My Lip Lift Technique - Makeup Tips for Happy Lips!

When a bad paint job leaves you looking glum 😂 I have EXACTLY the same expression in both of these shots but I look like I’m about to commit murder in one . Ive had a lot of questions recently asking how to wear lipstick without either emphasising a downturned mouth or, inadvertently, creating a ‘sad’ mouth. If every time you wear a strong lip some random stranger infuriatingly tells you to ‘cheer up love’ ... you might like this one

I had almost forgotten how beauty channels are supposed to give us helpful advice instead of drama and tea.

I can't be held responsible for my actions if one more man tells me to "smile." Your tips may save me from a lifetime in an orange jump suit.

I have spent my entire adult life trying to fix my "resting bitch face" whenever I wear lipstick. I can't believe you did it in 13 minutes.

I'm 24 and always wondered why red and dark lipsticks made me look decades older. You made me realize I've accidentally been making my lips downturned with lip pencil my whole life! I tried it this way and it works perfectly, I can literally wear any shade now, don't have to stick to boring light nudes anymore (which are nice, but it gets stale after a while). I can't believe I'm discovering this just now!! Thank you so much!!!

Watching Lisa line and fill her lips with that tiny precise brush might be the most satisfying thing I’ve ever seen 💄💋🎨

Bloody genius. I hate how my lips look "upset" well i get told i look upset and this is a game changer. Can't wait to try it

[jennhoff]

This video has changed my life! I had no idea this was possible, and I started doing it and I look totally different! And people have commented more on how good I look. I'm doing the same exact thing, it just looks like I'm smiling now. THANK

I used to avoid wearing a lipstick for this very reason for several years. Every time I went to a shop to finally buy a nice shade of lipstick I ended up in frustration because no matter what shade I tried it would turn me into an angry 50 year old woman (although that time I was in my late teens). And only a year ago after experimenting with shape I finally figured out that it's shape that truly matters not colour. So I can definitely admit that this tip is super helpful 🔥

I am often told my face can look quite mean, and never knew why. This is it! No wonder I so rarely wear lipstick. Thank you for this!

[sylvianblue]

I watched this, went straight upstairs and tried it and it only blummin’ works!! I’ve aways wiped rich colours off my lips 2 minutes after putting on because it never looked changes right now!

[skylarcyn]

This is a game changer! I’ve been wearing neutral lipstick or nothing at all because of this issue. This is the best tutorial!

[michaelwhitcomb]

I feel like the hardest part of learning a new technique is breaking the habit of the old one. I absolutely love this lip technique it's so unbelievably easy to do and the difference is astounding. Thank you!! 💋

[BT-xjwx]

I have this downturned issue on the outer corner of my eyes so never wear eyeliner because it looks so weird and gloomy on! Can you do a similar tutorial for the eyes?

[AndrewDoherty]

This is like listening to rain on a window, or watching birds play in the sun. It's the most peaceful thing in the world. Thank you Lisa. Never stop.

[sorrowmul]

Excuse me?! I am 26 and tried the concealer trick rn just to find out that lipstick actually suits me? OMG THANK YOU!!!!

[kaleequanz]

OMG - I am over 60 so not only do I have a naturally turned down month, I have creases that go from my mouth corners downward that give my a pronounced RBF. I tried this technique and also added concealer to the corner lines that go toward my chin, WOW no more RBF! Thank you Lisa for your tips, they are all so helpful!

[beautycat]

This changes everything! I don’t think I’ve ever seen this addressed before. Maybe I will now finally try all those lip colours I buy, but never use. Thank you!

[irairod]

Lisa, you're such an artist! I know everyone knows, but I just wanted to say it aloud.

[krisdiane]

Omg, I've been doing this right! 💗 I realized as a teen that putting lipstick all the way to the corners made my mouth look awful, but I didn't really know why. In the last few months I've started using concealer to cover the corners and shape my lips how I want them. This was very validating and finally explained what it is that makes me need this different technique.

[elizabethhowse]

Wow! I'm glad I found this...besides having downturned mouth in 2020 I had skin cancer surgery and had a part of my upper lip removed, and I still like my lipstick...I have to cheat one side but this video helps a lot..❤❤❤🇨🇦
