To be able to decipher the new lip makeup technique, we attended the master class of Mario Dedivanovic, shared live on his Instagram account. During his two-hour session, the maestro unveiled his latest beauty technique that he uses to reshape and enhance the contours of his clients' lips. Using a single lip liner, he shows how to “lift” your mouth naturally without going through botox or hyaluronic acid. So what is this new method? In a few words, the idea is to draw the line of the upper lip as if doing a classic lip contour, then to enhance the line of the lower lip by going towards the outer corners of the mouth to give the illusion of a more voluminous look.

Perform a lip scrub

Before “lifting” the lips of his model, Mario Dedivanovic opted for a quick exfoliation to eliminate dead cells and facilitate the application of the following make-up products. Because a nourished and well hydrated mouth retains lipstick better and longer. Naturally fragile and particularly exposed, it can quickly become dry and chapped. The solution ? Perform a home scrub as often as needed.

Choose a fairly pigmented lip pencil

After exfoliating, Mario takes a pigmented and fairly rigid lip pencil. For the contour to be as natural as possible, it is important to avoid creamy and light products, because they risk making lines too thick, which is not at all the goal of the “lip lift”.

However, this gesture should be avoided for the lower lip. Otherwise, you risk making your pretty face sad, says the king of contouring. On the other hand, it enhances the contour of this area without leaving the natural contour of the mouth.

Apply a classic lipstick

Finally, the maestro ends his master class by applying a lipstick of the same color as the pencil. Moreover, to blur the latter towards the inside of the mouth, he uses a blending brush. This trick guarantees a more natural and worked final result.
