Step 1: Prepare your lips

• Exfoliate your lips to remove any dry, dead skin for a smooth, even surface.
• Apply a lightweight lip balm to moisturize, then wait for the rest of your makeup to be done so the balm can absorb. 

Step 2: Apply to the bottom lip 

• Remove any excess product from the applicator before you start.
• Apply the lipstick to your bottom lip, starting from the center and working your way to the outer corners.
• Carefully line the edge of your bottom lip. 

Step 3: Apply to the top lip 

• Apply the color to your top lip, focusing on the Cupid's bow first and working outwards.
• Line the rest of the top lip with precision. 

Step 4: Blend and set

• Once the product is applied to both lips, press them together to blend the color. This is a suggested step from the manufacturer, however, some sources recommend not pressing your lips together too soon to let the product dry separately.
• Allow the lipstick to dry completely for a long-lasting finish.
