Applying LIP-INK® Liquid Lipsticks


Step-By-Step Directions for Best Results

Begin by purifying the lips with OFF Solution. This cleanses your lips, creates a smooth surface for application, and helps with the exfoliation process.


Splash with water and pat dry.

If you usually line your lips, frame the lips with the LIP-INK® Liner. Any of the LIP-INK® Colors can become an instant lip liner with the use of a lip liner brush to be reused as needed.

Massage a small amount of Shine Moisturizer into the lips until thoroughly absorbed.



Take a tissue or dark cloth and wipe the color applicator tip to control the amount of color you want. This gives you the ability to control the shade of color desired.

You are now ready to begin the colorization process, to create over one million guaranteed smearproof colors, by layering to suit your natural healthy lifestyle. Use ASESIOD (A Smooth Even Stroke In One Direction). This insures that your color goes on even Up to three layers. FEEL THE TINGLE This is the herbs, mints and botanicals. Finish with a layer of Lip Shine Moisturizer if desired.

Tips for Applying LIP-INK® Liquid Lip Colors


Not happy with your lip color or you want a lighter shade? Be sure to blot the tip applicator with a tissue before applying your color. That puts you in the drivers seat when it comes to the shade of color you want. You control the botanical pigment of your application.

Also available are Lip-Ink Lip Liner, Brow Liner and Eye Liner with the same Guaranteed Smearproof & Waterproof qualities. Follow the application instructions and always remember to hydrate the lips before color application, by applying any one of our 100 wax free lip moisturizers first. Our botanical color blends are liquid, like water "they can spill". With each use, be sure to shake the vial against the palm of your hand until you hear the beads move freely to assure the pigments are blended. (Less is better with our color application, wipe off the excess liquid from the applicator tip and hold upright.)

FEEL THE TINGLE! - it's there to let you know the product is working and usually lasts for just a moment. For added lip hydration and sun protection feel free to apply Lip-Ink® Lip Moisturizers over the top of your color application and throughout the day as needed. LIP INK's 100% Smearproof Lip Color does not require the use of a sealer or lip gloss to be applied over it, at any time. Lip-Ink® Lip Color™ has zero texture. If you are experiencing any grittiness, this is your own lips exfoliating. We recommend that you take the color off and re-apply by following the application instructions. New customers should start with a kit when purchasing any of our guaranteed smearproof color. Our kits contain everything you need to break the color barrier.

Answer

Shake the vial against the palm of your hand rather than in the air until you hear the beads move freely. This technique allows the pigments in the vial to disperse properly after they have settled.

Answer

No, our products are not compatible with other cosmetic company products. Our patented award winning guaranteed smearproof color products are unlike ALL other cosmetic products. Our products, for the lips, face, brows, eyes and cheeks they do not contain lead, propylene glycol, wax, preservative petroleum derivatives, photosensitive colors, coal tar dye colors, common allergens, carcinogenics, glycols, parabens, preservatives, animal fats, and cholesterol or lanolin, unlike all other cosmetic products on the market today.

Answer

Less is better because you can apply as many as three layers to increase the intensity of your color, so you don't want to put all three layers on at once. You can apply less by wiping off as much color as possible, from the applicator against the side of the vial, as you remove the applicator wand from the vial. To go even further you can blot off any additional color on a tissue to reduce the amount of pigment you apply and adjust your color to the shade you desire.

Answer

Hold your vial upright and remove your color slowly, because our lip color is the consistency of water and it can spill and splatter if not used properly.

Answer

You can dip a lip liner brush into our liquid Lip Ink© lip color vial and line your lips with the Lip Ink© color liquid on your lip liner brush. The more layers you apply, the higher the intensity of color can be achieved.

Answer

Our Lip Ink botanical guaranteed smearproof technology is a multi patented encapsulation process, meaning that the botanical color penetrates through water and oil and encapsulates onto your lips, brows, around your eyes, and on your cheeks giving you guaranteed smearproof results This makes the color impervious to both water and oil and allows you to paint the inside, wet area of your lips. No other lip color is capable of this technology, which means no other color will adhere to the inside, wet area of your lips or make your lips appear fuller with no tell-tale line of where the color ends. This actually gives you another of lips that you never had before, revealing fuller lips without needles, plumpers, fillers, and other irritants.

