Lip markers
Does anyone use lip stain markers on clients? I swear by them in my personal routine, so I would love to carry some in my kit but I am worried about whether or not they dry out after sanitzing, and if alcohol wiping is even sanitary enough to even use them on multiple people.

I don't feel alcohol would work on that material to kill virus, at best you may mess up the tip and at worst you may not get all the germs. Maybe if you "stain" a q-tip or disposable wand and then use it on the lips...? I don't have any to try here. let me know if it works.

You can try the Benefit Benetint, the Tarte lip and cheek stains, or the Stila lip and cheek stains (they come in a click-pen form that you can put on your palette and use from there).

I actually tried Cynna's q-tip trick, when I took out the ink holder inside the marker it was soaking, i could actually squeeze the ink onto my palette and Then use a lip brush. I use revlon bitten, and ive tried benetint and vincent longo stains, sounds crazy but i think the colors and stay are as good or better in revlon - they are also crazy cheap since big lots started selling them for 1.99 lol. I'm going to squeeze the ink into little dropper bottles! Feb 17 13 02:36 pm Link |
