Hey awesome ones, how many of you are noticing upper lip wrinkles
and even downturned lips? Well I have some fixes and some treatments for those.
I can't wait to show this video to you and it all starts in just a few seconds.
Now when I say treatments I'm not talking about botox or even lip fillers and hey you
know if you want to do that go right ahead, no I'm talking about topical kind of fixes
I guess and just to be clear I've never had botox and I actually never plan on having it.
Now let's start with my night time routine. What I use is this very very clever
product it's from strivectin. It has actually two products in one and for the upper lip
I am using this end here which is, let me just read it here, it's the vertical line treatment and
let me show you how it works. I just brush on the treatment every night after I've washed my face
and then I brush it on and I smooth it out with my fingers. Now the other end is the lip plumping
lip treatment and if you have thin lips like I do this helps to plump them up a little bit.
Now another thing I do is I rub my upper lips with the small part of this jade roller
and I kind of work it in you know working in the product there and I also go over my marionette
lines for a bit of smoothing out there too. And I always do this before bed and I never eat or
drink anything afterwards. Now just before I go into how to upturn a downturned lip
I just want to mention to you that the products that I'm talking about in this video and also the
makeup lip products they're going to be below the video in the description and also in the
comments. Now for my next tip and who's with me with the downturned lips and the downturn mouth,
is that all we need like here we are we're trying to put on a happy face and our lips are and the
aging process of course, is making us look a little bit miserable. Well I got some tips and tricks for
that and it all starts with some concealer. So I'm using bye bye under eye concealer by IT cosmetics
with a little brush and this is before I put on my foundation. I just go into the downturn
on both sides and while I'm at it I lightly go into both marionette lines and fill them
in a bit too. Now when that's dry that's when I put my foundation over top and I like to use a small
sponge for this and by the way if you like videos like this and also on skin care and fashion don't
forget to subscribe and also click on the bell. And also a reminder that every Wednesday at 8pm
eastern standard time I'm live and we kind of talk like girlfriends at 8 p.m eastern standard time
at amazon.com/shop/awesomeover50 and by the way the replays of all my old live events are also there
and also my storefront where I sell everything from makeup to fashion and even some household
goods. And now let's get back to the tutorial and what I'm going to be using is a sharpened
lip liner. This one is from NYX and the color is tea and cookies. There are lots and lots
of other colors available. I'm just starting slightly in from the outer part of my lips,
not right at the ends and then I just continue to outline my lips. Now to fill in the lips I
love the NYX lingerie XXL lipstick and this is available in many colors as well and it has a
great applicator and this lipstick stays on for hours. Okay so when I know the lipstick is dry
we have to put on a little bit of lip gloss to give it a glow and also because this lipstick
is a little bit drying and I think that's because of its staying power. Now I just dab on some NYX
Butter Gloss, again available in lots of different colors and smooth it out with a lip brush.
And if you want to see me put a full face of makeup on I'm going to put a link at the end
screen of this video so you can take a look at the tutorial. Now let's take a look at the
two different lips. The first one is how I used to apply my lip liner without the concealer
and here it is the new way. Notice how it really did help to turn that frown upside down especially
with the concealer and the foundation over top and it's giving me a friendlier face. And here
I am with the finished full-faced look and don't forget the best thing that you can wear every day
is your big smile. And you know a lot of times maybe we're just checking out with a cashier or
somebody delivered something to our front door and we're just sort of catching them as they're
walking away. Share your smile. You know it just might, just brighten someone's day.
And I notice these days too a lot of times when I'm on the phone and I'm on hold like today
I was actually on hold for 45 minutes and when the person came on the phone I knew
it wasn't their fault and they were so friendly and helpful and I said to them send me a survey,
send me a survey because I'm going to give you all tens and I just know that you know we don't
have to do big things every day we can do a lot of little things just to help this world to be
a better place. And again share our smiled err smiles I should say and it's all part of keeping it awesome.
