Dita Von Teese Personal Lipstick Advice!

[LoverDoll Linz]

I follow DVT on twitter, and finally got a chance to ask her a beauty question. I wanted to know how she kept her lips looking so good and how she prevented bleeding. She said use a lip primer, matte lipstick and liner. So, that's what I'll do!

Good advice. Thanks for sharing!

Right on! It's a cool feeling when someone so busy takes time out of their schedule to reply! It's pretty basic info that a MU artist would/should know but it would most def come in handy for lots of other people new to the world of face paint hehe, Thanks for sharing with everyone!

I like the MAC lip primer and I apply lip liner under my lipstick first and it also helps it from fading. The lip primer helps the liner go on smooth and helps the matte lipstick from drying out your lips.

I agree, the MAC lip primer is really nice to use...very smooth finish.

my problem is that it runs out so quickly! Way before my lipstick is gone.

Laura Gellar's Lip Spackle is the best lip primer out there. You can find it at Sephora or online. Matte lipstick is definitely a good tip because I find that the red gloss we top our lipstick off with is really what bleeds.

I worked for MAC for 5.5 years, and during that time I was ADDICTED to their lip primer. It was the only way I could keep their Lipglass from running all over my face, lol. After I left them (2 years ago) I decided to branch out and see what else was out there, and what I found works so much better for me. I discovered Make Up Forever's (MUFE) Aqua Lip lipliners. They are soft & creamy and *waterproof* & their performance made me throw my MAC liners in the trash. I also discovered their Supergloss, which is just as shiny as Lipglass but it is water resistant, so it stays put no matter what. I don't even use lip primer anymore, which was a hard concept for me to grasp, especially as a MUA. *sigh* If only MUFE would give me a job, lol. Oh, you can fidn those products at Sephora or sephora.com.
