Classic Matte Bullet Lipstick

Description

A Classic Matte Bullet Lipstick delivers rich, full-coverage color with a timeless, velvety matte finish.

Step-by-Step Application Guide

1. Prep the Lips

• Exfoliate: Matte formulas can highlight dry patches. Gently buff your lips with a soft lip scrub or a damp cloth to create a smooth canvas.

• Hydrate & Blot: Apply a light coat of lip balm and let it sink in for a few minutes. Blot away excess balm with a tissue before applying lipstick so the matte formula stays long-wearing and opaque.

2. Define with Lip Liner (Optional but Recommended)

• Outline your lips with a matching lip liner.

• Focus on defining the Cupid’s bow (the “X” at the top center of your upper lip) and the center of the bottom lip.

• Pro Tip: Lightly fill in the rest of your lips with the liner to act as a color-locking base for your lipstick.

3. Apply the Bullet Lipstick

• Top Lip: Start at the center of your Cupid’s bow using the pointed tip of the bullet. Follow the natural contour of your top lip outward toward the corners.

• Bottom Lip: Sweep the bullet across the bottom lip from corner to corner using the flat edge of the lipstick.

• Press Gently: Press your lips together gently to distribute the pigment evenly.

Pro Tips for a Clean Finish

• Blot & Layer: For longer wear, press a tissue against your lips after the first coat, then apply a second thin layer.

• Clean the Edges: Use a flat concealer brush with a tiny dab of concealer or foundation to sharpen the outer perimeter of your lip line.
