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!!!
Tell them that they're being rude. Most of them get embarrassed and will leave you alone.😂 I used to work at a restaurant and was told plenty of times that I had to smile by guests. I wasn't upset or sad, just concentrating on not spilling drinks... Them demanding me to smile made me upset. 🥴
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 YOU!!!!!!!!!!
@@LisaEldridge just wanted you to know how much I look up to you, I'm a widowed mom with two young boys and honestly, I have been struggling, I haven't been able to work since January, I work with horses that would have been sent to slaughter for not placing in the races and with school being cancelled because of the virus, I can't work with horses, and have my boys. I haven't been doing my makeup for quite a while, I tend to kind of give up on myself when I'm struggling. Anyway, I have a naturally down turned mouth, and this has helped me a ton, I don't know why I put all of that out there, it doesn't really matter.
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 always use lip liner then like pull it down if u know what I mean so it kinda coats my lips then put on a mauve lightish & then online my lips til I get that way I like they ..try this lips sticks there usually in a lip gloss like container they are great but always remember light touch or we end up looking like witches or old ..good look play around stay away from dark stuff ...I find eyebrows also help your look I got a $ 100 wet 7 will pencil & practiced took a while some told me they aren't twins really lift up your face and again a light I use taupe long pencil....ELF has a nice one too with a spooky on end to blend
Consider softening your brows if they’re angular. And soften the first quarter of them making sure those innermost corners (about 1-2 mm) aren’t dark or are the thickest part of your brow. This is a good example of a soft brow images.app.goo.gl/wom4sAccggah6VEB6. Here’s one that can look angry images.app.goo.gl/hxzSTRaVuT98foQK8
Chantelle, you have the better words as I have ! I'm German and since long time not used in to speak in English, and so it was a bit difficult for me to thank her for this easy but genius Trick! 😀😉👍
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?
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 ‘right’.....that changes right now!
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!! 💋
Omg I was thinking the same thing!!! When I see Lisa has a new video I immediately want to sit down with a cup of hot tea, blanket and just listen and relax 😂❤️ I could watch and listen to her for HOURS
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!
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!
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.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! After politely sitting through countless makeup salesladies demonstrations for lipliners and lipsticks and ending up looking like an angry drag queen (not that there's anything wrong with that, just not the look that I'm going for), I can't wait to try this technique for a natural, happy look.
Best tip EVER! Now I know why my lips look weird sometimes...I've gone out too far at the edges and accidentally emphasized my resting sad face! Thank you so much!!!!
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..❤❤❤🇨🇦
I have known and admired your work for years and years... I used to just watch your videos because I loved makeup, and I loved the way you explained it for people that knew so little as I did at the time. What I didn't know was that, one day, I was going to want to become a makeup artist myself. I'm getting there, and I recently remembered your lessons, your channel, and how you make seem easy the things that are not, how elegant your art and, how not hard to follow your explanations are, and how humble I think you are. What I came here to say (tho I said a lot haha) was just THANK YOU. I wish, and I hope, I can be able to achieve to do makeup at least slightly as well as you do it, one day. You are so, so loved.
Just found this video after so much frustration over the years with my RBF and downturned lips. I cannot believe how this technique works! I have avoided strong colors for years. Thank you!!!!
As I was watching I never took my eyes off your mouth. All of a sudden I felt a tear roll down my cheek & realized I was looking at a picture I have of my late mother from the early fifties. Then you used the lipstick as blush & I was hopelessly crying as she did the same thing mixed with a bit of moisturizer. My mother was a beautiful woman and only did her brows, wore a bit of mascara, blush and red lipstick. She was often said to look like Maureen O'Hara with her Reddish Brown hair and leaf green eyes. I thank you for the wonderful tip as my lips with gravity have started turning down bringing me to this helpful tutorial. Also thank you for the trip down memory lane & memories of my Mom & best friend😍
Lisa, I just want you to know that you've created my most favourite lipsticks in existence. The colours are just so lively and natural, like they belong on my lips. And as a welcome bonus, they feel so light and comfortable!