Answer

Since our Lip Ink© colors are in a sheer liquid format, they can be applied to the skin in layers, up to three layers to be exact. You have the ability to layer color to match existing colors of currently used cosmetics and create new ones as you desire. One color over another is different than one color under another and of course you can always use the same color in one, two or three layers to create dimension and definition.

Answer

Our colors are designed with the color wheel in mind. All of our colors are made from the primary colors (yellow, red & blue). Our patented layering process allows you to layer our colors, one over another to achieve your desired color. With the use of our Magic Powders, you can achieve a satin /glitter finish by applying them in between any two layers of color. This allows you to achieve the unique color that fits you, your skin, and your lifestyle.

Answer

You simply take a tissue to the end of your Lip Ink© color applicator and blot off the excess amount of pigment that you desire to reach the color you want. Then test it on the inside of your hand to get the color your desire before applying to the lip. This technique is useful as it allows you to make any color that is too dark for you lighter. For instance, you can take a red to a pink, an orange to a peach, or a full coverage color to a transparent color!

Answer

All or most cosmetic products contain wax. When wax is present in a formula it needs full spectrum preservatives to minimize bacteria growth. Our products are Vegan, Kosher and natural, which means we do not use bees wax, synthetic wax or preservatives. This is good for the environment and good for you! For instance, the average woman ingests 4-9 lbs. of wax in a lifetime (that also includes all of the nasty preservatives bonded to the wax). That's a fact!

Answer

They are also award winning, hold over nine patents, and also meet the guidelines of being organic as they contain less than 3% of inorganic FDA regulated color and sunscreens.

Answer

We have specific products for the cheeks and some of our lip colors can be used in a multitude of areas. For instance, our Chakras and Wood Colors can be used as lip color and/or eye shadow. Our Shimmer Gels, Blushing Gels, Eye Shadow Gels and Magic Powders can be used anywhere on the lips, face, hair, and nails. Any of our lip colors can be used as a lip liner and our brow liners can be used as a lip liner, and to make things easy we also have eleven Lip Ink© Lip Liners that match eleven of our Lip Ink Lip colors.

Lip Ink customers can also participate in our recycling lip color program and get up to two free lip colors a year by following the guidelines listed on our web site at www.lipink.com

Answer

First follow our 3 product ECO system instructions. The best method for application of our lip color products is using ASESOD A smooth, even stroke in one direction. This ensures an even color application, as "back and forth" creates texture.

Answer

Upon first application, you should "Feel the tingle" with maximum hydration and sun protection with each of our Lip Ink© liquid lip colors.

Answer

If you feel any texture upon your first application, you are experiencing natural exfoliation, Lip Ink© color has no feeling. Exfoliation is a natural process your lips may go though from time to time. If you experience this, we recommend that you remove your color and start our three product eco system process over again. Your lips will be smoother and healthier the longer you use Lip Ink© products. Your waxy non compatible lip products are not compatible with our Lip Ink© technology. With Lip Ink© color, your lips are not being covered in wax and preservatives like they were with the lip colorings you have used in the past. Now they have the freedom to become healthy, soft, supple, and natural.

Answer

Yes, occasionally you can use Lip Ink's© Lip Spa Treatment to get your lips into the best shape they have ever been in.

Answer

We recommend that you first try Lip Ink© Herbal off solution with water if that doesn't work. Try a test first with lighter fluid, we have found that it works for just about any fiber the Lip Ink© is spilled on.

Answer

3 years, after that it will still work but it just doesn't have the same herbal bouquet scent it originally had.

Answer

3 months.

Answer

Yes Lip Ink© color technology includes pearl and glitter in the form of natural mica, a fine micron particle size loose mineral power called Magic Powders" that can be applied to the lips, eyes, and face with a method that locks them in with our Lip Ink© guaranteed smearproof seal of approval.

Answer

Yes the same Lip Ink© guaranteed smearproof technology we have for the lips, is also available for the brows, eyes and face.

