You're really excited about this new lipstick that you've purchased. You're so excited that after 4 swipes you look like a clown, or like you rode in the car over a bumpy road while applying, or you've glossed it to hell and have fried chicken mouth. Now you can just take it all off or you can try your best to fix it. Here are a few ways you can fix your lipstick when it's gone awry.
Blotting
In general I don't blot, and it usually works for me. However, if there is just too much color, too much gloss, or just too much too much, blotting picks up the excess.
Q-tips
I always keep q-tips in the bathroom because they have tons of uses. Using a q-tip to clean up corners and my Cupid's bow keeps me from looking skid marked. If your lipstick is especially budge-proof, dip the q-tip in makeup remover to get super clean edges. You can also use q-tips in combination with concealer to clean up edges.
Keep It on Your Lips Not Your Cup
So I read this tip a while ago and thought it sounded ridiculous until I tried it. It actually does work. To keep your lipstick on your mouth instead of your wine glass lick the rim (no not the tip, nasty) the rim of the glass. Your saliva will create a barrier and help keep your lipstick from transferring
Lips Should be Red, Teeth Should be White
To keep your lipstick off of your teeth, make your mouth into an O put your index finger in and pull it out. Any excess lipstick will be on your finger and not on your teeth.
