How to Use
- Prep Lips: Exfoliate and moisturize to create a smooth base; blot any excess to avoid texture highlights
- Outline and Fill: Use the pencil tip to define your lip shape, then fill in the center for full coverage
- Build for Intensity: Apply once for a classic, refined red; layer for a deeper, more dramatic effect
- Optional Touch-Up: For sharper edges, use a lip brush or concealer around the lips to clean the perimeter
- Finish the Look: For longevity, gently press lips with a tissue to remove excess, then reapply a final layer
