Lipstick Tip: Getting Soft, Natural Looking Lipstick

I think one of the things I love most, is the no-make-up look. It's hard to achieve because you need to strike just the right balance. One of my worst qualities is that I love, obsessively adore, and am a smidgen obsessed with lipstick. It's hard to stop overdoing the lipstick, especially when you want to stain your lips.

If like me, you have two toned lips and find lipstains almost impossible (scratch that, completely impossible) to work with as it makes the difference in the tones so much more noticeable, do not fear. To get a natural looking stain, you know the kind where it's guesswork on whether someone really does have on lipstick or not, I like to apply lipstick with an eyeshadow brush. I have a few eyeshadow brushes set away for this purpose. I love the effect I can achieve with this approach.
