With age, the lips change. An old model that has become a makeup artist shares its stunning method to restore shape, color and volume to a mouth that has lost its superb.
The mirror does not cheat. Over time, the lips become thinner. Their color is diminished, the small wrinkles invite themselves. And what was luscious yesterday seems a little tired today. For many women, this change is frustrating. The lipsticks no longer stand as before, the pencil overflows and the rendering is often disappointing. Some turn to injections, others lower their arms. But Morgen Schick, she found another way.
Mannequin for years in New York and makeup artist followed by thousands of women on Tiktok, Morgen Schick saw all the techniques pass. At 58, she is now experiencing the smallest corners of a face, the traps to avoid as well as the right reflexes to adopt. Under his videos, the comments fuse. We constantly ask her how she made to keep such a drawn mouth. “This is the number one question that I am asked”, she lets go. She talks about this pivotal moment, around fifties, when the mouth begins to change. “If you lose the color of your lips and they seem smaller, this tip is made for you”she says. She remembers her years in the studios, when the makeup artists were trying to cheat with waxy eyelids. “We completely saw wax”, she said, grimacing. This kind of method, she has groaned her with her kit for a long time. Today, it does otherwise. And it works.
The specialist does not speak here of surgery, nor a miracle tip. She talks about a simple product, which she holds between her fingers like a pen. It is not a lipstick, it is not a pencil either. She describes him as a “lip stain”, a lip ink, fine, light, almost imperceptible. She chooses it in a nude shade, close to its natural color. A product which it applies slightly above its natural line, “As if I was contouring”, she said. The goal is not to thicken visibly, but to recreate a subtle volume effect. Once this route is done, it fills the interior with a pink shade, then adds a balm or a gloss. Nothing could be simpler.
This product is sold by many brands and at all prices. The important thing is texture and color. The nude blends into the complexion, it does not contrast. It structures without imposing itself. In short, this is what makes the result credible. A gesture to remember!
