Lately, I've been unhappy with how quickly my lipstick wore off. I hear all the time that liners help lipstick stay on longer. I decided to give it another go and dang! What a difference it makes!! I'm guessing when I tried them in the past, I had no real idea what I was doing. I would only put the liner on the rim of my lips, and sometimes even right outside my lips to make them appear fuller. My lips just looked swollen...yeah, FAIL. This time around, I apply liner all over my lips and wow! My life has changed! **Cue Aladdin's "A Whole New World"
Current liners:
From top to bottom:
Essence 08 Red Blush
Essence 07 Cute Pink
Stila Charming
Jordana Tawny

My favorites are Essence in Cute Pink and Jordana in Tawny. I finally know what all the hype is about with Jordana's Tawny. It's a beautiful color and even looks great independently - pretty natural. This color was sold out in all Walgreens near me. I found Tawny in a suburb about 30 miles away from home where I was visiting a friend.
My least favorite is Stila's Charming. It is just way too light for my lips. However, it does act as a base for my lipstick to hold on to.

I have never been one to mix lipsticks or colors. Before I didn't really know how or why I would do that. Using liners has allowed me to play with lipsticks and colors. I love it! Look for a future post for my current go-to lip combos. Stay tuned :D

I just recently find out about applying lip liners all over my lips (I do random dots on my lips) and not just the rims. This help me also used wide ranges of lipstick color that I wouldn't have used in the past.
