Things to Remember while choosing the best lip liner –

-Whichever best lip liner you choose, do buy a “LIP BRUSH” – for a smooth finish.

-“Feathered” lips are a point of disaster – with the lipstick bleeding across your lips and giving a cringe-worthy look. Are you going to like that? This is where the role of a drugstore lip liner comes into play. There are many brands of best drugstore lip liner (or anti-feathering lip liners) available which moisturise and protect your lips. They also double up as a lip primer and a lip filler (which helps extend the wear of your lipstick or gloss) –

• Milani Anti Feather Lip Liner, Transparent (This paraben-free lip primer and lip filler is enriched with vitamins and hydrators to keep your lips soft and supple)

• L’Oreal Paris Colour Riche Lip Liner, Lasting Plum 772 (creamy, anti-feathering lip liner)

• Prestige Waterproof Automatic Lip Liner, Nude

• Revlon Colorstay Lip Liner, Nude (It has a built-in sharpener, it blends easily and prevents bleeding)
