easy beauty hack make lipstick last longer

Step 1: After prepping your lips apply your favourite lipstick as you normally would.

Step 2: Once you are satisfied, place the sheet of tissue on your freshly painted lips.

Step 3: Now dust some setting powder on your lips through the tissue using the fluffy brush. Lightly tap the powder on the tissue, do not rub it.

This trick works because the powder absorbs excess moisture from the lipstick and keeps it in place for a longer time. If you want the shine back apply a coat of sheer gloss. However, if you were aiming for a matte look, this trick will also make your creamy or glossy lipstick matte in seconds!
