Principles of using lipstick you must remember

To use lipstick correctly, you must remember the following principles.

Start with lip care.

Use lip balm regularly to keep your lips soft.

Make it a habit to exfoliate your lips 1-2 times a week. It's very simple: mix white salt with olive or almond oil, apply the mixture to your lips, gently scrub, leave it on for a while, then rinse with water. Use lip balm regularly. Soft lips will give you a youthful look no matter what lipstick color you use.

The right time to apply lipstick

Lipstick: Ideal for evenings, work, or anytime you want.

Lip gloss: On weekends or evenings, when you want to look more mysterious (smoky eyelashes paired with plump lips give you a regal look).

Amount of lipstick applied

Lipstick: Apply sparingly to maintain a natural lip contour, as lips tend to become less defined as you age.

Lip gloss: Lip gloss fills in the cracks on the lips. Just apply a layer of lip gloss to the center of the lower lip for a more sensual look, says makeup artist Pati Dubroff.

How to apply lipstick

There are no hard and fast rules about using lipstick. Some women choose a brush to apply it. I own one too and have never used it. Others use their middle finger to apply lipstick. However, most women use lipstick in stick form and apply it directly. Either way is fine, as long as you choose a color that suits you and makes you look pretty.
