Smearing technique
Cover the lip color: Start from the inside of the lips, apply the concealer product evenly on the lips with a concealer brush or makeup egg in the way of gently dot and press, gradually smudging to the edge of the lips, focusing on covering the darker parts of the lips, such as the dark area around the lips or the uneven lip color area, so that the overall color of the lips becomes even.