Answer

We sure can. We start by applying our Lip Ink color "clear" (or a color similar to the skin tone, usually in the wood series) and then apply a loose mineral powder that matches the skin tone. We repeat this process by applying the Lip Ink color "clear" over the mineral powder and go another round, finishing with the loose mineral powder over the last layer of clear. You can follow this procedure in up to 3-4 layers to get to the desired result.

Answer

Our 3 product ECO system, consists of Water, Oil and Botanical blended liquid smearproof color. You need all three, to use our products properly. They are sold to first time users, in complementary kits that allow you to choose your own colors

Answer

Yes, you really do need all three products. Our world famous, award winning "three product ECO system consisting of water, oil and guaranteed smearproof botanical color is necessary for the product to live up to its guarantee. You can purchase Semi-Permanent color kits with all three products present. Lip Ink© Products out perform all other products in their class and they are so unique and different than anything you have ever experienced, that admit that we brought them back from the future for an ECO friendly world.

Answer

Lip Ink© Color can be applied to the lip area directly after a collagen injection waiting is not necessary. Lip Ink© Color does not smear so it can be worn throughout dental or orthodontic work. Lip Ink© color can also be used during Accutane treatments for maximum hydration.

05 Semi-Permanent vs. Long Lasting Lip Color
 
 
GUARANTEED SMEARPROOF or your Money Back!
We at LIP-INK® are so confident about our promise that if you find that your lip color smears we will give you your money back!
 
Semi-Permanent vs. Long Lasting Lip Color

Long Lasting is simply long lasting- nothing more than that!  It means that the lip product is going to last a long time, with no guarantees and no promises to back it up. Long lasting lipsticks usually have descriptive words like touch proof, budge proof, kiss proof, transfer resistant representing long lasting.

Semi-permanent on the other hand is in a world of its own. Created specifically by LIP-INK® International.  Semi-permanent, by definition: means that the product is not only long lasting, it is virtually impossible to smear.  It is 100% smearproof.  You can wear it to bed, shower in it, kiss your children or significant other, and eat an oily meal with drinks with confidence that your lipstick is not going to come off.
 
 
Note: If you find that your lip color is smearing, you are not applying product properly. We would need to test the product to determine if it is in fact smearing.

Apply just like ordinary lipstick, directly to clean, bare dry lips. Unlike our LIP-INK® Classic Liquid Lip Color® , there is no need to shake the product before using because its consistency is like a thick tapioca pudding and it cannot spill. Please note that you do not apply LIP-INK® Lip Moisturizer first. Apply in one even stroke, one direction only "not back and forth" in one or two layers. The thinner you apply the color, the better. For first time use, we suggest that you wipe the tip of the applicator with a tissue before applying to the lips. This will insure that you do not apply too much color to the lips, remember "less is better". For maximum results use LIP-INK® Hyper-Shine® Moisturizer or any of the other LIP-INK® wax free Lip Moisturizers directly over the LIP-INK® LipGel® , Shimmer Gels, Neon LipGel® Lip Stick® (once it has had a moment to set and dry, approximately 5 seconds), and throughout the day to moisturize and condition. Use LIP-INK® Off Herbal Remover to take the color off.

07 Why we are different
 

LIP-INK® Lip Colors are different than ALL other Cosmetics! Because of the technology (covered by nine patents) LIP-INK® Lip Color gives you the ability to apply our lip moisturizer to the lips, both hydrating them and protecting them from sun damage before the first application of color. Our products don't create a drying effect like the other long lasting products on the market; and because we don't need a sealer or lip gloss over the color to keep it smearproof, LIP-INK® Lip Colors have no texture, they feel like you're not wearing any lipstick at all!

APPLYING LIP-INK® COLORS/Ultra Colors/Chakras Colors
 
Always begin by purifying lips with the OFF solution. This not only cleanses but helps with the exfoliation.Splash with water, pat dry 
Massage a small amount of Shine Moisturizer into the lips until thoroughly absorbedIf liner is desired, using the brush provided, frame with LIP-INK® Color now
        To blend pigment, shake vial of color against palm until beads move freely. This is a liquid. Open with care!Wipe all excess from applicator wand

To relaxed lips, using the widest portion of the applicator, apply the desired color with a gentle even pressure. Move in one direction only. Do not blot. The slower the application, the more color is absorbed into the lips.Allow color to dry (10-20 sec.) with lips in a slightly parted relaxed position.

