It’s a bit like working with mascara. When I pull the wand out of the tube, I rub it against the lip of the tube to eliminate any type of excess, as well as then location the very first swipe of color in the center of my bottom lip. Then, I just kinda move it around…either by scrubing my lips together, or moving the lipstick around with a finger (you get about a minute before it totally dries). After that, I take whatever stays on the applicator, as well as utilize that to trace the edges as well as fill in the corners.
