How to Get Pretty with Pink Lips:

2. Apply lipstick with fingers or with lip brush
3. Keep it light for a more youthful look: do not layer color too much
4. Dab gloss on the center lower lip; this helps lips look more supple and plump

Pink shades can heat up your skin color and emphasize red skin tones. Make sure you pick a color that is flattering to your skin. Also, keep in mind that this color sharpens facial features, so be weary if you have thin lips or a sharp nose (opt for paler pinks in a gloss version). Pucker your lips, and kiss in this seductive shade.
