Photos + post by amy nadine, graphic design by eunice chun How could I not share with our TBD family my favorite trick for keeping clients’ lip colors on all night, long past the red carpet? Some steps may seem a little odd, but they’ve worked for me for years, so I confidently know that they’ll work for you too. Here’s all you have to do: STEP ONE: Apply lipstick or matte lip pencil over the entire lip area. STEP TWO: Blot with a tissue by folding it in half, opening your mouth, placing it in between your upper and lower lips then pressing down.

STEP THREE: Load up an eyeshadow blending brush with loose or pressed powder {translucent works best and if you want to invest in the most finely milled powder that feels like silk, this one is my favorite}. STEP FOUR: Apply another layer of lipstick. REPEAT STEPS 2-4 and it should last all night. Related posts:
