Tips to make this liquid lipstick work. Prep lips first. You need to exfoliate and moisturize your lips so it won't emphasize textures and won't dry your lips. For the liquid lipstick it is a thicker and a creamier consistency so no need to apply alot. Trust me the thinner applied the better. As for the stickynees well this happens to all but wanna know how to get rid of it? This is just for the two of us so come a bit closer.... The secret is when the lipstick is thinly applied let it dry then what you have to do is lick the lipstick on your lips. When your lipstick is fully coated with saliva let it dry again and you'll never fell something sticky again
