Sunday Pinup Tip: Beginnings (long lasting lipstick)

Good afternoon lovelies!

For today’s Sunday Pinup Tip, I thought I’d go back to the beginning with the first tip I ever posted, which was just a Facebook status, but its popularity lead it to become a regular addition to my blog. Today I’m going to be giving you the easy tip of how to make your lipstick last for a long period of time. This is a topic I receive emailed about quite frequently by new pinups on their journey to creating a look that most suits them. Red lipstick is the most iconic shade of lipstick for those wishing to emulate the 1940’s-50’s, but keeping it look good all day is the tricky part!

Simply apply your lipliner, apply your lipstick with a bullet brush, and then use a sponge with a little foundation powder to powder your lips, and re-apply your lipstick again! This creates more layers for sweat, food, drink, and anything else you encounter in your day to get through, I find this especially useful if I’m going out, have a photo shoot, or show!
