How to apply LIPGLOSS over RED lipstick

Watch my 59 seconds video on how to apply lipgloss over RED lipstick! 

You might wonder why it's different to the usual method of applying lipgloss, but you have to be careful when your applying BOLD shades like red, orange, hot pink etc.. 

Firstly, these bright shades must be applied with a steady hand, preferably with a lip brush because they draw crazy amounts of attention! If you make a mistake, it will definitely show! It's not as forgiving as lighter lip shades!


The key point to note- apply lipgloss only on the centre of your lips, to the inside rather than the edges of your lips. Stay within the centre of your lips! 

What I wore on my lips:
1. M.A.C Cherry Lip Pencil
2. M.A.C Ruby Woo Lipstick
3. M.A.C Clear LipGlass

You can substitute these products for other makeup brands!! :) 

I've used M.A.C Clear LipGLASS because it's amazingly reflective and literally gives a glossy-glassy finish! It has no shimmer, it's super smooth and gives a wet sexy look! A little goes a loooong way, make sure to take extremely little!! But beware- it is very sticky!! (Strands of my hair gets stuck to my lips! :/ ) 

Hope you enjoyed this super quick tip!! (Apologies for the background noise, I wasn't planning on making a video- spontaneous decision! :P

P.S- The video ends with a picture I took for Women's Day. Click here to have a look!

Lots of love,
