Make-up,
if done with care can serve as a great way to highlight the lips.
Small Mouth with Small Lips :
These are easily corrected by taking the lip liner pencil outside the
natural lip line. Work slowly and steadily to form a perfect shape. Fill in
with primer and finally with the lipstick. A highlight of frosting on the
upper lip would also create an impression of fullness.
Large Mouth with Full Lips :
Apply liquid foundation makeup to the entire mouth, then outline with a dark
shade of lipstick just inside the natural contours of the mouth. Then apply
lipstick of a lighter shade carefully and accurately within this outline.
Subdued shades work well for this kind of mouth. Use medium toned lip colors
and avoid dark browns, plums and electric bright or pale shimmer shades.
Full Upper Lip :
Apply fluid foundation makeup to the upper lip. Outline just inside its
natural contour and apply a dark shade of lipstick. Then outline the lower
lip just outside its natural contour and emphasize by filling in with a
lighter shade of lipstick.
Full Lower Lip :
Outline upper lip just outside its natural contour. Apply a light shade of
lipstick and in the center add a touch of lip-gloss. Apply fluid foundation
makeup to the lower lip. Outline just inside its natural contour. Then fill
in with a darker shade of lipstick, using a lip brush.
Wide Mouth :
Cover the corners of the mouth with foundation makeup or a cover stick.
Apply lipstick with a lip brush, stopping a few millimeters before the
corners of the mouth are reached.