"the downturned crease, which we haven't entertained" made me smile. Lovely way to put it. This technique will take me a bit of practice, as I have been making the same mistakes with application. Thank you for your lovely videos, Lisa 🌸
That was so helpful Lisa. I was considering having surgery because I’m so sick of being asked if I’m feeling ok or “what’s wrong?”. If I’m not constantly talking or smiling my lips look miserable!! Thanks so much for this, so helpful 🥰
Look into the Face Yoga Method by Fumiko Takatsu. Learning how to strengthen and relax your facial muscles can make a big difference in the mouth and whole face. I am doing the 6 week boot camp and it's excellent.
You are the first proper MUA I started following… and the reason I don't listen to self-proclaimed gurus. And you are still my favourite, I have needed this video.
Such an eye opener! As a MUCH older woman, losing my lip line has been so depressing. Now I realize I've been lining all the way into that deep corner which hasn't helped. Thanks!
As time has marched on, I've developed a long, narrow 'mean' mouth. These tips are genius for someone that only wears bolder lipstick. No more Bette, hello Lisa. Thank you for sharing these pointers.
I AM SOOOO IMPRESSED!!!❤ MY LIPS ARE ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME SHAPE AS YOURS AND THEY DO THE EXACT SAME THING WITH MY RED LIPSTICK WHICH IS " MY MAIN COLOR"😉 AND NOWWWWWW I DON'T HAVE TO MAKE MYSELF HAVE A "SLIGHT SMILE"☺ ALL THE TIME JUST TO LOOK LIKE I'M NOT IN A " BAD MOOD" !!! 😂😂😂 THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH THAT WAS " GREAT HELP"❤💋😁
I love wearing make up. I used to watch my dearly departed mother apply her make up and I learned that way. Lisa is so relaxing to watch,just like my mom was.
This video is really helpful, since this has been my problem with lipstick for some time. I use lipliner, concealer, powder, whatever has been recommended and still look somehow sad. So I followed all your tips and found they really worked. Then reality kicked in and I realized that hardly anyone apart from my family is going to see the results now that we have to wear masks all the time. One more reason to long for a world in which we don't have to use them any longer!
You are a godsend, so smart and talented, I can't thank you enough. I used to always look like I was about to cry or have rbf all the time! Now its just a pretty vintage look! I can not thank you enough!!!
Excellent video. As a woman in her early 60’s my mouth is starting to turn down making me look unhappy. It never even occurred to me to use concealer in this way. After your highlighter trick, my lips and face looks so much more “happy”! Thank you SO much! 💕
Hi…I know it’s been 2years since you posted this comment on Lisa Eldridge’s TH-cam channel. You were watching her video about lips, but you commented that you were struggling with terrible skin. I’m wondering how your skin is doing now. If you’re still having problems, I’d like to see if I can help in anyway. I’m 77 and have been interested in skin care all my adult life. Perhaps I can guide you to products or a specialist who can help you. I do not sell anything. I’m not here to make any money. I just like to help if you need it. But what I really hope issues are over and your skin is glowing now. Let me know OK I’m just a grandma in San Antonio who is obsessed with skin care!
@@robinholbrook6576 This is so random and I'm sorry to bother you. I would love some help and advice. If you're interested I would even pay for advice and recommendations 😊
I feel so validated! My makeup skills are super basic and I always felt like I was cheating by cutting corners with lipstick, but I noticed it gave me an overly serious face. This video is so wonderful and informative!
i've done this for the past few weeks and it has given me the confidence to wear all the beautiful lipsticks that i have bought from you, lisa! it works so well!
Dear Lisa, every time you show your genius with your perfect simplicity. I use google translate so i hope it sounds right. With you, every platform is pure joy. 💗💗💗
Ali Andreea you tube talked about your lipstick and I fell in love with the technique she used and her love of your matte velvet lipsticks/liners! Based on her reviews I ordered the Velvet Ribbon and liner! I was not disappointed, I have ordered two more since… THANK YOU for making your amazing products available to this side of the pond and lipsticks that do nothing but have people ask WHAT LIPSTICK is that!! It lasts forever and STILL looks amazing! I am a LIFE time fan and have made sure others know! AND your customer service is the best !!!
