Follow these steps to achieve a well finished MAC Ruby Woo lip:
1. Start off with your toothbrush, use it to brush off flakes on the lips and achieve succulent lips.
2. Apply a small amount of lip butter or balm to add some moisture to your lips. I currently use Revlon Lip Butter, got it from my local Boots store and it is amazing.
3. Use a lip liner that is the same shade as your MAC Ruby Woo lipstick to line your lips.
4. Apply your MAC Ruby Woo lipstick, starting at the center of your upper lip and then towards the corners.
5. Blot and reapply again.
6. Check to make sure there are no excesses on your face or teeth.
7. Apply lip gloss to the inner bottom lip and blot if you want to achieve a matte/shiny look.
8. Don’t apply any lip gloss if you are going for the winter, matte look, which is my current favourite.
This is a helpful tip, I always find that MAC lipsticks are drying!
I have both Russian Red (of course :P) and All Fired Up by MAC.
So even if my shade isn’t ruby woo the part about the toothbrush removing dead skin cell flakes is something I may try!
Yea you should. I always brush off the lip flakes before applying my lipstick. It works like magic for me.
it always works this step with the toothbrush 😀 I personally put a little bit of hydrating cream on and lives the lips soft and nourished! 😉
