Lip Print Tutorial

Follow these 5 simple steps to create the perfect print

Step 1 Begin with clean, dry lips

Do not apply lip balm or moisturizer before or after the lipstick. Moisture will smooth out the texture of your lips, removing all of the glorious detail from your print.

Step 2 Apply Lipstick

Follow the natural line of your lips or create any shape you want! 

Unless you have an allergy, please use the lipstick included with your kit. We have tested countless colors and the shade included yields the best prints.

Step 3 Lay your Kiss Me card on a flat surface

Find a flat, smooth surface with enough space to hold your card flat with both hands and extend your elbows when you lean in for the print.

Step 4 Make your mark

The best way to part your pout is to relax your lips, separate your top and bottom teeth slightly, inhale, and exhale a deep breath. Whatever shape your lips are in at the end of your exhale will make the best print. 

Holding that relaxed pout, press your lips on the kiss card for at least 3 seconds to transfer enough lipstick for a clear print.

*If you have long hair, be sure to secure it or move it to one side so it does not get in the way of your perfect print. 

Step 5 Hold the card flat

Use both hands to hold your Kiss Me card securely against the flat surface as you lift your lips away to avoid smudging your print.
