Where's My Lipstick?!

One of the biggest challenges for Brides is keeping their lip color on the day through!  S&C Artists always recommend carrying a "touch up" color with you - Whether you're a cherry chapstick girl, gloss, or stick, having your favorite color on hand will be a lip-saver!

For those of you wanting a long lasting color, we have tricks for you!

Trade Secret numero uno:

Apply pressed powder to your lips, & follow with full coverage of the entire lip with lip liner,  finish with gloss, chapstick, or lipstick for added va-voom!

TS dos:

Use a "long wear lip color" or use a "lip stain" - The formulas have drastically improved since their beginnings! I can remember being in terror when my "long wear" circa 1998 dissolved away in the center of my lip, and left me looking like I had (only) red lip liner on the rest of the night!  Those days are over, I recommend:  S&C Long wear lip creme (color on 1 side, clear gloss on other ) and for a kiss of color, I love Benefit's "Benetint" - It's like having crushed rose petals on your lips!

TS Tres:


Use a Primer!  It's true:  From foundation, to eye shadow, to lipcolor, there's a Primer for all of your beauty need!.  I recommend Urban Decay's "Lip Primer Potion" - Think of it as a "clear" lip pencil with hydrating ingredients!
