How to tone down bright lipstick

Thursday, 28 July 2016
Hey Guys!

One of my favorite things about summer is the amazing lipstick shades. I love nudes but it is always fun to change it up with bright shades. I will admit, I am not always wanting the bold pigment on my lips, but I love the shade. I have spent the past year or so trying to figure out a solution. I did everything I possibly could until I found this solution.

I know the photo quality isn't the best, but you can all see a difference.

Steps
Start with bare lips. I have seen suggestions that you should use a setting powder on your lips, but I used a cream concealer on me to neutralize them.

 Then I used a nude lipstick on top. For this example I used L'oreal Paris Nude collection in 'Eva's Nude'

Then I used Covergirl Lipstick in the shade 'Spellbound' on top. (Refer to 'after' picture)

I have done this with drugstore and department store lipstick's and it is amazing. The lipstick is long lasting and the pigmentation is amazing.
