 Consider your lips to be your best accessory. And lipstick is the perfect accessory for your lips. Think about how many pairs of shoes you have. How many purses. Even how many pairs of earrings. Now think about your lipstick. Remember that box of 64 crayons you had as a kid? Lipstick color is just as fun, now that you're all grown up. Choosing a shade can be a daunting task. You are always safe when you choose one shade darker than the natural color of your lips. But, lipstick can also change the mood of your face. So, when you get up in the morning, think about your day, the meetings you
have, the people you'll see. Make lipstick an important part of your makeup regime:
- If you plan to take a trip to the beach or hang out by the pool, be sure to drop a lipstick or lip balm in your bag before you go.
- In the wintertime, store an extra lipstick in your glove box of your car. (Just be sure to get it out before the summer months, particularly in climates that get above 80 degrees, or you will have a mess on your hands.)
- Put an extra lipstick in every purse you own. Not only will you be ready to be kissable, but you won't ever forget your lipstick when you change out purses. Now, some of us have more than our fair share of purses...so pick your top five.
- Add lip plumper to your evening makeup repertoire. Plumpers activate your lips and give the illusion of more fuller lips.
- Adding shine to your lips is another way of calling more attention to your smile.
- And, consider this, when you smile, your teeth affects the look of your lips. Try an over the counter whitener or use a whitening toothpaste.
- Always remember that a smile speaks a thousand words. And in this world of so much anxiety, laughter is the best medicine.
