To apply liquid matte lipstick evenly, start with smooth, balm-free lips, outline the edges with the applicator tip, fill in with a thin layer, and let it dry before adding a second layer if needed. Thin layers are the key; thick layers can look patchy or feel heavy.
Prep
- Make sure lips are smooth.
- Apply balm earlier, then blot it off before lipstick.
- Line lips if you want extra precision.
