So everytime I wear lipstick it creases like in the edges of my mouth. I moisture my lips 24/7. I apply it before I put on my lipstick. it creases on my bottom lip. Any adivice or help as to why this happens? I usually use covergirl lipstick.

My advice to you and what I've learned from the best of the best~
1.Moisturize (wait at least 5 minutes for it to sink in)
2. Apply foundation to lips (it acts as a base/primer and also intensifies the lipstick color)
3.apply liner (optional)
4. Take a tissue (not toilet paper bc it may leave little pieces of paper) and fold it in half. Put between lips and pres your lips together for a few seconds. Yes, this will remove quite a bit of your lipstick but much color should remain.
5. Apply face powder on lips
6. To finish, apply your lipstick again as you would normally and viola!
Your lipstick should not only last for quite a long time, any creasing and bleeding will disappear!
Hope this helps :)

Okay thanks :) I'll try it next time. I usually don't wear lipstick all the time cause of the creasing. I usually just stick to chaptick and tinted chapstick and lipgloss.

No problem at all! :) I don't wear it all too often either and I've been obsessed with maybellines babylips balm ESP the tinted ones!
