One of the best substitutes of lipliners are lipsticks and lip brush. It’s easier to outline the lips with a lip brush instead of straight from the lipstick. It’s easy to forget things when you’re in a rush or you’re just plain forgetful. Well, if you still want to have the perfect lip make-up even if you forgot to bring your lip liner, don’t fret. Here are a few things that you can do if your most trusted lipliner didn’t make it to your make-up kits. Method 1: Drawing a line using a brush or lipstick Step 1: Use a brush to apply your lipstick. A pointed brush is best since you’ll be able to control it. You’ll be able to create cleaner lines using a brush. Step 2: Dab a small amount of lipstick onto the brush. If you use a lot then it will look messy. Step 3: If you don’t have a brush, use the tip of the lipstick itself to line your lips. Step 4: Draw like how you apply your lipliner. Make sure to follow- your natural lip line so that it will not look exaggerated. Method 2: Use to shades of lipstick Step 1: Select a darker shade of lipstick to substitute your lipliner. Step 2: Highlight the rim of your lips using a lighter shade of lipstick. This will serve as a barrier for when you apply your lipstick. Step 3: Trace the line around your lips with a brush dipped in the darker shade lipstick. Step 4: Color in your lips using the lighter shade and blend it for a cohesive finish. Method 3: Using a foundation as a substitute to lipliner Step 1: Use your foundation normally to even out the color of your face. Step 2: Apply a light coat of foundation on the line of your lips. This will serve as your lipliner. Step 3: Apply your lipstick. Start from the center going outwards. Step 4: Blot your lips and apply another coat. This will help build up the color but not thickening the layer. Step 5: Use a brush to smoothen out the edges of your lips.
