lip applicators [SEP] i want you to try these for two reasons first of all because i often make my own diy cosmetics including lip balms and glosses these applicators are perfect to use with thosealso have you ever found that perfect shade of lipstick that you cannot live without only to find that it is been discontinued these applicators help get every last bit of lipstick out of a tube so that you can enjoy it longeras you can see the colors are pretty bright i think that these would look more upscale in more muted colors and if that is what you are going for i would suggest getting the other color option in these to be honest what i would prefer is if they were paper or wood instead of plastic a little more environmentally friendlystill they are good for what they are the doe foot tip is slanted just like with your favorite tubed liquid lip products they are fuzzy so they hold the lip productmakeup artists as well as their clientele will appreciate that these can be used once and then tossed no spreading of germs and bacteria