Thank you for this! I have to make TH-cam & IG videos for work. I have recently noticed my mouth is starting to have "gravity" affect it. I was convinced I had to suffer with the camera revealing this. LOVE 💕 these kind of anti aging makeup tips!
I learnt doing my make up from you and because of this I feel more beautiful and confident than ever (specially when wearing Velvet Beauty)! Thank u Lisa, please don t ever stop!
Oh. My. God. Thank you so much for this! I never ever wear lipstick because even though I love the colors, I hated the way they looked on my lips. I just tried it with the only lipstick I have and IT TOTALLY WORKS. I’m going on a lipstick buying spree ASAP. You rock Lisa!
I know that very well, people always think that I'm sad or angry and ask what's wrong and it's just my lips! Tomorrow morning I'll practice with Lisa to fix that a little bit! :)
I’ve been a self proclaimed makeup artist for 31 years, age 14, I’ve embraced my larger lips 💋 given the fashion, yet taking out these corners beforehand is genius, I wear Gloss atop of my lipstick so it’s been pooling in these genuine corners and actually heading south! This is ingenious Lisa 🎉thank you - I literally thought I knew ALL THE TRADE TRICKS! 🎉
Thank you, Lisa! I have had days when my lips looked better and I tried really hard to replicate it the next day. By trying really hard to cover my full lip, I ended up with a less appealing look. Now I know why. I have learned to replicate that attractive look. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Genius. I've done this, what a huge difference it makes, thank you so much!!! I'm not sure I understood about the concealer, tho', it didn't look like you were covering any part of your lip, but next to your lip on your face...
I feel like these types of little tips make such a huge difference. Not all of us have the lips we wish we did or the lips we had 20 years ago. Please share more tips like these that really make a huge difference. How many years had I gone powering my foundation and it looked caked on even though I had combo skin I needed very little or none now I just use setting sprays. We need to see other ways to do everything because we are all so incredibly different and it’s amazing how just one tip changes your whole life sometimes. When you feel beautiful you’re more confident.
Thank you SO much for this! I’ve always worn red lipstick but as I get older and gravity takes its toll my mouth seems to get smaller and the corners droopier. I’ve tried to counter this by extending colour over the corner lines and have noticed I’m beginning to look like a sad clown. I tried your technique yesterday and cannot believe how much happier (and therefore younger!) the effect is. Absolutely delighted with the improvement. ❤️
So THIS is why my lipstick always looks weird!!!! This has been life changing, I’ve spent more than ten years watching TH-cam makeup tutorials and playing with makeup and literally have never seen anyone explain how to apply lip liner. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!
Annnndddd... THIS is why I follow you, even though I don't wear a lot of makeup on the daily. What a smart and technical way to manage a slightly down turned mouth! 💕
I definitely have downturned corners and knew intuitively I needed to make a change. I’ve been careful for years not to make myself look unhappy by smiling more. But, now you’ve given me tips on how to draw my lips in a positive way.
finally... someone come up with this trick.. my life is gonna change now.. i have dropy lips much more then her. it is always a hassal for me to apply lipstick.
I wish I would’ve had this video years ago. I had to figure all this out on my own by trial and error. I have a naturally down turned mouth & from time to time, especially after turning 40, I’d notice in photos my lip shape looked old & grumpy. I found at first that if I put the lipstick on, took a quick selfie, I could see better for some reason in the photo if my lip shape was even & right. Now I’m much more efficient at it. Thanks for the tips!
Love this, Lisa! Please could you do a tutorial on how to look healthy, less sallow, tired, brighter eyes etc? I've been really ill with covid the last couple of months and just feel awful. I need to look in the mirror and not see a sick person anymore 😔
I know this is really late but I’m sick too and these are the tips that help me. I put a salmon color corrector under my concealer on my dark circles. And I put highlighter in the inner crease of my eye and my upper brow bone. I angle my blush up higher on my cheekbones instead of the apples of my cheek. This always makes me a little less dead, hope it helps!
So many of today’s foundations are yellow-based, so sickening, they make the majority of us with “cool” skin tones look sallow. So hard to find pink-or blue-undertones in foundations, CC cream, BB creams.
