"Hello, my name is Jessica. I'm a licensed aesthetician for the last two years. I'm here today to talk to you about lipstick application. Choosing a liner to match your lipstick is very important, you do not want it to be a distinct line. Whenever you apply your lip liner, you want to make your lips taut, starting in the center top, taut, starting in the center on the other side, just a nice smooth line. Q-tips can always help you fix a line if you've made it go out, so do not panic. Finishing to go to the corners of the mouth and then you start on the bottom, again, starting in the center and moving your way out in one swift motion. And then to add the lipstick, again you would start in the center top, keeping the lips very taut will get you a better application. And then to apply the finishing lip gloss, it is always best to use a brush, plus that will help blend the rest of your lipstick and it will keep the crevices from happening in your lips also. On the lip gloss, it's best to start on the outside because you do not want it to be goopy in the middle or goopy and gentle strokes back and forth."
