How to line your lips for a defined finish

A lip liner can completely transform your makeup look. It helps define the contours, intensify the color, and create the perfect base for lipstick.

The OSUN Soft Velvet Lip Liner features a soft, creamy texture designed for precise, comfortable application. Its formula delivers intense color, long-lasting wear, and a velvety finish.

STEP 1: Prep your lips

Before applying the liner, ensure your lips are clean and smooth. A smooth surface allows the pencil to glide on more evenly.

STEP 2: Define the Cupid's bow

Start at the center of your upper lip.

Use short strokes to follow the natural shape of your Cupid's bow, working your way toward the corners of your mouth.

Tip: Using short strokes usually allows for greater precision than trying to draw the entire outline in one go.

STEP 3: Define the lower lip

Start at the center of your lower lip and gently connect the lines toward the corners.

For a natural look, simply follow your lip's natural contour.

STEP 4: Fill in for added intensity

The Soft Velvet liner doesn't have to be used solely for outlining.

You can fill in your entire lips with the pencil for a uniform, velvety color finish.

Then, add lipstick or gloss to the center to create extra dimension.

STEP 5: Choose your shade

Rosewood Velvet: an elegant, rosy nude.

Autumn Chestnut: a warm, sophisticated brown.

Scarlet Signature: a classic, intense red.

Midnight Burgundy: a deep, expressive burgundy.

The collection is currently available at OSUN.es for €8.95 each.

One liner, multiple looks

The same pencil can be used in different ways:

On its own: for a defined, velvety look. With lipstick: to intensify and define the result.

With gloss: to create a more luminous finish.

Blended: to achieve a softer, more natural effect.

The finishing touch

The secret to defined lips lies not only in the product but also in the technique. Use short strokes, follow the natural shape of your lips, and blend lightly inward for a softer finish.

With OSUN Soft Velvet, you can create anything from an everyday nude look to an intense lip style for the evening.