@@lynnebattaglia-triggs1042 oh you speak to me girl. Totally agree. I find Tarte makes the best true cool undertones. Not yellow or warm at all. The new Shape Tape Cloud Foundation that I reviewed has quickly become one of my favs. And their Hydroflex Serum. KVD Good Apple I find has great cools as well. Unfortunately even the new Kosas Revealer that I love runs yellow and claims they are "cool." I add the LA Girl mixers or a touch of their cool pink concealer if I have to make it cooler. Anyhoo, I totally feel you!
@@Just_Lurking8 Hi there 😊 That is one on my list that I haven't tried yet 😭 I've been enjoying the Tarte Soft Matte Cloud Foundation but have no idea if they are similar or not. Sorry!
It’s always an experience to say the least , to watch a master of their craft, teach us something. Wether it’s new to you or us or not, it is so cool to watch her work. 🥰 I love ❤️ it!
I noticed this when I used to watch Gossip girl and I’d be staring at Blair’s (Leighton Meester) lips in admiration. The corners of her lips turn up. It always looked so flattering, feminine, happy. Now I know how to emulate that 💄👄💕
Thanks for this tip! I've been around the makeup and skin care industry for 64 years. I really thought I knew all of the tricks of the trade. This one I missed somewhere along the way. Probably because I didn't need it until now. I have trained myself to hold my mouth so that my lip line is straight across at rest. It solves the problem of down turned mouth. Unfortunately, it makes me look very stoic. I tried your lip tip and it was just great! No more stoicism for this girl; only pleasant looks from now on. Thank you, Lisa!
I have been searching and searching but afraid to ask how to get the look of 'today' and even though I've still not managed, this is one of the biggest helpful tools I have found! I too have a very pronounced 'downturn' on my mouth and I really dislike it. Makes me very very self conscious. Definitely going to give this a try. Thank you!
What a lovely lady. I bought ruby woo because apparently anyone can wear it but I looked like a sad clown from an operetta. In fact apart from feeling really ugly even my mum was quite quick to point out it didn’t suit me. But the thing is I’d like to try a red to feel pretty and feminine but I end up looking ugly and maniacal. Just what I needed to see. Thank you.
This is great! I'm happy to say that I've been applying my lipstick like this for a couple years. After watching a body type video by Aly Art, I realized that overdrawing and trying to create plump, luscious lips actually clashed with the rest of my features. I started to make my lips sharper by doing exactly what you demonstrated and the result was so transformative. My lips were now in harmony with my other features and looked so much better 💜💄
I remember you were saying some tims ago that you were going to do a series on how to cover different types of dark circles. Will we still get that series in the future? 😊 Hope you're well! ❤
I often got in trouble as a kid for always "pouting" and now that I'm older I realize that my resting face naturally 'pouts' because my mouth is noticeably downturned... this is helpful, I normally avoid lipstick because it emphasizes that pout but with these tips I'll give it another shot. Thank you Lisa ♡
This was so helpful, THANK YOU! I've tried wearing really bright reds, but they never look quite right--especially in the corners of the mouth! Now that I know what I'm doing, I can't wait to try again (and I might have to finally cave and buy a lip liner and lipstick from your collections!)
I had almost forgotten how beauty channels are supposed to give us helpful advice instead of drama and tea.
Lisa’s videos are certainly educational, she does not waste her time gossiping.
I’ve been avoiding YT for that exact reason. Lisa is always a classy alternative.
I love it, her videos are so simplistic.
For real!! 👍❤️
So true!

Same! 56 yrs old , just learned this today! 😂😊
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.
ba ha ha ha ha ha! makes me what to answer back “f u”.......💖
I know it's annoying !!
God, I HATE that. It’s so rude too!
Tell them that they're being rude. Most of them get embarrassed and will leave you alone.😂 I used to work at a restaurant and was told plenty of times that I had to smile by guests. I wasn't upset or sad, just concentrating on not spilling drinks... Them demanding me to smile made me upset. 🥴
Relatable😭
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.
🤣🤣🤣
Ikr!!!