Repeat steps 7 and 8 twice for a total of three layers of color. This provides maximum coverageFinish with a final coat of shine moisturizer. This can be reapplied throughout the day.

Apply more shine for a high gloss finish or blot with tissue for a matte finish
 
  1. Before applying LIP-INK® COLOR, cleanse your lips with the OFF solution. Using a soft cloth or a cotton pad gently, dab lips (never scrub). This will remove any remaining lip products or residue from your lips, as foreign matter will interfere with the performance of LIP-INK® Cosmetics. This step also aids the exfoliation process (see page 10).

  2. Splash lips with water and pat dry.
  3. If you line your lips, follow instructions above. If you do not use liner, please continue.
  4. Apply a small amount of LIP-INK® SHINE moisturizer as a base conditioner and massage thoroughly into your lips.
  5. Shake the vial of LIP-INK® COLOR you have chosen against the palm of your hand until the beads move freely. Carefully remove the applicator wand and wipe the excess back into the vial. Remember to keep the vial in an upright position.
  6. Apply color to relaxed lips using the widest portion of the applicator. With a gentle even pressure move in one direction only. Do not blot. The slower the application the more color is absorbed. Allow 10 seconds for LIP-INK® COLOR to dry.
  7. Repeat the color application twice for a total of three layers, allowing ten seconds for each layer to dry
  8. Finish with a final coat of SHINE moisturizer. A small amount will leave a slight sheen, if blotted a matte finish will be the result. A high gloss can be achieved by a liberal application. The SHINE can be applied throughout the day without disturbing your lip color.
  9. Remove LIP-INK® COLOR by applying the OFF solution to a cotton ball, make-up pad or a warm, lightly moistened, dark colored wash cloth. Press to the lips allowing a few seconds for the OFF solution to break down the pigment. Gently dab the lips (never scrub) to wipe away the finish, flipping the pad, or cloth as you do so. After color is removed, splash lips with water and pat dry.

    Applying LIP-INK® COLOR to the inner portion of the lower lip can create the illusion of fullness. LIP-INK® COLOR will adhere to areas where ordinary lipsticks will not. LIP-INK® COLOR is more effective when applied in thin layers as opposed to thicker layers.

Are your vials organic too?
  We use ethanol resistant, PE plastic, that is eco friendly and recyclable.
Can I lighten the color?
  LIP-INK® COLOR can not be lightened. However the intensity may be altered by using either 1, 2, or 3 layers of color. Supplement any of the layers of color with layers of CLEAR. Remember you must use three layers of LIP-INK® for maximum staying power. The MAGIC POWDERS may also be layered to create lightness within a color.
Can I use my own lip liner or lipstick with LIP-INK® Cosmetics?
  No. LIP-INK® COLOR is not compatible with wax or petroleum based products, this includes: lip balms, lip glosses, lipsticks, pencil lip liners, petroleum jelly - practically every product for the lips on the market today..
Can I use the brow liner as eye liner?
  While it is not recommended, the brow liner can be used in the eye area, however you may experience tearing.
Can you mix LIP-INK® Colors?
  YES. However, they are mixed by layering on the lips. Not by actually mixing the product. Only LIP-INK® Cosmetics sheer, natural, herbal formulas can be layered - making over 250,000 personalized colors.
Do I need to use the OFF solution?
  YES. The OFF solution must be used before you apply LIP-INK® COLOR. Off must be used to remove color even if the color appears to have worn off hours after application. If this step is not followed, a temporary discoloration of the lips may occur which can be easily removed with LIP-INK® Off. The Off solution also aids with the exfoliation process.
Do I need to use the SHINE moisturizer?
  YES. The SHINE moisturizer is to be used both under and on top of LIP-INK® COLOR. Under the color, the SHINE moisturizes the lips and gives you a smooth surface on which to apply color. When used over LIP-INK® COLOR, the SHINE moisturizer gives you the feel of lipstick as well as protection from dryness.
Do you send to Europe or other countries?
  Yes we are an international company that ships worldwide.

