Colours
There is a wide range of matt shades of Lipstick (Pure), including Base Pure – a clear lipstick that can be mixed with all other shades to make a colour more transparent. The range also boasts a number of glossy Pearl tints in addition to the matt colours.
Procedure
To emphasise the contours or to change them, use a lip pencil to draw lines, working from the outside inwards. A very thin layer of Grimas Anti Shine can be applied as a primer for extra adhesion. If the lips are dry, first apply a thin layer of Grimas Lipstick Base Pure. To prevent Lipstick (Pure) from running into any creases around the mouth, you can apply a thin layer of Grimas Camouflage Make-up Pure to the lips beforehand.
Take the Lipstick (Pure) onto a spatula (even if you are working from a stick) and apply it with a lip brush. First colour the middle of the lips and then colour the edges, working from the outside inwards. Dab the result with a tissue to matt it off. To make the lips ‘kiss-proof’, powder the matt Lipstick (Pure) off copiously with Grimas Fixing Powder.
This powder should be ‘rolled’ across the lips with a velour powder puff and any excess powder removed with a blusher brush or velour powder puff. Do not powder off if a glossy effect is required. To fix a lipstick that has to retain a glossy effect, apply Pearl Eye Shadow over the lipstick.
Removal
Lipstick can be removed with Cleansing Cream or Cleansing Milk.
