Simple pink glitter lipstick is delightful for summer fun and bold shades provide that extra pop. There are several tools you will need to achieve this makeup look.

For a more professional application technique Little Miss Makeup provides this how-to. By beginning with a lip liner and painting on both the lipstick and the glitter lipstick, you end up with a sleek finish. You can also read their step by step guide.
Vintage or Tacky is begins chatty and if you’re not a fan stick with it or skip ahead. Her beauty tutorial offers simple eye makeup and a 3D glitter lips finish.

Temporary lip tattoos are a clean and new way to apply lip makeup. Kandee Johnson shares the wonderful story of how Violent Lips was invented. They also come in a wide range of amazing colours and designs.
The only issue may be trimming the lip tattoos to fit your lips but they’re worth it. We recommend that you measure them with the white side facing the mirror, unlike this video. You’ll be able to see more clearly which line fits your lip.
We highly recommend giving them a whirl. They’re long lasting and look great!
If 3D wasn’t enough for you and tattoo sticking didn’t grab your attention, take it up a notch with rhinestone lips. Klaire de Lys has lots of top tips to get this out-there look.
She recommends an eye primer, rather than a lip primer, as it has more staying power. You can use whichever colour you choose and she also suggests using your liner to tidy your lips as the primer has already provided your base. She then uses eyelash glue to apply the rhinestones.
