Why is it that whenever I put on lipstick it looks terrible and the cracks in my lips are very accentuated? I really love wearing lipstick but I can't ever wear it because my lips look very chapped and cracky.I have tried exfoliating with sugar and olive oil but it didn't really do anything.

I exfoliate with my toothbrush every time I brush my teeth, which is twice a day. I run my toothbrush across my lips about 1 minute on both the top and bottom each. Then I use chapstick until ready to apply my lipstick. Lasts all day for me.

That happens to me also with the recent purchase of a peachish color..I suppose nude color.. My lips seem gross with the application of it but when lip gloss is applied right after, the cracks just dissipate from existence. Oh, and I pass my finger over my lips after applying the lipstick and lip gloss to make it seep in or whatnot. Really helps.

Like Shanae said...exfoliate.
a lot of people forget to take care of their lips like they do their face.
you could also use sugar, honey and some type of oil (olive..coconut)

This is the lipstick that I use (elf mosturizing lipstick) and this is the color filly & fabulous and it mosturizes my lips but the cracks in my lips seem to disappear after I put it on and I use other colors. it's a really good lipstick to conceal the cracks that most people have. and it smells great too 😗
