It’s the month of love! Whether you are taken or single, most of us can expect to do a bit of smooching! This doesn’t mean your beauty look should suffer. How many times have you given up that sexy red lip to avoid a makeup-mishap 'just in case' you do end the night with a kiss ... or two?




Follow these tried-and-tested tips and tricks for kiss proof lips that will stay all night so that you can seduce him with a colourful pout!


Lipstick should have layers


Layering is the key to making a lip product last! Line and fill your lips with a lip liner, then apply your first coat of lipstick. Blot your lips on a tissue a few times and leave your lips to air for a second before applying another coat on top.


A matte formula does the trick


Lipstick with a matte formula will last longer than a glossy or creamy type as it sticks to your lips rather than just sit on top of them. You can mattify any of your lipsticks by taking a thin layer of a tissue and placing it over your mouth then dusting your lips with a fluffy makeup brush and a translucent setting powder.


Liquid lipsticks last


Liquid lipstick is a long-lasting bright lip saviour, it contains the pigment of a lipstick but applies like a gloss and feels comfortable on the lips. Liquid lipsticks provide an opaque and vivid colour but the formula can be slightly drying and often hard to remove.