Mr too. Thank you so much.
Starting to like mine!
Ahh me too... was born with it, its emphasized with age... hate it.. hope this trick helps.
Watching Lisa line and fill her lips with that tiny precise brush might be the most satisfying thing I’ve ever seen 💄💋🎨

The best lipstick trick i have ever seen...i cant wait to try this..thanks lisa😘
I love that little brush.

i like wearing nothing at all. why do women have to do so many unconfortable things to look better and men don't ?
But if you want to, now there's proper instruction to help you enjoy the process and look!

"the downturned crease, which we haven't entertained" made me smile. Lovely way to put it. This technique will take me a bit of practice, as I have been making the same mistakes with application.
Thank you for your lovely videos, Lisa 🌸
That was so helpful Lisa. I was considering having surgery because I’m so sick of being asked if I’m feeling ok or “what’s wrong?”. If I’m not constantly talking or smiling my lips look miserable!! Thanks so much for this, so helpful 🥰
Me too!
High five sis ! Same here
I have been told that I look unapproachable because my mouth turns down!
Look into the Face Yoga Method by Fumiko Takatsu. Learning how to strengthen and relax your facial muscles can make a big difference in the mouth and whole face. I am doing the 6 week boot camp and it's excellent.
"Cheer up love it may never happen "....the usual response I get even when I'm happy inside. The face says "miserable"
You are the first proper MUA I started following… and the reason I don't listen to self-proclaimed gurus. And you are still my favourite, I have needed this video.
Yay!! This is exactly what I have been needing, so often we are taught how to “lift” our eyes but not our lips! X

Hi 🙏🙏🔥
Such an eye opener! As a MUCH older woman, losing my lip line has been so depressing. Now I realize I've been lining all the way into that deep corner which hasn't helped. Thanks!
As time has marched on, I've developed a long, narrow 'mean' mouth. These tips are genius for someone that only wears bolder lipstick. No more Bette, hello Lisa. Thank you for sharing these pointers.
I AM SOOOO IMPRESSED!!!❤ MY LIPS ARE ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME SHAPE AS YOURS AND THEY DO THE EXACT SAME THING WITH MY RED LIPSTICK WHICH IS " MY MAIN COLOR"😉 AND NOWWWWWW I DON'T HAVE TO MAKE MYSELF HAVE A "SLIGHT SMILE"☺ ALL THE TIME JUST TO LOOK LIKE I'M NOT IN A " BAD MOOD" !!! 😂😂😂 THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH THAT WAS " GREAT HELP"❤💋😁
I love wearing make up. I used to watch my dearly departed mother apply her make up and I learned that way. Lisa is so relaxing to watch,just like my mom was.
Never mind the lips -- that is the most natural eye make-up I have ever seen. Well done.
Lisa, it is admirable how generous you are with your knowledge and artistry. You are a joy!
This video is really helpful, since this has been my problem with lipstick for some time. I use lipliner, concealer, powder, whatever has been recommended and still look somehow sad. So I followed all your tips and found they really worked. Then reality kicked in and I realized that hardly anyone apart from my family is going to see the results now that we have to wear masks all the time. One more reason to long for a world in which we don't have to use them any longer!
You explained this technique so well! Makes such a difference.
You are a godsend, so smart and talented, I can't thank you enough. I used to always look like I was about to cry or have rbf all the time! Now its just a pretty vintage look! I can not thank you enough!!!
The really is next level skillset.
Excellent video. As a woman in her early 60’s my mouth is starting to turn down making me look unhappy. It never even occurred to me to use concealer in this way. After your highlighter trick, my lips and face looks so much more “happy”! Thank you SO much! 💕
I really need this. I'm older and my lips turn down like my Grandmother's did (thanks grandma). You give such great tips. Thank you!
Your lipstick looks beautiful in your profile picture!
@@Lauraphoid TYVM!
You are so beautiful!
I don't wear makeup for various reasons (struggling with terrible skin), but I just love Lisa! She makes me feel like I could if I wanted.
