Full Lips and Rosy Cheeks



{Lips}

Bigger, fuller lips have been recently viewed as a trait all women strive to have. Unfortunately, most of us, like myself, lack the those plump lips. However, contrasting a dark tone and light tone lipstick will give you the illusion of fuller lips.

In order to achieve, fuller looking lips first outline your lips with the dark tone lipstick. Leave the center of the bottom and lower lips bare. In those bare areas, apply your light tone lipstick. To blend either use your finger or lightly reapply your dark tone lipstick over the line between the light tone and dark tone lipstick.


{Cheeks}

 I've always found the rosy cheeks from the cold, winter wind to be pretty on every woman. To me, it gives an innocent and sweet appearance. For most of us, winter is coming to an end and this natural rosy glow will soon disappear until the next winter arrives. I recreated the winter rosy cheeks using a lip stain and light blush.

When choosing a lip product as a blush, I suggest using a lip product with a creamy formula so it will blend easier. I placed some product on the back of my hand and applied a little on my cheeks using my finger. It would be better to build on the color, rather then apply a lot on all at once. Especially, if it is a darker shade. Keep blending until you have received a shade that you like.
