A red lip is always in style, especially during the holidays. The trick is making sure it stays in place through hors d’oeuvres, champagne toasts and everything in between. Neroli Salon & Spa Hair Designer and Aveda PUREfessional, Dez has all the tips to keep your festive red lip all night long.

Product:



Step 1: Start with a clean, dry lip.



Step 2: Apply a lip definer, or colorless pencil on the outside of lips. I used Aveda’s lip definer colorless pencil on the outside of the lip. Then fill in.

Step 3: Apply a powder foundation of choice around the outside the lip and sweep in towards the lip, making a frame. I chose Aveda’s Inner Light Translucent Powder.

Step 4: Start applying a red lip liner. Apply liner starting from the outside and working in towards the center, moving slow. Work from the other side toward the center. Refining the bowtie as you go.  Then move to the bottom, also working from the outside in.

Step 5:  Fill in with your lip pencil.

Step 6: Apply lipstick lip color of your choice to the inside of the lip using the lip definer lip brush.

Step 7: One last time, sweep your powder foundation toward the lip using a blending brush. Making sure not to smear the color, blend in the foundation surrounding the lip.
