Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup (First Use & Application):
- Prep Lips: Gently exfoliate your lips to remove any dry skin. Follow with a thin layer of hydrating lip balm and allow it to absorb for a few minutes.
- Optional: Lip Liner: For enhanced precision and wear, outline your lips with a lip liner matching the Dubonnet shade. For a fuller look, you can also fill in your entire lip with the liner.
- Apply Lipstick: Apply the MACXimal Sleek Satin Lipstick directly from the bullet, starting from the center of your upper lip and following the natural curve outwards. Repeat for the lower lip.
- Blot (Optional): For a slightly more muted look or to increase wear time, gently blot your lips with a tissue after the first application and then apply a second thin layer.
Compatibility:
- This lipstick is compatible with most lip primers, lip liners, and lip glosses. It pairs particularly well with MAC Lip Pencils for definition.
- Suitable for use with various skin types, though individual sensitivities may vary.
Care:
- Storage: Store the lipstick in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, which can alter its texture and efficacy.
- Hygiene: Always recap the lipstick securely after each use to prevent it from drying out and to protect it from dust and debris. Avoid sharing your lipstick to maintain hygiene.
- Cleaning: If the lipstick bullet gets smudged on the outside, gently wipe the casing with a clean, dry cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals.
