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!
