I'm going to use a lip liner on my model, just to kind of accentuate her lips. Her lips
are very petite and I just want to draw them in and fill them in and make them a little
more puffy. Just give them the effect that they're a little bigger and more pouty. And
so I'm going to use, I don't want to see the lip liner. I want to use a neutral color.
So I'm going to use a really neutral pinky nude. Something that's almost skin tone or
lighter than skin tone, just to accentuate the lips and not to add any color. We just
want to kind of make the lips look a little bigger and to fill them in so that the lip
gloss stays on longer. So I'm going to start out on the bottom lip and just kind of draw
the line a little bit underneath her natural lip line, just a teeny tiny bit. We don't
want them to look substantially bigger, but just give them the effect that they're a little
bigger. I'm also going to fill in the entire lip with the lip liner and that's going to
prevent the lip gloss from bleeding and it's just going to take away the natural lip color
so we see more of that gloss. Little by little, you just want to kind of fill in the lip and
overdraw the lip line a tiny bit. Just overdraw a tiny bit, not a lot. Be patient. Just really
line the lip nicely and overdraw it just a tiny, tiny, tiny bit. Then fill it in. Like
I said, this is a very neutral color. We don't want to see this lip liner. We're just going
to draw it in and then put the gloss right on top, so we don't want to see the lip liner,
it's not the look we're going for: the Lip Line look.
