I always look for tips that can make my life easier. I recently came across this video by an amazing makeup artist who uses lipstick as a blush, stain, matte lipstick, gloss and more. These tips will come in handy if you want to incorporate them into your daily looks, especially if you are pressed for time or you just want to carry around very few items in your purse.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;\"><br \/><\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;\">This video below not only shows you how to use lipstick as a blush but also different ways to wear a bright colored lipstick, from a stain-like effect to the bold and glamorous &#8220;classic hollywood&#8221; lip. Actress Jessica Alba also revealed the use of lipstick as an eyeshadow and a blush as her beauty trick that she swears by in an interview with <a href=\"http:\/\/main.stylelist.com\/2011\/06\/26\/jessica-alba-summer-beauty-secrets\/\">sytlelist.com<\/a>. I have done this a few times myself and I love the idea. Recently, I tried using <a href=\"http:\/\/www.badgerbalm.com\/p-463-lip-tint-shimmer.aspx\">Badger tinted balm<\/a> in &#8220;copper and opal shimmer&#8221; as an eye shadow and it turned out pretty well. The consistency was not so easy to blend and needed tweaking but with some creativity, I could make it work very well as an eyeshadow or a blush.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7OCes9Eubxs\" width=\"560\"><\/iframe><\/center><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 20px;\"><span style=\"color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;\">Using lipsticks on eyes or checks is not a new idea.
