How To Make Your Lipstick Last Longer

Time for a wee makeup tip that everyone really should know and apply on those times you want to enjoy your day/night and not have to worry about having to constantly pull out your compact and lipstick and reapply. Because no one has time for that shit.

This one is simple and while it does take some extra effort on the application part but it really does make your lips last a lot longer than just putting on one layer.

1. Grab your lipstick and apply a layer of lipstick
 2. Moosh your lips thegither for a good 30 seconds/minute or so. This lets the colour really get into the lips and helps create a stain on them.

3. Blot with a clean tissue
4. Apply another layer of lipstick/Moosh/Blot.
5. Apply/Moosh.
6. Then grab a fluffy brush, translucent powder and a split in half tissue. Place the tissue and place it over your lips. Take some powder and gently pat it over your lips.
Voila! Your lips are now ready to go.

I know that seems a bit overkill but I think the combination of thin layers and setting with a powder lets you build up the colour without having loads of extra moisture on the lips.

If you try this out then let me know!
