How to Successfully Wear Bold or Dark Lipstick
Do you have a specific process or any tips for applying a bold lip? Any dead skin on my lips takes the stain and creates ugly dark spots, and I can’t seem to apply liner that looks natural, symmetrical, and that follows the line of my lips. I’m wondering if you use a lip conditioner…