Hi…I know it’s been 2years since you posted this comment on Lisa Eldridge’s TH-cam channel. You were watching her video about lips, but you commented that you were struggling with terrible skin. I’m wondering how your skin is doing now. If you’re still having problems, I’d like to see if I can help in anyway. I’m 77 and have been interested in skin care all my adult life. Perhaps I can guide you to products or a specialist who can help you. I do not sell anything. I’m not here to make any money. I just like to help if you need it. But what I really hope issues are over and your skin is glowing now. Let me know OK I’m just a grandma in San Antonio who is obsessed with skin care!
@@robinholbrook6576 This is so random and I'm sorry to bother you. I would love some help and advice. If you're interested I would even pay for advice and recommendations 😊
This has got to be the most useful makeup tutorial I’ve ever watched!
I feel so validated! My makeup skills are super basic and I always felt like I was cheating by cutting corners with lipstick, but I noticed it gave me an overly serious face. This video is so wonderful and informative!
Nobody talks about this! Thank you so much for the tips lisa!
You are the only person that I don’t skip her videos. It’s great to get tips from a real makeup artist for free. Amazing tips as usual. ❤️
i've done this for the past few weeks and it has given me the confidence to wear all the beautiful lipsticks that i have bought from you, lisa! it works so well!
I just love the classic make up look. Not overdone. Lovely
GIRL you need a podcast 💕💕 your voice Is sooo soft and relaxing
Gosh I wish she would . I listen to her videos while I'm at work it's always quite comforting . ☺️
I think as we get older we all get a downturned mouth. Thank you so much for this Lisa. Great content as usual.😚🙏
Now that sounds depressing :o Happily we now have a cure for that, from this video!
Dear Lisa, every time you show your genius with your perfect simplicity. I use google translate so i hope it sounds right. With you, every platform is pure joy.
💗💗💗
Ali Andreea you tube talked about your lipstick and I fell in love with the technique she used and her love of your matte velvet lipsticks/liners! Based on her reviews I ordered the Velvet Ribbon and liner! I was not disappointed, I have ordered two more since… THANK YOU for making your amazing products available to this side of the pond and lipsticks that do nothing but have people ask WHAT LIPSTICK is that!! It lasts forever and STILL looks amazing! I am a LIFE time fan and have made sure others know! AND your customer service is the best !!!
I am so pleased you're happy with my products and thank you so much for your wonderful words. Xx
Thank you for this! I have to make TH-cam & IG videos for work. I have recently noticed my mouth is starting to have "gravity" affect it. I was convinced I had to suffer with the camera revealing this. LOVE 💕 these kind of anti aging makeup tips!
and this is WHY I admire you as an artist. This is more like corrective makeup and LOVE what you did🙌🏼
You are so pretty and fresh, 5years following you and you still bring’ really Interesting topic !! Thx you very much 💕
Kisses from France 🇫🇷
This is the tutorial we need but not the one we deserve. Lisa you’re a silent guardian, watchful protector.
I learnt doing my make up from you and because of this I feel more beautiful and confident than ever (specially when wearing Velvet Beauty)! Thank u Lisa, please don t ever stop!
Oh. My. God. Thank you so much for this! I never ever wear lipstick because even though I love the colors, I hated the way they looked on my lips. I just tried it with the only lipstick I have and IT TOTALLY WORKS. I’m going on a lipstick buying spree ASAP. You rock Lisa!
I know that very well, people always think that I'm sad or angry and ask what's wrong and it's just my lips! Tomorrow morning I'll practice with Lisa to fix that a little bit! :)
I’m in my red lipstick era and just had to rewatch this. Amazing techniques!❤
Always so informative - as ever, thank you Lisa, for sharing your knowledge. It’s really appreciated!
I’ve been a self proclaimed makeup artist for 31 years, age 14, I’ve embraced my larger lips 💋 given the fashion, yet taking out these corners beforehand is genius, I wear Gloss atop of my lipstick so it’s been pooling in these genuine corners and actually heading south! This is ingenious Lisa 🎉thank you - I literally thought I knew ALL THE TRADE TRICKS! 🎉
😘😘😘
Such a simple trick and yet I never thought of it myself. Thank you!
