Hi, my name is Taylor Babaian. I'm a celebrity makeup artist, and today I'm going to show you how to keep your lips looking fresh and young. So one of the easiest and fastest ways to make your lips look fresh and young is by choosing the right lip color. What you want to avoid is colors that are too dark as well as too matte because that will instantly age you. Instead you want to choose colors that have a little bit of pink and that will add instant youthfulness as well as choosing the right texture and the right lip product. So you want to choose products that have hyaluronic acid, some collagen that will instantly plump your lips as well as make them look fresh and hydrated. So to give Bianca that youthful lip I'm going to use L'Oreal Paris Colour Riche Lip Balm in Rose Elixir. So I'm choosing rose for Bianca because it really does a little hint of pink. It doesn't have to be bright pink. It just needs a little bit of pink in it to help really give that lip a lovely youthful tone. So when you're working the moisturizers in, it really does help to fill in the lines. It really plumps the lips. It kind of gives back that baby lip that you used to have when you were a child where your lips were nice and full. As you get older, lips do have a tendency to come back and minimize and we don't want to do that. We want to make sure that we plump them right back out. Whenever I'm working with my celebrity clients and they are really looking for that quick youthful look or they just want to look like they're ten years younger, instantly I'll add a little bit of pink cheek and a pink really dewy mouth and a very neutral eye and instantly they'll look ten years younger. So we've finished Bianca's youthful lip and all we did was really give her a nice pink really dewy lip color and it really added radiance and youthfulness to her mouth just by adding that lip color. So there you have it, that's how you keep lips looking fresh and young. I'm Taylor Babaian. Thanks for watching.
