How To Apply LipSense

• For best results, LipSense® products must be applied to clean, dry lips.

​

• LipSense® needs to be shaken horizontally prior to application.

LipSense® is applied by using a layering technique. Here is how to apply LipSense®:

​

Step 1: After placing color onto the wand, begin application at the corner of mouth, (usually) using the longest length of the applicator. Keep lips apart, and follow the natural shape of lips starting at the outer corner of the mouth. With one continual stroke, apply one layer of color from one corner to the other corner of the bottom lip, then one layer of color to the top lip. Apply the color, moving the applicator in one continuous direction versus going back and forth like you would with lipstick.

​

Step 2: Repeat Step 1 two more times, so that you have a total of 3 layers of LipSense® applied to your lips. Let each layer set for a few seconds before proceeding to the next, and do not press lips together. It is not recommended to apply more than three layers of color.

​

Step 3: When the application of the third layer of color is complete and the color has set, apply one of the LipSense® Moisturizing Glosses over the final layer. Do not press lips together until the moisturizing gloss has been applied onto the last layer of lip color. After applying the gloss, press your lips together to smooth in the moisture rich gloss and enjoy the glorious look and feel of this long-lasting, advanced color technology!

How To Create Winged EyeLiner

Step 1: 

Put on some eyeshadow, if you wish. If you want to use eyeshadow, it’s best to do it before you apply your eyeliner. Otherwise, your liner may get smudged and messy when you try to apply the shadow.

• Unless you’re going for a dramatic evening look, you may wish to keep your eyeshadow subtle when you use it in combination with a winged liner.

​

Step 2:

Apply pencil eyeliner to your upper lash line. Use a light pencil eyeliner to draw a thin line as close to your upper lash line as possible. The line should be as thin as possible. This acts as a base for your winged eyeliner.

• Start from the inner corner of your eye and work toward the outer corner. Stop at the end of your lash line.

• The line does not need to be especially neat at this point, even though it should be thin. You will end up going over the line again, so a little roughness will not make much difference at this point.

• Keep your eyelid as flat as possible while doing this. If necessary, tilt your head back and just barely keep your eye cracked open as you apply the liner.

• Use the pinky finger of your non-dominant hand to hold your eyelid taut while you apply the liner.

• Instead of trying to apply the liner in one continuous line, draw a series of dashes. It is much easier to apply this way.

​

Step 3:

Measure how far out the wing should go. Hold your eyeliner pencil at the end point of your bottom lash line. Point it upward diagonally so that it looks like a continuation of your lower lash line.

• The line will extend diagonally up and out.

• If you have a hooded eyelid, you may need to angle the wing more outward than upward to avoid the hooded part of your lid.

• To get the right angle for your wing, visually trace a line from the outer edge of your nostril to the outer corner of your eyebrow.

​

Step 4:

Draw a thin diagonal line out to act as the wing. This line should roughly match the guideline you visualized when holding the liner pencil against your eyelid. In other words, it should almost look like an extension of your upper lash line.

• Before you start, make sure you have a mirror around. Also make sure your elbow or arm is on a stable surface. This allows for more control over creating your wing!

• Begin at the very tip of the eyeliner line drawn above your upper lash line.

• Draw a diagonal line roughly 45 degrees out and up. The line should be heading in the general direction of the end of your eyebrow.

• The length of the wing is up to you. A subtler winged eyeliner look should have a short line at this point, but a more dramatic one can extend up to just below your brow bone. Never extend it all the way up to the eyebrow itself.

​

Step 5:

Make a straight line from the tip to the middle of your eyelid. With your eyelid as flat and taut as possible, draw a straight diagonal line from the very tip of the wing down to the middle of your upper lash line.

• Keep the eye closed as you do this. Watch with the eye you are not currently working on.

• Put the pointer finger of your non-dominant hand on your brow bone. Pull the upper lid slightly upward to keep it taut.

• Draw the wing lines using your dominant hand.

​

Step 6:

Fill in the outline. Use your pencil eyeliner to fill in the winged outline you just created until all the skin between the lines is covered.

• This does not have to be especially thorough if you plan on tracing over the pencil eyeliner with liquid liner later on.

• Fill in the eyeliner as close to the eyelashes as possible to avoid gaps of skin peeking through. The idea is to blend your eyelashes into the eyeliner.

​

Step 7:

Thicken the line at the inner eyelid. To make it appear as though the wing is getting thinner naturally as it goes into the eye, use short strokes of your eyeliner pencil to smooth out the corner between the end of your wing and the liner on the upper lash line.

• The eyeliner should be its thinnest at the innermost corner, but it should appear as though it is gradually getting thinner in this direction.

How To Do A '5 Minute Face'

This will look different for everybody! You need to prioritize what products are most important for you. I suggest picking 5. My 5 go-to products are as follows: 

​

• Color Correcting Tinted Moisturizer - I like to always have our CCTM on because it evens out my skin tone and takes away my redness. I feel more put together if I have a layer of light coverage on my face.

• Blush - I always wear blush because it gives my face some color. In the winter, I am as pale as a ghost, so taking 15 seconds to apply blush to my cheeks is so worth it. 

• ShadowSense - I will always wear shadow. If I am doing a '5 Minute Face' I will pick 1 color and apply it to my lids. Shadow colors make my eyes pop and make me look more awake, and that is something that I want daily. 

• Mascara - Mascara defines the eyes. It lifts and curls my eyelashes and makes me look put together and ready to tackle the day. I will never leave the house without mascara on. 

• Gloss - Gloss is my last staple product for a '5 Minute Face.' It adds a bit of color and shine to my lips, pulling everything together. I carry a gloss around in my purse at all times and it takes 10 seconds to apply! 

​

These are the 5 products I consistently use for my '5 Minute Face.' Depending on what your staple products are, it can and will look differently.
