What is Overlining in Makeup?
Overlining in makeup is the process to make lips more fuller and pouty. The process gives natural volume to the lips. Many women do it to achieve pouty lips in some simple steps.
Firstly Understand Your Lip Shape
Before starting to line your lips using lipsticks, understand your lip shape first. Everyone has a different lip shape, so once you understand the ame, it becomes easy to decide where to begin.
Choose Your Colour
Decide whether you want a nude shade or bold lip colour. Choose a lip liner that matches your lipstick and select a light shade you are comfortable with when drawing your shape.
Moisturise Your Lips and Fill the Outer Corners
Firstly moisturise your lips, take your lip liner and start to draw a line in the outer corner of your lips.
Make X at the Cupid Bow
Once you are done with the outer corner and edges, make an X using a lip liner in your cupid bow. This helps your lips look even.
Fill Your Lips
Using the same lip liner lightly fills your lips to ensure a natural finish and ensures consistency in your lip shape.
Apply Your Lipstick
Take your lipstick that matches your lip liner and fill your lips to give a complete finish and full coverage.
Use Lip Gloss and Highlighter to Give Dimension
You can apply your favourite gloss to add dimension to your lips. Or you can apply a concealer or highlighter in the inner portion of the upper and lower lips to make them appear fuller.
