This Vlogger Uses Temporary Tattoos To Apply Complex Lipstick Designs Perfectly

There are a few times in every girl’s life where she’s just about ready to swear off makeup.

Whether you swell your eye shut with a mascara wand, as this writer once did, or spent years toiling over your winged eyeliner — until this amazing spoon hack came along, that is — there are plenty of situations where makeup starts to feel like more trouble than it’s worth.

You might think that the exception would be lipstick, the easiest and most universal cosmetic around. We already have this brilliant hack for when it inevitably breaks in half, and other than that, it’s pretty much foolproof, right?

Except when it isn’t…and it ends up on your teeth, or escaping your mouth via the fine lines that we all get when we smile. Plus, by the end of the night, it’s always completely gone, except for the fine rim right around the edge of the lip line.

So what’s a girl to do? Well, as it turns out, there is such a thing as a lip tattoo. No, we aren’t talking about getting your makeup applied permanently, this has more in common with the transfer tattoos that we grew up using as kids.

Best of all, you don’t have to be the guinea pig, because vlogger itsjudytime decided to give this fascinating beauty innovation a shot for us. She even took advantage of the product by picking a wild leopard pattern (available on Amazon) that would be really challenging to apply freehand (and is totally perfect for a cat-themed Halloween costume)!
