The NYX Slim Lip Liner Pencil in 'Cocoa' excels at creating a defined lip shape and enhancing the longevity of your lip color. Its creamy formula allows for effortless drawing, whether you're creating a subtle outline or fully filling in your lips.For Definition: Begin by tracing the natural contour of your lips, starting from the Cupid's bow and working outwards. For a slightly fuller look, you can ever so slightly overline your natural lip line. The 'Cocoa' shade works beautifully under nude, brown, or even deep berry lipsticks, providing depth and preventing color from migrating.As a Base: Fill in your entire lip area with the liner. This creates a uniform base that helps lipstick adhere better and makes its color appear more vibrant. It also acts as a 'grip' to significantly extend the wear time of any lipstick or gloss applied over it. The 'Cocoa' shade is particularly effective under warm-toned lipsticks or for creating a neutral, matte brown lip on its own.Real-World Application: Imagine preparing for a long day or an evening event. Applying the 'Cocoa' liner first ensures your lipstick stays put through meals and conversations, maintaining a clean edge. For a quick, polished everyday look, simply apply the liner, blend slightly with your finger, and add a clear gloss for a subtle, defined pout.
