I am about to give up on red and dark lipstick, because no matter what I do, no matter which products I use, the stuff has started feathering on my like a mofo. For any of you younguns reading this, I’m talking about the phenomenon of the color bleeding into the teeny fine lines around the lips. This only recently started happening to me, and it’s depressing, partly because it means I have fine lines for the lipstick to seep into, but also because I’ve recently found so many great burgundies and reds that work on me, like OCC Lip Tar in Strutter, MAC Dubonnet, and UD Gash. And it’s not limited to lipsticks — I’ve noticed this happening even with my more pigmented glosses. I’ve tried lipliner, I’ve tried lip primer, and nothing works. If there are any Fine Lined ladies out there who have tips to share, I hope you will!
