a peach is a pêche pout
Growing up, I saw that my mother wouldn't leave the house without her lipstick on. Her lipstick was all she needed. I'm serious, she didn't even put mascara on (gasp), but she was gorgeous and is still beautiful as ever. I always wanted to wear lipstick, but I used to feel like a clown when I put on loud lips or I would accidentally color outside the lip line. Here comes trusty Mr. chapstick. I still use chapstick, but now I can confidently say no clowns here!
This is where the universal crowd pleaser comes in - lady peach.
She's perfect for every skin tone and works well with transitional weather. Use your skin undertones to choose your hue and brighten your day. Fair ladies can pick up a soft tone, olive and golden chicas can get saucy with a warmer or bold lip. Let's be honest though, who follows rules these days. I tend to go bold or go home.
Let's talk about application.
There are three simple steps to get that sexy matte pêche pout.
- Make sure your lips are clean and smooth. If they need moisture, apply a light amount of ointment such as Aquaphor and remove the excess with a cotton pad. Dab your daily concealer or tined moisturizer on to your lips to completely cover them and create a base for your next product.
- Line the edge of your lips with lipliner that is close to the color of the lipstick you are going to apply and then fill your lips with that same liner.
- Color in your lips with your lipstick and Voila!
