After base makeup, during the lip makeup step
Complete your base with foundation and concealer, finish your eye makeup, then apply your lip product. If you line your lips first with a lip liner, the tint will stay put and look crisp all day.
Application technique for a glossy finish
Start at the center of your lips and blend outward for a natural gradient effect. Because it's an oil-based formula, build up color gradually in thin layers rather than applying a heavy coat all at once. If your lips are dry, prep with a lip balm, gently blot with tissue, then apply the tint.
How to wear Earth Maroon for different occasions
- Office look: Dab a small amount onto the inner lips for a soft, understated brown tone
- Everyday: Apply a sheer layer all over for a natural flush of color
- Evening out: Fill in the entire lip for a bold, luxurious maroon statement
Makeup pairings that complement Earth Maroon
This brown-toned maroon pairs beautifully with terracotta or warm brown eyeshadow for a cohesive warm-toned look. Layer it with a peach blush to brighten your entire complexion. For a more polished vibe, keep eyes neutral with nude beige shadow and let your lips take center stage.
Storage and cleansing tips to maintain the glossy finish
Because it's an oil-infused formula, the pigment and oil may separate over time—just give it a gentle shake before use. Store in a cool place away from direct sunlight and heat, as the packaging is transparent. To remove, soak a cotton pad with a lip-specific remover, press it onto your lips for a few seconds, then gently wipe away.
