It's one of the likes of star makeup artist Pat McGrath. Already in 2013 she had wanted to launch the trend of mega glitter mouths on the autumn-winter Dior show. The reception was dubitative and did not conquer the crowds.
Three years later, the test is transformed: creators, model tops and other stars strut on the red carpet with lips barely more discreet than a disco ball.

A monumental buzz on Pinterest and Instagram and voilà! The glitter mouth is the must of the month.

What you need to know before daring to smile

Make Up for Ever, Pat McGrath, Motives, Bitchslap Cosmetics offer glitter in all colors. Red obviously, brown, pink but also gold and silver, even blue and purple for the more adventurous.
In speaking of recklessness, one may wonder who is enough to dare to smile with a thousand lights.

The creators of the Glitter Lips kits, £ 12.50 on www.beautyboulevard.com , Paule and Rachel unveil their tips to be up to date with no ridicule.

When and why did you launch Glitter Lips?

Paule and Rachel: We imagined and launched this range in our hair and beauty salon in 1983, after seeing the glittering red mouth of singer Jessie J. We loved this sparkling make-up. When we wanted to wear it we realized that the existing products were so difficult to apply that they were more reserved for professionals. Glitter Lips is for both novices and confirmed make-up artists.

Is the glitter smile done for all women? All day ?

Paule and Rachel: It's perfect for fascinating and seductive women, and as we are all there is no reason to hesitate. Select a color that is consistent with the place, time, or event. For example "Hula Tallulah" is an orange rose that blends perfectly with the holidays, a festival. For the evening prefer dark and deep shades more sensual and provocative.

How to apply and make glitter lips last?

Paule and Rachel: Start with a lip scrub , then dry them well. Apply our gloss on the lower lip and wait until it becomes transparent. Use the sponge at the end of the applicator to apply the scintillating powder. Repeat the operation on the upper lip. Finish by removing the excess glitter with the brush. The result is eight hours.

Editor's note: You can also use a transparent or colored gloss and apply it with a glitter brush. By choosing a different shade of these, you will get a 3D effect. Use tape to remove excess shine and also to remove makeup .
