A girl never should kiss and tell...

One of the biggest make-up mysteries out there is the mystery of how to keep color from disappearing the second they hit your lips! Well, mystery solved. And I'm going to tell you how in a few simple steps.

Step 1. Take any cream based concealer that matches your skin tone and paint it on and around your lip area. This should act as a primer for your lips filling in any fine lines surrounding that area of your face.

Step 2. Frame your lips with a nice strong line around it's border and then lightly fill your lips in with that same liner. This will act as a glue for whatever color you place on top of it.

Step 3. Color your lips in with a lip color of your choice. Keep in mind matte textured lipsticks have the strongest lasting amount of longevity.

Step 4. Apply any gloss color of your choice. Keep in mind though, any product with a slippery texture will increase the color underneath to slip quicker.

By following these easy steps you are bound to find that your lip color will last significantly longer then if you simply apply and go! Reapplying will need to take place but not nearly as often.

And being that a girl should never kiss and tell....pucker up as much as you want. Your lips will still look amazing and your secret will be safe with me!
