Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Proper setup, understanding compatibility, and routine care will ensure your Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Liner performs optimally and lasts longer.
Setup
- Initial Sharpening: Before first use, ensure your lip liner is sharpened to a fine point. A sharp pencil is crucial for precise application and helps prevent breakage during use.
- Lip Preparation: For the smoothest application and best color payoff, ensure your lips are clean, exfoliated, and moisturized. A light lip balm can be applied and blotted away if your lips are dry, but avoid heavy balms that can interfere with the liner's matte finish.
Compatibility
- Other Lip Products: This lip liner is designed to be highly compatible with a wide range of lipsticks, liquid lipsticks, and lip glosses, especially those from the Anastasia Beverly Hills line. Its matte finish and feather-resistant properties make it an ideal base or outlining product.
- Skin Types: Suitable for all skin types. Users with very dry lips may benefit from additional lip preparation.
Care
- Sharpening: Regularly sharpen your lip liner using a high-quality cosmetic sharpener. A blunt pencil will not provide precise lines and can lead to uneven application. Turn the pencil gently in the sharpener to avoid excessive product waste or breakage.
- Storage: Store the lip liner in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Extreme heat can soften the wax-based formula, while extreme cold can make it brittle and prone to breaking during sharpening or application.
- Cleaning: If the pencil tip becomes soiled, gently wipe it with a clean tissue. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals directly on the pencil, as this can affect the wooden casing or the formula's integrity.