Thank you, Lisa! I have had days when my lips looked better and I tried really hard to replicate it the next day. By trying really hard to cover my full lip, I ended up with a less appealing look. Now I know why. I have learned to replicate that attractive look. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Hi 🔥🔥🔥
Please do a Audrey Hepburn Roman Holiday makeup tutorial or an everyday Audrey look with product shades similar to hers 😍you would make my day!
She did a while ago, just check on the searching box 😉
Olga Połońska do you mean the breakfast at Tiffany’s one?
@@thehiddenpearl3720 yes she did this one and another 1950s Audrey look 😉
@@thehiddenpearl3720 th-cam.com/video/B5yEqKTK8Is/w-d-xo.html
Olga Połońska oh my gosh! I searched and never saw this! Thank you!!!
Genius. I've done this, what a huge difference it makes, thank you so much!!! I'm not sure I understood about the concealer, tho', it didn't look like you were covering any part of your lip, but next to your lip on your face...
Such a helpful demonstration, thought I would have to live with my downturned mouth forever! Thanks so much!
I feel like these types of little tips make such a huge difference. Not all of us have the lips we wish we did or the lips we had 20 years ago. Please share more tips like these that really make a huge difference. How many years had I gone powering my foundation and it looked caked on even though I had combo skin I needed very little or none now I just use setting sprays. We need to see other ways to do everything because we are all so incredibly different and it’s amazing how just one tip changes your whole life sometimes. When you feel beautiful you’re more confident.
OMG! Thank you Lisa! ❤️🙌 The topic and the timing of your video is CELESTIAL right now. Love from Honduras🇭🇳
Thank you SO much for this! I’ve always worn red lipstick but as I get older and gravity takes its toll my mouth seems to get smaller and the corners droopier. I’ve tried to counter this by extending colour over the corner lines and have noticed I’m beginning to look like a sad clown. I tried your technique yesterday and cannot believe how much happier (and therefore younger!) the effect is. Absolutely delighted with the improvement. ❤️
Hi 👍🔥🔥
So THIS is why my lipstick always looks weird!!!! This has been life changing, I’ve spent more than ten years watching TH-cam makeup tutorials and playing with makeup and literally have never seen anyone explain how to apply lip liner. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!
I love your research as a makeup historian but it is a joy just to watch you put on lipstick, thank you for your immense contribution to cosmetics
This is the most helpful makeup tutorial I have seen in my life.
Annnndddd... THIS is why I follow you, even though I don't wear a lot of makeup on the daily. What a smart and technical way to manage a slightly down turned mouth! 💕
This helps with older lip wrinkles on ends too since it tends to bleed.
I definitely have downturned corners and knew intuitively I needed to make a change. I’ve been careful for years not to make myself look unhappy by smiling more. But, now you’ve given me tips on how to draw my lips in a positive way.
finally... someone come up with this trick.. my life is gonna change now.. i have dropy lips much more then her. it is always a hassal for me to apply lipstick.
I wish I would’ve had this video years ago. I had to figure all this out on my own by trial and error. I have a naturally down turned mouth & from time to time, especially after turning 40, I’d notice in photos my lip shape looked old & grumpy. I found at first that if I put the lipstick on, took a quick selfie, I could see better for some reason in the photo if my lip shape was even & right. Now I’m much more efficient at it. Thanks for the tips!
Love this, Lisa! Please could you do a tutorial on how to look healthy, less sallow, tired, brighter eyes etc? I've been really ill with covid the last couple of months and just feel awful. I need to look in the mirror and not see a sick person anymore 😔
I know this is really late but I’m sick too and these are the tips that help me. I put a salmon color corrector under my concealer on my dark circles. And I put highlighter in the inner crease of my eye and my upper brow bone. I angle my blush up higher on my cheekbones instead of the apples of my cheek. This always makes me a little less dead, hope it helps!
So many of today’s foundations are yellow-based, so sickening, they make the majority of us with “cool” skin tones look sallow. So hard to find pink-or blue-undertones in foundations, CC cream, BB creams.
