If you thought that lipstick was only good for a quick swipe of colour across your lips, think again. Your lipstick is actually one of the most versatile products in your makeup bag. Don’t believe me?

Here are three products in your makeup kit that can be replaced by your lipstick.
Colour Corrector
I bet you never thought to wear your lipstick under your eyes, but red lipstick is surprisingly effective as a colour corrector under your concealer. Since red cancels out the colours blue and black, simply dab lipstick under your eyes before applying your concealer and say bye-bye to dark under eye circles.
Eyeshadow
Lipstick can also be worn as a stunning cream eyeshadow. Apply it straight onto your eyelids and use your fingers to blend it until you get your desired look. A brown or mauve lipstick is a great place to start, but a bold red or pink lipstick looks amazing for a high-fashion look.
Blush
There’s no need to carry both blush and lipstick in your handbag when your lipstick actually doubles as a cream blush. Apply a red, pink or peach coloured lipstick to your cheeks and blend it out with your fingers for a soft flush.
