Alex’s Tips: How To Do The Perfect Red Lips

1. Starting by applying a blue-based lipstick with a brush.

2. Use a lip pencil to fill in the shape and blend for a no-lined look.

3. Blot once with a tissue and reapply the lipstick.

4. Top with a clear gloss, applying more on the bottom lip to create the illusion of fuller lips.

5. Clean up the edges with a brush dipped in concealer. Voila! Hot red lips!

    Alex did not do all of my makeup. He used the L’Absolu Rouge in Berry Noir my lips and darkened my crease with the Color Design Eyeshadow in Faux Pas.

    I’m wearing MAC’s Mineralize Satinfinish Foundation in NC25 and Barbara Daly Concealer in Warm, set with MAC Select Sheer Pressed Powder in NC30.
