Tired of lipstick transferring to your masks, mugs, and other items? It’s very inconvenient to have your lipstick disappear with every bite of food you take. Applying flawless and defined lipstick in the morning, and after a few hours, your lipstick has disappeared. While the coloured cosmetics industry is still on the rise, food has always been a nemesis to lipsticks.
Women have begun to devise methods for eating without ruining their makeup. While I am not opposed to making a strange face while eating (everyone does it), it is difficult to be mindful of how we eat and how it affects our makeup. While the makeup industry works on the formula for a better-than-ever, long-lasting lipstick, let us help you with a few tips and tricks for making your lipstick last longer without overdrying your lips.
Because lipstick is an essential part of our makeup routine, it is critical to find one that has good pigment, is suitable for Indian skin tones, is free of toxins, is suitable for everyday use, and, most importantly, is long-lasting.
Here are a few tricks up your sleeve that will help you make your lipstick last longer than usual:
This are 5 Ways to Get Lipstick Long-Lasting
1. Exfoliate and Hydrate your lips
It is critical to prepare your base for any vegan lipstick because having dry and flaky lips will reduce the longevity of your lipstick. Any lipstick has a tendency to get into the crevices of your lips, making your lipstick application patchy and affecting the overall appearance of your lipstick.
- You can buy a lip scrub at the store or make your own at home.
- Combine some brown or regular sugar, olive oil, and honey.
- Gently massage this mixture onto your lips, while the sugar granules scrub them and the olive oil hydrates and moisturises them.
- After 30–45 seconds of massaging, rinse your lips and apply lip balm to the freshly scrubbed lips.
Your lips have one of the most delicate skins on your body, and they require constant attention to avoid pigmentation and dryness. It is critical to invest in a high-quality lip balm to keep your lips healthy and hydrated. To protect your lips from harmful UV rays during the day, apply lip balm with an SPF. Constant UV radiation exposure can cause hyperpigmentation and discolouration.
We recommend Kiro’s Super Butter Lip Lacquers if you don’t like the lip balm look and want something with more high coverage and a glamorous shine while still keeping your lips safe, hydrated, and moisturised. They have a high-shine formula, are highly pigmented, and are infused with the goodness of five different kinds of butter to keep your lips healthy and hydrated, including Murumuru Butter, Mango Butter, Cupuacu Butter, Cocoa Butter, and Shea Butter. This lip lacquer can be used as a high-pigmented lip balm on a daily.
2. Prime your lips
After exfoliating and hydrating your lips, remove any excess lip balm to avoid damaging the matte lips with the oils in the lip balm. To prime your lips, apply a lip primer or concealer over and around them. This aids in the removal of any discolouration or hyperpigmentation. While you’re finishing up your base makeup, apply your foundation to your lips. This will fill all of the crevices and provide you with a smooth surface to work on.
3. Choose your lipstick.
Choosing primarily long-wearing matte lipsticks will provide you with a base that will last for hours. Unlike satin or gloss finish lipsticks, it will be transfer- and smudge-proof for a long time. Kiro’s Non-Stop Airy Matte Liquid Lipstick and Lush Moist Matte Lipstick, are available in a variety of shades that are designed to complement Indian skin tones. The Non-Stop Airy Matte Liquid Lipstick has a liquid formula and a hydrating matte finish to keep your lips hydrated throughout the day. While the Lush Moist Matte Lipstick comes in a creamy smooth bullet lipstick formula with a matte finish, the lipsticks are infused with natural ingredients and are suitable for everyday use. Start by applying the first coat of lipstick like you usually would.
4. Blot your lips
“Blot! Set! Go!” Since the use of lipsticks has increased for different occasions and looks such as party looks, office looks, date night looks, outdoor touring looks, and adventure looks, the demand for long-lasting lipsticks has grown. So, after applying your lipstick, blot it with thin tissue paper to remove excess oils from your lips. After blotting the first coat of lipstick, apply the second coat and blot once more. Keep the tissue on and apply some translucent, compact powder or your preferred setting powder. For example, use Kiro’s Botanico Timeless Matte Compact on a brush to set your lipstick. This technique can also be used to transform a satin finish into a matte finish.
