A Tip for Valentine's Day - for the Softest Kissable Lips Ever!!

Here's my little tip for Valentine's that will ensure a perfect kissable pout.

Almost all the makeup artists I've worked with on set, prep lips with with a scrub and moisture before applying color.

My favorite is the e.l.f. Lip Exfoliator
Tastes so sweet with a lovely smell of vanilla - perfect for that special Valentine's kiss!! One little swipe with this product and boom, soft and smooth lips for hours. I love that it's stick; so easy on the go..  It exfoliates with Grape Seeds and Brown Sugar and conditions with with Vitamin E, Shea Butter, Avocado, removing dry, chapped skin and leaving soft, smooth, kissable lips. The price is pretty awesome as well - $3.00 at Target

I consider this a must before using a matte lip color, as those could make your cracks more noticeable and dry looking. Not only matte textured lipstick is very unforgiving to lips with dry flakes, but a smooth finish actually helps lips hold ANY color best.

*the first time you use it may seem dry, but there's just a little shield on the top layer you gotta get through. It gets better and better.

Wishing you a passionate Valentine's kiss!!