How can I stop LIP colors going darker/blue on me?
  Shake the vial untill the beads move freely. Wipe tip of applicator on tissue and re-instert into vial. Wipe excess into vial before applying, test on inside of hand for closest shade comparison. If it appears too dark plot tip onto cosmetic tissue or cosmetic pad (e.g. This can take red all the way to pink with as many as 500 color variations) If color is still to dark you can use LIP-INK® Magic Powders to lighten color. We reccomend 3 layers for longest lasting power. However if you are happy with first color, you can use LIP-INK® clear color for layers to complete your process. If this still doesnt meet your desired color, you can  use one of our LIP-INK® lip stains that contains white, which includes Venusian flesh and redwood. If blue is still coming up you can choose an orangey tone color to eliminate the blue
How do you care for liner brushes?
  Brushes provided with the LIP-INK® STARTER KIT are recommended for use with one color only. Allowing the color to dry on the brush, leaves you with an firmer bristle to create a more precise line. Do not clean with OFF solution.
How do you care for your LIP INK Liquid Lip Color?
  LIP INK® Color Cosmetics are made from Vegan, Kosher, Natural, Organic & Botanical ingredients not testsed on animals and are not compatible with any other cosmetics.

Our patented 3 product ecosystem consists of three product types: Water, Oil & Botanicals (LIP INK® OFF Base conditioner/remover, LIP INK® wax free shine, Lip Shine Moisturizer, and Lip Ink® Liquid Lip Color). Using all three products is the only way to achieve truly guaranteed smearproof results. LIP INK® color cosmetics are sold to first time user in kits with over 60 colors to choose from. Keep out of heat, hold upright to avoid spilling and close vial tightly to keep color from evaporating. Always moisturize with LIP INK® Lip Shine Moisturizer before applying LIP INK® color.

Upon first application of our Lip Ink Lip Color; to ensure proper color you must first wipe the tip of the applicator onto a tissue before applying to the lips.

LIP-INK® Guidelines for Safe Product Use
 
  1. LIP-INK® Patented Wax Free™ Semi-Permanent™ Cosmetics are a liquid and can spill. Always keep vial in a vertical position and remove applicator slowly.
  2. You may feel a strong tingling sensation when applying LIP INK® Wax Free™ Semi-Permanent™ Lip Color&tade;. This is normal and comes from feeling the 190 proof, rosemary flavored, corn grain alcohol on your lips. It keeps LIP-INK® Cosmetics antiseptically fresh and preservative free.
  3. Make sure you use the LIP-INK® SHINE/MOISTURIZER before applying the COLOR.
  4. Comb through with the brush provided to reduce shine and integrate color into the existing brow line.
  5. Avoid opening during flight as air pressure may cause splatter or leakage.
  6. We do not recommend using LIP-INK® MIRACLE BROW™ LINER or LIP-INK® LIP LINER as eye liner.
  7. We suggest that you do not use LIP-INK® Cosmetic products with any other lipstick or eye products. Including petroleum jelly, wax, lip balm or Chapstick-type products either over or under LIP-INK® Cosmetic products. They are not compatible and will compromise the staying power of LIP-INK® Cosmetic products.
  8. Keep product away from heat and flame!
  9. Avoid contact with inner eye or broken skin.
  10. If you notice any adverse reaction, discontinue use. If irritation persists, consult a physcian.
  11. Keep LIP-INK® Cosmetic products out of reach of children.
  12. Avoid contact with clothing and carpeting. If you have a stain or spill, LIP-INK® OFF solution may be used, along with warm water and soap.

