How to use one lipstick to make up the whole face

Completely different from the usual makeup styles, applying makeup to the whole face with one lipstick is a minimalist and economical style. Instead of having to use many types of makeup cosmetics such as foundation, powder, blush, eye shadow... now you only have one lipstick to accompany you.

Not only lips but also eyes, cheeks and even face contouring are all done with lipstick. This method contributes to creating an interesting unity of color gamut.

In addition, this makeup style is also minimalist and natural, so it easily saves time and money on cosmetics shopping.

How to makeup with 1 lipstick

First you need to clean and moisturize your skin.

Remove makeup and cleanse your skin with a cleanser to ensure your skin is as clean as possible.

After washing your face, pat it dry and apply toner to keep your skin moist and smooth. Next, prepare a lipstick with a color tone that matches the makeup style you are aiming for.

Create blocks

If you've run out of contouring tools, a colored lipstick will work just as well.

All you need to do is apply a little bit of the color to the sides of your nose, under your cheekbones, on your forehead, and on your jawline. Blend it all in with a brush or makeup sponge for a seamless finish.

Eye socket makeup

You can use this same lipstick color as eyeshadow to highlight your eye color.

Just like you would with regular eyeshadow, simply swipe the color all over your lid to the crease and blend it with your fingers or a blending brush. The sheer sheen on this lipstick will create a truly stunning shade on your lids.

Eyelid makeup

Take a small amount of lipstick onto a tapered eyeliner brush and line your upper lash line. Be careful not to smudge the lipstick outside the lash line.

Blush

Applying blush with lipstick is not really common, but try this once and you will definitely be hooked.

Apply a tiny amount of lipstick to the apples of your cheeks and pat it in with your ring finger for an instant flush. This trick will give your face a really healthy look. Choose a lipstick with warm undertones, which is perfect if you have a medium to dark skin tone.

Lipstick

Finally, apply this lipstick on your lips. Simply sweep a few coats of this smooth lipstick on your lips and blot your lips with a tissue for a beautiful finish.

Notes when applying makeup with 1 lipstick

To apply makeup in this style, choose a lipstick color that matches the makeup style you want to achieve. For example, for a natural, bright style, choose peach-pink lipstick; for a classic style, choose dark red lipstick; for a sexy style, you can choose nude lipstick...

In addition, you need to focus on highlighting your eyes and cheeks to create balance for your face. Absolutely do not forget to clean and moisturize your skin before applying makeup.

You should also spread the lipstick evenly on your skin to make your makeup look more natural.
