My personal beauty tip for preparing my lips before applying lipstick!

I was bothered by the fact that my lipstick would flake off due to dead skin cells every time I applied it.
The color is pretty, but it was a shame because it made my lips look messy.

So these days, I’ve gotten into the habit of checking the condition of my lips first before applying lipstick.

Apply a thin layer of lip balm and leave it on for a moment before applying lipstick.

You don't need to leave it on for too long; it is enough when you feel your lips have softened.

Next, gently press with a tissue to remove any remaining oil on the surface.

If I didn't do this process, the lip product would feel like it was smudging or clumping, but if I smooth it out like this, the surface becomes much smoother.

If you apply lipstick in that state, dead skin cells are less visible, and the color applies much more evenly.

I felt this difference even more significantly, especially when using matte lipstick.

These days, my lips feel awkward if I skip this step, so I make sure to do it before applying makeup.
