mouth.


Step 3: Make a line on your bottom.

In the center of your bottom lip, apply a small line of lip liner.


Step 4: Connect the corners.

Draw lip liner from each side of the small line, connecting it to the corners. It's okay if it's not perfectly straight.


Step 5: Fill in your lips.

If you want your lipstick to last all day long, or if you simply love the color of your lip liner, fill in your lips and blot. Then, apply your matching lipstick and blot again.
