Keep Your Lips from Ghosting You
Effortless pout, all day behind the scenes.
We’ve all been there—fly lip in the morning, mostly gone by lunch. So annoying. But here’s the thing: long-lasting lips aren’t about the lipstick, they’re about the prep.
Pros actually use eye cream—not lip balm, not chapstick. Eye cream soaks in, moisturizes, and stays matte, giving you a smooth base for color. Gently exfoliate your lips with a scrub or a soft toothbrush, then swipe on a thin layer of eye cream and let it sink in for a few minutes. Blot any excess. Smooth, hydrated lips = smooth, long-lasting color.
Pro tip: After your lipstick is on, press a tissue to your lips and dust a tiny bit of translucent powder over it. It locks the color in without looking cakey. This combo will get you through coffee, lunch, and even happy hour with minimal touch-ups—and no mask mishaps.
