Learn how to apply Maybelline Lifter Liner, the creamy, moisturizing lip liner that shapes, defines, and enhances your lips with smooth, hydrating color.

For natural lip definition:

Start at the center of your upper lip and trace along your natural lip line using light strokes.
Trace the bottom lip next, starting at the center of the lip and lining outwards, toward the corners.
Connect the corners, and then blend slightly with your fingertip or a lip brush for a soft, diffused edge.
Pair with your lip makeup of choice, applying it within your lip liner outline.

For an overlined, fuller lip look:
To subtly enhance lip volume, trace just outside your natural lip line, starting with an “X” on your cupid’s bow, and lining across the outer edge of your top lip.
On your bottom lip, start at the center, gliding Lifter Liner just outside your lip contours.
Apply lipstick or lip gloss to enhance your overlined lips.


For a soft, satin lip look worn alone:
Outline your lips as usual, then fill in the entire lip with the pigmented, creamy lip liner formula. For more precise application, use the tip with short strokes, or use the side of the tip for wider coverage.

For pairing with gloss or lipstick:
Line and shape your lips with Lifter Liner to create your desired outline and lip effect.
Soften the inner edge so the lip color blends seamlessly.
Layer with Lifter Gloss or Serum Lipstick for added shine, dimension, and longer-lasting wear.

Pro Tips:
How to sharpen: Lifter Liner is a sharpenable lip liner. Use a cosmetic-grade sharpener and twist gently to maintain a precise tip without breakage.
How to remove: The long-lasting lip liner formula removes easily with micellar water or an oil-based makeup remover. Gently swipe a soaked cotton pad or ball across the lips, avoiding excessive tugging.
