Do you ever look at those insanely beautiful lip portraits on Instagram like, "Nah, that's so perfect it has to be photoshopped"?
Well, turns out, they're more than real and watching the process is one of the greatest gifts to humanity.

Makeup artist Sarah Steller generously let us in on how these lips are made, and MY GOD it's an experience. JUST LOOK AT THE COLOR MIXING WITH THE GLOSS.
And that's just the first step.
It's time for the perfect application...
...which sends you into a cold sweat, questioning if you'll ever even have a fraction of that talent.
Just when you think it can't get any more flawless, MORE GLOSS IS APPLIED, CREATING THE PERFECT DRIP.
The brush strokes...
...the sharp lines...
...THE GLITTER, THE GOSH DARN GLITTER.
THIS IS TOO MUCH. I've seen what heaven looks like, and there's lots of lip gloss.
