It’s holiday time, and lips make the look. If you’re heading to parties or dinners and want to make a showstopping, razzle-dazzle statement, you’re going to want to get your hands on these awesome lip tips and tricks that will have people remembering you long after the event is over.

Hot Lips Now!

The Perfect Nude — Do nude right with my quick, handy guide. Make sure the nude you choose is a shade darker than your skin. Fair skin? Try a nude-pink. Medium skin? You’ll want a nude with orange-y undertones. Those of you with deeper skin tones, choose brown-y, rosy, caramel nudes.

Get Red — Classic red lip? Excellent choice.  Fair skin, choose a red with blue-ish undertones.  Medium or olive skin will want those orange-y red and darker skins will find that burgundy reds suit them best!

Double Duty — In a hurry? Your pink lipstick can be your blush in a cinch. Use just a few light dabs in the apples of your cheeks and blend as you would any other cream blush.

Avoid The Oops — Never have lipstick on your teeth again with my handy trick! After application, stick your clean index finger on your mouth and wrqpnyoir lips around it. Twist your finger and pull it out. Sure, it looks pretty sexual. But if it avoids awkward, unsightly lipstick teeth, who cares?

No Creep Zone — Hate when lip color seeps amd crrps into the fine lines around your mouth? Avoid it altogether by applying a little concealer around the lips before your color. (Two layers of lip lines works, too!)

A Little Scotch — Avoid irritating your lips with scrubs while exfoliating. Instead, use a piece of scotch tape on dry lips to remove any dry bits of skin and oil before applying lip color.

Wrapping Up

With all you just learned, there’s zero reason why your lips shouldn’t be the hottest at any function you choose! Put the other lips to shame and rock it, bitch!
