Lip Primer

The Need

Some people deem lip priming products useless as they think they don't do much. The fact is that primers are great for achieving a seamless lip colour as well as increasing the longevity of the lipstick. They work by filling lines and wrinkles on the lips, giving you a smooth canvas to apply lipstick on.

This prevents feathering of the lip product as well as smudging and creasing. Some primers give a neutral base colour to the lips that helps in getting out the right pop of shade out of a lipstick.

Plump & Prime Lip Primers

There are also two-in-one primers available that help plump and prime the lips before lipstick application. Use it for that sought after bee-stung pout. The best ones are MAC Prep + Prime Lip, Cargo Picture Perfect Hydrating Clear Lip Primer, Stila Lush Lips Water Plumping Primer and elf s Lip Primer & Plumper.

Pro Tips

Always exfoliate your lips as the very first step of lip priming before applying lipstick.  Lip priming products won't help much if you are going to apply them on chapped and dehydrated lips. Second step is to apply a hydrating lip balm to prep your lips well and then apply the primer to lock in moisture before putting on lipstick.
