How to hold your lipstick under the mask?

How to hold your lipstick under the mask? See the slideshow 13 photos This is a real question for those of us who cannot do without lipstick. Dimitri Theer, expert make-up artist for the Revlon brand, shares his tips for making it last until the end of the day despite the humidity and friction caused by the mask.

Lipstick, a collateral victim of the Covid-19* epidemic, does not however admit defeat and despite wearing a mask compulsory in most cities outdoors or in the workplace, the diehards do not haven't given up on it.

Mask and lipstick, a not impossible combo

But why persist in wearing it when no one sees it? Already, because most of us make up not for others, but for ourselves. Then, because putting a little color in our lives is simply good for our morale!

Another reason often given by skeptics of the lipstick/mask duo is that the product may smudge from humidity and friction. Error ! It won't happen if you use the right product and adopt a few pro techniques.

The right things to do to hold your lipstick under the mask

  • Make a gentle scrub to prepare the lips. Nothing could be simpler:mix a little honey and powdered sugar. Also, brands like Lush or Estée Lauder already offer ready-made ones. Apply the exfoliant to the lips and massage lightly in circular motions. Rinse with water.

  • Apply lip balm nourishing rich. Apply a thick layer and leave on for a few minutes, like a mask. Absorb the excess with a paper towel.

  • For optimal hold, draw a lip contour with a pencil , then color the inside of the lips. This will serve as a long-lasting color base.

Then, two options are available to us according to Dimitri Theer, expert make-up artist of the Revlon brand:opt for a liquid lipstick with a long-lasting formula or choose a "classic" lipstick. In this case, we opt for a matte formula that we apply to our lips before absorbing the excess material as much as possible with a tissue.

Another tip from make-up artist to keep in mind:you can apply a light veil of talc on the lips to create a top coat effect . Finally, we do not hesitate to make a touch-up during the day if the material has faded a little.
