Hydrating Lip Balm

Our application guide has been used for decades on actresses to give them perfect camera-ready lips that last throughout a long day of filming.

1. Prepare Lips

• Make sure your lips are clean and free of dryness.
• Hydrate lips with a small amount of your favorite balm and let set for a minute.
• Blot excess balm and apply a touch of foundation to the edges of your lips. This will lock in the lipstick’s color and extend its wear.
• Draw in the natural edge of your lips with the Bésame lipstick’s tip sharp point. This will keep the lipstick from bleeding out of the edges of the lip line.
• Do not overdraw your lip line since this may create an artificial look.

2. Apply Bésame Lipstick

• Using the flat side of your Bésame lipstick, starting at the highest point of the lips directly under the nostrils.
• Fill in with color, working towards the corner of the lips on one side, then from the center out to the other corner.
• Apply one coat of color filling in the top and bottom of your lips.
• If you go outside the lip line, use your finger or a cotton swab to correct it and then blend the area with a bit of your foundation.
• Press your lips together lightly to distribute the color.
• For a stronger finish, apply a final coat in the center of the lip.
• Lastly, use a tissue to gently blot the lips to seal in the color. Blot twice. Add one final coat with one more blot to finish.