Suppose I have chosen the wrong color?
  Colors on website tend to change from screen to screen. We reccomend you read our color description thuroughly
What are Tinted SHINE moisturizers?
  They are sheer frosted colors mixed into the SHINE moisturizer base and are offered in two shades, HONEY ROSE or BRONZE OPAL. This product will wear off unless "locked" in with the LIP-INK® COLOR or CLEAR.
What causes LIP-INK® COLOR to become patchy or streaky?
  Here are some possible reasons: The applicator needs to be cleaned; too many layers (more than 3) are being applied; it is being applied too thick; it is not being applied in one direction only; you are pausing with the applicator against your lip; SHINE moisturizer is not being applied before LIP-INK® COLOR lips were touched or were blotted while color was drying; you may not be shaking the vial correctly or the color vial may be near empty.
What if I make a mistake in application?
  For Liner mistakes, apply the OFF solution to a Q-tip and correct any problems. For Lip Color, the second and or third layer will generally even out variations in tone. If the mistake occurs during the third layer, a fresh application may be necessary.
What is the best way to care for LIP-INK® Color?
  Wipe applicator stem once a week with tissue to remove any build up.
What is the difference between Clear and Shine?
  The SHINE moisturizer can be used as a base and top coat with LIP-INK® COLORS, or can be used alone to soothe and nourish dry lips. The CLEAR has the same ingredients that make up LIP-INK® COLOR minus the pigment. This helps to "lock" in the magic powders, or to replace one or two of the layers of color in the application of three layers of LIP-INK® COLOR. Remember three layers of LIP-INK® COLOR are required for maximum staying power.
What is the shelf life of LIP-INK® Cosmetics?
  3 years providing the cap is closed tightly after each application, and it is not stored in extreme heat.
Why are LIP INK products not compatible with other cosmetics?
 
Lip Ink® OFF solution is specifically PH balanced with an infusion of vitamins to be a high alkaline base conditioner and exfoliate remover, yet it Is so gentle we use it to remove our eye products with zero irritation.

Soaps are PH balanced to 7 half way between Acid and Alkaline.

Soap will not remove Lip Ink color.

You cannot substitute your face cleanser and personal care soap to remove our Lip Ink Color products. Lip Ink Off is needed and it is included in each of our kits for this purpose.



Our Lip Ink ®lip moisturizers are used as a base conditioner under all Lip Ink® Liquid lip color stains and over the top of them as well to hydrate, restore and add sun protection to your lips. Other cosmetic company lip moisturizers, lip glosses & lip blams are not compatible with the Lip Ink’s ECO system and will actually void the 100% smearproof effect. They may contain Wax, Shea Butters, Petroleum jelly, cholesterol, preservatives and other common unnatural additives used in lip moisturizers, lip gloss and lip balms. Our Lip Ink ®lip moisturizers are included in each of our Lip Ink liquid lip color stain kits for this purpose.
Why can't I get a clean line with the lip liner?
  For the best results, apply the LINER to relaxed lips one quarter section at a time. Avoid any facial hair or applying thick layers to decrease the chance of uneven lines.
Why can't I get the brow brush (that looks like a mascara wand) into the vial.
  The "mascara wand" brush is not designed to fit into the vial of brow liner, the brow brush is used to integrate the color into the hair of the brow and to reduce the shiny finish to matte.
Why do my lips tingle?
  A "tingling" sensation is caused by the natural herbs and botanicals contained in LIP-INK® Cosmetics, this is a normal reaction and over time your lips will become adjusted.
Why does LIP-INK® Color differ from demonstration to application?
  The natural pigment of your lips may slightly alter the LIP-INK® COLOR you've chosen. Lighting and application techniques may also cause a slight variation. However once the color is applied, it will remain true.
Why don't I get enough color?
  You may be applying color too quickly. The slower LIP-INK® COLOR is applied, the more pigment is absorbed into the lips, leaving you with a richer, deeper color. You may also be using too much shine moisturizer as a base coat, or not massaging it in thoroughly.
Why is a line showing on the inside of my lower lip?
  Make sure you are using the entire width of the applicator. This will help to insure that color is being distributed along the inner portion as well as the outer portion of your lip.
Why is LIP-INK® Color too thick?
  Either the product is not being shaken properly, or there is not enough color in the vial. Use a toothpick inserted into the vial to determine if you are running out of color.
Why is the color not staying on?
  LIP-INK® OFF solution remaining on the lips will break down freshly applied color. Make sure the OFF solution has been completely removed with water. Any foreign substance on the lips such as petroleum, wax, (lipstick or lip balm) will compromise the integrity as well. Remember that three layers of LIP-INK® Color must be applied for the maximum staying power, along with a final coat of shine.
Why is the OFF vial that comes with caring case empty and without an applicator?
  The vial is to be filled from the 4oz bottle of OFF solution. This solution is to be applied with a cosmetic pad or a tissue. Using an applicator for the OFF would compromise the solution remaining in the vial.
