Product Tips for Luscious Lips!

One of my New Year's Resolutions is to continue to focus on my skincare regime and look and feel great! I just finished a series on 7 tips to Luscious Lips and want to thank everyone for their wonderful feedback and input! One reader even emailed me and told me that after she followed my easy olive oil/brown sugar exfoliation tip, she applied some sexy red lipstick for a date night with her hubby and apparently all night he kept telling her how incredibly sexy her lips were! You go girl!

I did receive questions about specific lip treatments and products. I will continue this series to give some tips about lip products that will also help to make your lips their most luscious and sexiest ev-ah!

Product Tips for Luscious Lips:

This is the sixth in a series on Product Tips for Luscious Lips. I will try to avoid specific product or brand recommendations, as there are countless products that can address most of these tips. Instead, my intent is to focus more on the product/technique to show you how each tip can help you create more luscious lips with any brand of your choice!

Luscious Lip Product Tip #6:

Use a lip stain for deep, dramatic color.

I love to use lip stains, as some will create a very saturated color. The color tends to appear a bit more like a natural color of your lips, as lip stains can be intense and will remain long after a lip gloss you applied over it wears off.

There are a variety of applications, and I tend to like the applications that don't involve using your fingers. I have actually found some to stain my finger tips as well!

Lip stains can be a bit more dry, so again, it is a great idea to apply a primer first to seal your lips. Or, finish with some moisturizing lip gloss. Some contain alcohol which helps the stain to dry quickly and to "pull" the color into your lips. If you have sensitive lips, a lip stain may not be an option for you.
