Color and shape your pucker to perfection. Try a bold red or
a sultry wine tone to bring out your inner vixen.
Or a pansy pink for girl next door allure. Our fave Soho
girl colors is CORAL. It adds a bit of “come hither” to an otherwise whatevs
day.
Regardless of what color you choose, perfecting the shape of
your lips is essential. You have got to rock the color and to do that you have
to apply a bold strong shape. No mushy smeared lines, because girl, that aint
sexy ‘til later…
THIS:
Get smooth. Don’t let flaky dry lips ruin the deal. Smooth
them out with a gentle lip scrub. Soften them with a moisturizing balm. Do this
on the regular so it’s a non issue.
Layers aren’t just for sweaters. Start out with a lip pencil
that matches your lipstick of choice. Line your lips then fill them in
completely. Add a layer of lipstick on top. If you really need to pump up the
staying power, blot with a tissue. Add another layer of lipstick. As a final
touch, add a small bit of matching gloss to the center of your bottom lip. Talk
about kissable!
Pointy? Round?
Sssshhhhhhhhhhhh! Here is a secret even your makeup artist might not know. You
can change the shape of your lips just by what direction you put your liner on
with. If you want a sexy, fashionista, pointy lip, you draw the top lip line
downward on each side. Then draw a small v in downward strokes in the center.
If you want a full, rounded, sultry bow lip you draw the line upward on each
side rounding all the way to the center.
Know where you are going. Will you get touch up breaks? Are
you eating? Long sweaty dance party? Pack accordingly. Don’t forget a little
foundation or concealer to touch up any bleeding as well as your lipstick,
pencil and lip brush. We would die without our SOHO Claws & Effects Organizer to carry our lip essentials.
Commit. Don’t punk out with some blah beigy mauve. If you
are gonna rock this, do it right. Pick a color that has a true pigment. Make a
statement. Mint green, lilac, turquoise, its all you. Get it.
X’s & O’s and remember to “keep it neat, FREAK!”
