Red is not dead and neither are women over 50! We know that sometimes crinkly lips just don’t take on bright color lipsticks very well but here’s some tips to get around that pesky little problem
RED lipstick is a statement, a confidence booster !
So, first let’s start with a lip primer. We like Anastasia-Beverly and its available at Sephora for around $16.00. Call it a blank canvas maker for your luscious lip color that you are about to put on. Put your lip primer around the outside edges and this will ultimately stop the bleeding of your lipstick to the surrounding skin area. Its okay to get some on the surrounding skin. Now let it dry completely.
To really do it right, apply a high quality lip stain. Yves St Laurent has a really good one in a matte finish. Then apply a couple of coats of your beautiful red lipstick and voila! Your lips not only look better but the color lasts much longer.
Next just apply your lip color -RED in this case! Now go and enjoy that yummy glass of wine, your lipstick will stay put for hours!
