A trendy favorite is red, but you can literally use any color your heart desires.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Glitter lips are all about symmetry! So, before you choose which color glitter you\u2019re going to layer onto your lips, you\u2019re going to have to line them with the same color.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Step one:\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use your lip liner, and create an imaginary line for each nostril to your lips. Where the line ends, you will want to draw two dots on both the upper and bottom lips.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1750\" src=\"http:\/\/kbosso.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1800-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kbosso.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1800-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kbosso.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1800-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.kbosso.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/1800.png 700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><b>Step two:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Next, you\u2019re going to connect the two top dots and create an M-shape. Then, connect the bottom two dots by making a straight and even line. Of course, you\u2019ll want to finish the lining process by outlining the remainder of your lips. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Step three:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Okay, so you\u2019re all outlined. Now, use your lip liner and color in the entire lip.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Bosso Pro Tip:<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You\u2019re coloring in your entire lip with pencil because if your glitter lips fade throughout the night, your lip liner will still be there completing your look!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Step four:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Once you\u2019re all colored in, you\u2019re going to add your choice of colored lipstick. \u00a0Make sure it matches your liner and glitter!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Step five:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Now, swipe a bit of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.litcosmetics.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Forever Wear Glitter Base Almond<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> over your lips so you have an all day and all night hold.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1751\" src=\"http:\/\/kbosso.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen-Shot-2017-06-02-at-8.41.03-AM-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kbosso.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen-Shot-2017-06-02-at-8.41.03-AM-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kbosso.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen-Shot-2017-06-02-at-8.41.03-AM-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.kbosso.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen-Shot-2017-06-02-at-8.41.03-AM-768x767.png 768w, https:\/\/www.kbosso.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen-Shot-2017-06-02-at-8.41.03-AM.png 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dip a small brush in your glitter and dab it onto your lips.