@@lynnebattaglia-triggs1042 oh you speak to me girl. Totally agree. I find Tarte makes the best true cool undertones. Not yellow or warm at all. The new Shape Tape Cloud Foundation that I reviewed has quickly become one of my favs. And their Hydroflex Serum. KVD Good Apple I find has great cools as well. Unfortunately even the new Kosas Revealer that I love runs yellow and claims they are "cool." I add the LA Girl mixers or a touch of their cool pink concealer if I have to make it cooler. Anyhoo, I totally feel you!
@@DanielleNicoleMakeup Hi, I want to buy the newest foundation of Makeup Forever, have you tried that ?
@@Just_Lurking8 Hi there 😊 That is one on my list that I haven't tried yet 😭 I've been enjoying the Tarte Soft Matte Cloud Foundation but have no idea if they are similar or not. Sorry!
It’s always an experience to say the least , to watch a master of their craft, teach us something. Wether it’s new to you or us or not, it is so cool to watch her work. 🥰 I love ❤️ it!
I noticed this when I used to watch Gossip girl and I’d be staring at Blair’s (Leighton Meester) lips in admiration. The corners of her lips turn up. It always looked so flattering, feminine, happy. Now I know how to emulate that
💄👄💕
I love how u manage to get made up without being vain. I think u r naturally humble.
You taught me to that it's fine to overdraw my lip, but this realllllly helps perfect it!
Thanks for this tip! I've been around the makeup and skin care industry for 64 years. I really thought I knew all of the tricks of the trade. This one I missed somewhere along the way. Probably because I didn't need it until now. I have trained myself to hold my mouth so that my lip line is straight across at rest. It solves the problem of down turned mouth. Unfortunately, it makes me look very stoic. I tried your lip tip and it was just great! No more stoicism for this girl; only pleasant looks from now on.
Thank you, Lisa!
Lisa, you have the best tips and tricks and I love all your glosses. Myth, Ribbon, and Beauty are my favs!
So happy to hear that X
@@LisaEldridge ...and i finally get the Blue Velvet Collection and really love, love all of them; can't wait to try these tricks. TY Lisa🥰
I have been searching and searching but afraid to ask how to get the look of 'today' and even though I've still not managed, this is one of the biggest helpful tools I have found! I too have a very pronounced 'downturn' on my mouth and I really dislike it. Makes me very very self conscious. Definitely going to give this a try. Thank you!
This is priceless ❤ I want that lipstick so bad! I have to make saving for one a priority in my budget 💄 💋 Hope you're well Lisa, sending love 💌
What a lovely lady.
I bought ruby woo because apparently anyone can wear it but I looked like a sad clown from an operetta. In fact apart from feeling really ugly even my mum was quite quick to point out it didn’t suit me.
But the thing is I’d like to try a red to feel pretty and feminine but I end up looking ugly and maniacal.
Just what I needed to see. Thank you.
Yes do try it ! xxx
Wow, artist at work. Thank you for this. Now I know why I sometimes look "sad" with statement lipsticks.
This is great! I'm happy to say that I've been applying my lipstick like this for a couple years.
After watching a body type video by Aly Art, I realized that overdrawing and trying to create plump, luscious lips actually clashed with the rest of my features.
I started to make my lips sharper by doing exactly what you demonstrated and the result was so transformative. My lips were now in harmony with my other features and looked so much better 💜💄
Yesss yesss i couldn't agree with you more ! 🌞
I remember you were saying some tims ago that you were going to do a series on how to cover different types of dark circles. Will we still get that series in the future? 😊
Hope you're well! ❤
I often got in trouble as a kid for always "pouting" and now that I'm older I realize that my resting face naturally 'pouts' because my mouth is noticeably downturned... this is helpful, I normally avoid lipstick because it emphasizes that pout but with these tips I'll give it another shot. Thank you Lisa ♡
This was so helpful, THANK YOU! I've tried wearing really bright reds, but they never look quite right--especially in the corners of the mouth! Now that I know what I'm doing, I can't wait to try again (and I might have to finally cave and buy a lip liner and lipstick from your collections!)
What brand of your lipsticks💄
Amazing tutorial as always. Lisa truly wants all women to look beautiful and gives tips and tricks that all can use. Thank you.
