This guide is for anyone looking to enhance their lip makeup with precise definition and long-lasting wear. The Rimmel Lasting Finish 8HR Lip Liner in Underground delivers up to 8 hours of stay-put color, thanks to its creamy, blendable formula and high color payoff. While it excels at outlining and emboldening your lipstick, remember its primary role is definition rather than standalone full lip coverage.

The Rimmel Lasting Finish 8HR Lip Liner is designed for effortless application and long-lasting results. To use, ensure your lips are clean and moisturized.
Define Your Lip Line: Starting from the cupid's bow, gently trace the natural outline of your upper lip, then move to the lower lip, connecting the corners. The pointed pencil tip allows for precise control, helping you correct asymmetry and achieve your desired shape.
Enhance Lipstick Wear: For extended lipstick wear, lightly shade in your entire lip area after outlining. This creates a base that helps your lipstick adhere better and intensifies its color payoff. The creamy texture makes this step smooth and comfortable.
Prevent Feathering: The long-wearing formula acts as a barrier, preventing lipsticks, especially creamier or glossier formulas, from bleeding or feathering into fine lines around the mouth. This is particularly effective with the shade "Underground" which, as part of the purple family, can complement a range of berry or deep nude lipsticks.
Blend for Seamless Finish: Its blendable quality allows for a soft transition between the liner and your chosen lipstick, ensuring a natural, polished look. You can also lightly smudge the liner for a softer, diffused effect before applying lipstick or gloss.
Example: For a bold evening look, outline your lips with the Rimmel Lasting Finish 8HR Lip Liner in Underground, then fill in with a matching berry or plum lipstick. For a subtle day look, simply outline and blend slightly inward before applying a tinted balm or clear gloss.
The Rimmel Lasting Finish 8HR Lip Liner is ready to use directly out of the packaging. No special setup is required.
This lip liner is highly compatible with a wide range of lip products:
Lipsticks: It pairs perfectly with all types of lipsticks, from matte to satin to cream finishes, helping to define the lip shape and extend wear.
Lip Glosses: Can be used to create a defined edge under lip gloss, preventing it from migrating outside the lip line.
Other Liners/Pencils: Can be layered with other lip pencils for custom shades or ombré effects.
Skin Tone: The "Underground" shade, being in the Purple colour family, is versatile and can complement various skin tones.
To maintain the quality and performance of your lip liner:
Sharpening: As it features a pointed pencil tip, regular sharpening with a cosmetic sharpener designed for makeup pencils is necessary to maintain precision. Sharpen gently to avoid breakage.
Storage: Always replace the cap securely after each use to prevent the tip from drying out or breaking. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to preserve its creamy texture.
Hygiene: For best hygiene, avoid sharing your lip liner with others. If you experience any irritation, discontinue use.
