Thanks so much for this video Koren, it was very informative and so helpful! I was wondering if there were certain "rules" when it comes to wearing different finishes with different eye looks. For example, if I had a smokey eye would a neutral matte lipstick look better than a lustre? Do you know if there are any rules (kind of like to play down the lips when the eyes are dramatic) to mixing finishes with neutral, dramatic, smokey, natural, ect. eye looks?

yeah I dont have any Lacquers at all as I find the formulation extremely drying to the lips.

Hey dear, I was wondering if perhaps you have some swatches for the lip lacquers? I've really been interested, but I don't want to invest in something that could be a hit or miss :(

when ever you feel ready and comfortable in wearing it. You start by just wearing lipgloss every now and then. Of course if there's a special occassion like your Prom or Winter Dance, youd want to wear a little lip color. So when ever you think your ready.

hey Lancs - its between a luster and a glze. Its pretty sheer when you apply with a high shine.

What's a good age to start wearing lipstick? I'm 17, but I think I should at least wait until 21 or something....or like special events... Very informative video! Thx!
