One thing about me: you’ll never catch me in a red lip. Or a berry one. Or a brown one. I am a pink girl through and through. For years, I was just a lipstick-and-go person, but now? I don’t leave the house without lip liner. I overline a little bit—overdrawing just in the center of my bottom lip, and all the way across my top lip. Then, I like to shade in my entire lips because it makes my lipstick or gloss last so much longer.
I have my technique down pat, but let it be known that I’m pretty picky about the formulas that make their way into my collection. My lip liners have to be smooth, creamy (there will be no tugging or dragging in my house), pigmented, and long-lasting. As for shades? I tend to gravitate towards cooler tones (it works better with my fair skin), but I play around in the pink universe with roses, peaches, mauves, and more. Here are my favorites—10 out of 10s only.
