I'm a guy with quiet large and very Red lips. I've seen and heard of many who use some sort of product to make their lips a more neutral color, like brownish, whitish depending on ones skin tone. I have olive skin and really need some sort of product I can use to get rid of the Red color in my lips, I look like a clown.
I've tried using acne cover sticks on the lips and it seemed to work pretty fine for a while, but now I notice that under some lights my lips look purple-whitish and its even worse.
I'm not naturally vain, but this does bother me so I'm trying anything.
I hope someone can help out or give some tips :)
Thanks ;)

Hello guy with red lips.. I have the same problem, except I'm a girl. My trick is using a foundation stick, I only use a tiny pit, but I dab it on my lips and grab a chap stick and blend it out. The only problem that I find happens is depending on how dray your lips are it can get crack and it doesn't look too appealing.
I wish I had another solution for you other than using cover up, but I don't :( I hope if not this you find something to help you out, I know how it feels to look like a clown :) good luck
Rebekah.

NEVER EVER drink less water than you already are. It can make you feel sick in some ways.

Try mentholatum (vaseline, menthol and camphor main ingredients and active compounds). It reduces reddening from acne and I'm trying it out on my red lips.

For about 6 months now, not my lips but a ring around my lips and a bigger redder area on one corner. I look a cock obviously. But it goes off sometimes, I've tried vaseline, nivea, ecezma cream, lip cream I've tried mixing creams... I'm stumpd and refuse to live a life
