Pat McGrath Labs Lip Sculpt + Shade Contour Duo 1.2g - Midnight Magenta

Use the liner to outline and define your lips first. Then, use the lipstick to fill in the color. You can also use the liner to slightly over-line for a fuller look or to blend the edges of the lipstick for a softer effect.

The formula includes moisturizing ingredients like avocado oil and pink purslane to combat dryness. However, if you have very sensitive lips, it's always recommended to patch-test first.

Thanks to the Permalock Technology, the product is designed for long-wear and is smudge and transfer-proof, typically lasting through meals and daily activities.

Yes, you can use each end independently. The liner can be used on its own for a matte definition, and the lipstick can be applied for a smooth, satin finish.

For best results, use an oil-based makeup remover or a dedicated lip makeup remover to ensure complete and gentle removal.

This product is available in a range of shades, including "Elson Extreme," "Pink," "Naked Blush," "Shockolate Brown," and "Black," in addition to "Midnight Magenta."

Ensure the liner or lipstick has been twisted up sufficiently. If it feels dry, it may need to be retracted and exposed to air briefly or have the tip gently warmed against the back of your hand.

Allow the product to fully set for a minute after application. Ensure lips are not excessively oily or coated with a heavy balm before application. Reapply liner for extra definition if needed.

Ensure the lipstick end is fully utilized as it is designed to be more hydrating. Apply a very thin layer of lip balm before the duo, letting it absorb first. Ensure the liner is not applied too heavily.
