Lipstick has always been an important part of the makeup routine. It can enhance your presence. But do you know that excessive use of it can also harm your lips? In such a situation, today we are going to tell you some such mistakes which you often make while applying lipstick, so let's know.

Wearing dark lipstick every day

Choosing the right lipstick shade is very important. Regular application of dark shade can harm your lips as it contains heavy amounts of magnesium and chromium. Light-colored lipstick is a great option to enhance your everyday makeup look.

Straight lipstick

It's a good idea to apply a lip balm with SPF before lipstick, especially if you'll be spending time outdoors or in direct sunlight. Look for a lip balm with a high SPF rating, ideally SPF 30 or higher. Apply lip balm on your lips and let it soak in for a few minutes before applying lipstick.

Sleeping in lipstick

Many times we do not feel like removing our lipstick while sleeping. Sleeping with it on can dry out your lips overnight, especially if they are of the matte type. This can lead to chapped or cracked lips, which can be painful and uncomfortable.

Always use matte lipstick

Taking a short break from lipstick is equally important. Using lip gloss or lip tint instead of matte lipstick can be a great option if you prefer a more moisturizing, natural-looking finish to your lips.

Do not do lip care at night

Your lips also need care just like other parts of the body. Our skin recovers the most at night. Try applying lip balm or lip mask at night. Lip Balm provides the necessary moisture to your lips and prevents dryness, breakouts, etc.
