Long Lasting Lipstick for Wedding.
Hi fellow stylists, I am doing a wedding consultation in a few days and I could use some advice. When I'm on set touch ups aren't a problem but after I do the bridal makeup I'll be leaving and I'm wondering if anyone can share with me your favorite, longest lasting lipstick. I will probably get the bride to choose her own so she will have an ample supply. Thank you. May 16 06 08:40 am Link I like Lancome...and the Sephora brand. But the best trick is to put a little foundation underneath the lipstick. May 16 06 08:51 am Link Step # 1. Use a lip pencil (natural lip color) and color the whole lip with it 2. Apply Lip color 3. Use Lip Chic (by Alcone) 4. Apply Lip color again 5. Blot 6. Use 1 ply tissue, put on lips, a use powder over tissue That's what I do and it stays Very well. And actually when I do weddings I give the bride a little gift...I give her the tube of lipstick I used on her that way just incase I dont stay, she can apply whenever she wants  May 16 06 04:24 pm Link Doesnt the powder over the lip make it dry?

May 16 06 11:40 pm Link MAC and Max factor make lipsticks specifically for these issues. They are latex based, and they are long wearing. You need baby oil to get them off, and they come with two parts, the color and the gloss you put over it. While completely inappropriate for model makeup, and not even really great for everyday makeup, if she is having a wedding, and does not want to touch up her makeup, this is the way to go. I have gone clubbing and come home 8 hours later and the crap is still on. When I model I NEVER use that kind of lipstick though, as you cannot put any other lipstick over it, and it needs to be applied in a thick even coat the first time as any subsequent touch ups will not do well for the consistancy of the makeup.

I dont know if there is one in Canada but I do know that you can order online at www.alconebeauty.com May 17 06 08:18 am Link Thanks to everyone who wrote. I really appreciate it. Deyanne May 17 06 03:04 pm Link Hey... one more!!! I just found a lipstain by Smashbox that is a liquid applied with a sponge applicator, then the flip side is the gloss. The stain stayyyyyysssss and is great to shape the lips with as well. It comes in 3 different colors that are natural looking. A brown (that is a natural lip with a coral tint), a red (cherry), and maroon. They sound dark, but you control by how many layers you apply. It is really great! It does not get crusty, sandy, or wear off like most long staying lipsticks. May 20 06 09:37 pm Link Picture Perfect Makeup wrote: Good to know I think I might get those. May 20 06 09:55 pm Link Here's what I "do" for all of my brides. I have purchses diposable containers that are very small, like a pill holder, I create the brides lip stick colour that suites her and she loves the colour than I put some into the container with a disposable lip stick brush. I make a "bride kit" it has one shout whipe in it, the custom lip colour and disposable wand, and a couple of tissues, and some blotting papers .All of my brides have loved this "gift" i give them, its included into my price but they dont know about it untill i am just about to leave. So its a surprize. Never had a problem with lips not happy with this little estra step to make a brides spececail day kissable. May 20 06 10:42 pm Link Use Lancome You apply it...let it sit for 5 secs and apply the concealer that comes with it and her lips will stay for the entire day. 18 hours. Feels like she's wearing nothing at all. It won't wear off nor fade (unless she's drinking like a fish) May 20 06 10:48 pm Link Crazy-Evil Angelus wrote: what lancome product? May 20 06 10:54 pm Link The description of smashbox sounds really nice - I might try it. I know that smashbox makes the most heavenly primer ever! It makes the skin feel like velvet. The Lancome lipstick sounds interesting as well. Decisions, decisions!!

May 23 06 11:43 pm Link Deyanne Holmes wrote: The Smashbox primer is REALLY GREAT!!! It's soft and doesn't feel like you have anything on your face. Makeup looks like natural skin (I've used it with Joe Blasco, Mac, Sheer Cover) and the makeup stays all day. Better than the Lancome or MAC silicone primers. Infact, I'd say best on the market! May 24 06 12:32 am Link Of course I will tell you MAC Longwear- the bride will wake up with it on still (as long as the lips are exfoliated before application..)!!! May 24 06 12:36 am Link |
