Such a big no-no!!!

Ladies, can we talk about a giant pet peeve? It's called lip liner. Now, I don't have a problem with lip liner, per se. I even own several shades. What I do have a problem with is women either using a color that is nowhere near their lipstick or gloss shade thereby causing a GIANT obvious outline of your lips. Or, drawing the line outside ones lipline to attempt to make your lips look bigger. No. We all know it's liner. You're fooling no one.

So, if you do like/want to use lip liner, please make sure that you are using it as God intended. It is literally following the line of your lips. You then take a brush and BLEND the line inward to create a nice, soft edge. Finally, you apply your lip color and make sure that there are NO obvious breaks where you can see the line in any way. Lip liner's job is make sure your lipstick/gloss doesn't creep out past the lip line and to help the color stay adhered to the lip. Let's make sure it stays doing its job and we don't add extra, unnecessary responsibilities, shall we?
