I’m a makeup artist – here is the best lipstick for smaller lips

A professional make-up artist has lifted the lid on her favorite lipstick for those with smaller lips – and it comes all the way from France.

The helpful tip was shared in a recent TikTok video post by Mallory Ossesan American makeup artist who works in Australia and Bali and has amassed more than 100,000 followers on the social media platform.

Oxen the music video began explaining that she believes she has “no definition” around her lips, and found that the lipstick she discovered really helped her, and might also “change your life.”

The product in question?

The $29 Bisou Balm from Violette FRwhich is advertised as a combination between a ‘sheer matte lipstick’ and moisturizing lip balm.

Osses showed off what her lips looked like before applying the lipstick, which she says gives her lips natural definition

Osses started the video by showing viewers how to apply the lipstick, which she first applied to the outer corners of her lips.

It’s a trick she uses to make them look fuller.

She applied the lipstick to one side of the lips and left the other side bare, showing off the stunning side-by-side difference.

“Look at that, look at that little bit of definition that makes my lips look full but natural,” she said.

The makeup artist finished applying the lipstick, giving her lips nice definition and a light pink glow.

“It makes my lips look full, but natural,” she shared. “It doesn’t look like a topline, it doesn’t look like I’m wearing anything.”

“This is perfect for someone like me who has small lips, and I don’t like to draw attention to my lips,” Osses continued.

The content creator even admitted that she never wears red lipstick.

“They just look like your lips,” she enthused about the Violet lipstick.

One of her favorite things about the product was its lasting power.

“And because it disappears over the course of the day, it doesn’t look like you’ve gone from having lips and contouring your lips to having your natural lips,” Osses explained.

‘Subtle definition makes such a difference.’

And many of her viewers seemed to agree — in the comments section of her clip, some admitted how drastic the difference seemed.

“You may have just changed my life,” one person wrote.

Another agreed: ‘This looks softer than a hard liner. They have their place, but I like this option.”

“To the people who say ALL lipsticks do this: no, they don’t. The ones that give a defined edge are striking or wear matte all day, not sheer or subtle. I totally understand this excitement!’ someone else typed.
