Cover your lips with concealer before you apply lip colour to neutralize your lips and make the lipstick colour pop. The natural pigmentation of your lips can interfere with the colour of lipstick, making it appear much different from what you thought you were buying. To preserve the original tone of the lipstick, lightly cover your lips with concealer, blend it with a sponge, and then apply lipstick over it.
