1. Start Anew:
Exfoliate your lips gently to remove dryness, then apply a light layer of Shahrazad Lip Balm or your favorite hydrating base. Allow it to absorb fully.
2. Define Your Destiny:
For a polished finish, outline your lips with a matching lip liner to shape and prevent feathering. Start at the cupid’s bow and trace outward.
3. Apply the Matte Majesty:
Glide the Shahrazad Matte Lipstick directly from the bullet or with a lip brush for precision. Begin at the center of the lips and sweep outward toward the corners.
4. Perfect the Edges:
Use a small brush or concealer around the lips to sharpen lines and correct any smudges. This step adds drama and clarity—just like Shahrazad's every word.
5. Set the Story:
Blot with a tissue, then reapply a second layer for bold, lasting color. This technique locks in the pigment and amplifies intensity.
✨ Shahrazad's Pro Tips:
"For ombré lips, blend a darker tone at the edges and a lighter one at the center.
Want a velvety blur? Tap with fingertips instead of swiping.
Pair with kohl-rimmed eyes for a classic Arabian-inspired glam look."
