Spoon on a plate
After finishing the soup, leave the spoon in the plate so as not to stain the tablecloth. For those who sincerely think: “I’d better lick her thoroughly and then carefully leave her on the table,” I’ll note that such things are, in principle, unacceptable in decent society. In general, you need to eat soup correctly. Firstly, you cannot put the spoon completely into your mouth; you just need to flip it, resting on your lower lip. Secondly, bring the device to your lips, not with the narrow nose, but with the wide side.

Lipstick on the lips, not on the glass
You should not leave traces of lipstick on a glass, but this does not mean that you need to wipe off your makeup with a cloth. Use a paper analog for this, just don’t turn it inside out for everyone to see, but simply put it away without attracting the attention of others.
Question answer
Is it polite not to laugh at a joke you've already heard? If this is not possible, handle the glass very carefully. Lightly lick your lips before you drink anything, this will help avoid obvious marks. In general, make it a rule to use long-lasting lipstick, or do without it in such situations.
How to choose the right lipstick
To make it easier for customers to choose, our experts have selected the most important parameters that you should pay attention to before buying a moisturizing lipstick:
- Format.
There is a standard stick and applicators, as well as pencils and palettes. The choice here is based on the preference of each lady. - Hue
. It is extremely important to take into account the color type, hair, and facial skin. For example, a moisturizing lipstick that is suitable for fair-haired ladies may look inappropriate on the lips of a brunette, and vice versa. In addition, it is important to consider the shade of the lips themselves. - Finish coating
. Depending on whether the composition is wet or glossy, it can dramatically change the appearance. For example, gloss allows you to visually enlarge your lips, and a matte finish creates the effect of a kiss. - Additional effects
. Manufacturers often add special components to their formulations that have an additional effect on the lips. For example, power, flicker, etc. - Compound
. It is advisable to choose a moisturizing lipstick that contains natural oils or vitamin supplements. - Sustainability
. Some lipsticks can last no more than 2-3 hours, while others will remain on the lips throughout the whole day. You should choose based on your daily needs. - Makeup remover
. Most lipsticks do not require any additional removal products. However, there is also makeup that can only be removed using hydrophilic oils. - Manufacturer.
It is better to choose those moisturizing lipsticks that are manufactured by a well-known company with sufficient experience and a laboratory that produces the best formulations. - Reviews.
During the process, it is important to pay attention to feedback on problematic issues and application features. - Prices
. Moisturizing lipstick is a utilitarian item that runs out quickly. This factor must be taken into account and the purchase must be made depending on your capabilities.
Taking these criteria into account, our experts have compiled a rating of the best lipsticks that have a moisturizing effect.
We help correctly
If you see that an unfamiliar girl’s tights are torn or some man’s fly is slightly unbuttoned, and you want to tell the person about this, remember that it is preferable to make such comments to people of the same sex. Otherwise, you might just end up embarrassing them. Of course, if the situation is critical, sometimes you can break this rule. Then report the problem quietly. You can even come to the person's aid. But again, do not forget about the sense of tact: “There is dirt on the back of your jacket, let me help you.” Remember: first we ask permission and only then we begin to act, and not vice versa.
Max Factor
This famous company produces budget lipsticks in the classic form in the Color Elixir and Velvet Mattes series. As you can see, the fashion for matte textures has also captured their range. There is also a line of long-lasting lipsticks called Lasting Colors, but, alas, they are not particularly durable.
Color Elixir has shiny gold or red packaging that is praised for its understated, luxury-like feel. The lipsticks themselves within the series are very different; some are translucent, while others are dense and opaque. Products in rich shades apply smoothly, without bald spots. The stated moisture lasts only while the paint is applied. There are no care properties, but it is very comfortable to wear.
Flesh shades can be difficult to apply; they go on like putty and highlight flaking. The relatively new Velvet Mattes series spreads well, creates a dense coating without shine, but can dry out the lips a little.
Many people recommend applying these lipsticks on a balm, then they are not felt on the lips. Complaints that the product spreads without a pencil are very rare. There is a smell, but not everyone finds it pleasant.

Raising children
When a child gets on the transport, this does not mean that everyone urgently needs to give up their seat. Children are future men and women who also need to be raised. In fact, all the rules in this regard are clearly stated, we just don’t pay attention to them. For example, in the same metro we are constantly told: “Give your seats to disabled people, elderly people, pregnant women and passengers with children.” And a “passenger with a child” is the one who holds his child in his arms. Of course, if there is a crush in transport, it is better to give up your seat, there is no time to educate the future generation.
Question answer
What is the story with Trump being “embarrassed” in front of Elizabeth II?
Getting up from your favorite chair
Forget about the habit of shaking hands while sitting. A handshake implies that you must stand up. Even if the powers that be, such as Mr. Trump , allow such liberties - and he really loves to violate this article of etiquette - there is no need to blindly repeat after him.
Also, do not extend your hand to your interlocutor through a table, chair, threshold or any other obstacle. Don’t be lazy to spend your precious 30 seconds and leave the table. Otherwise, your gesture will look the same as if you wrote “thank you” instead of “thank you.”

Excellent lipstick, although expensive, but worth the money. Quite economical because the color is rich. It lasts me personally for 6 hours (if I eat and drink). I highly recommend it!
Marina B.
Bright rich color, application requires a minimum amount, one layer is enough. The coating is thick with glitter. The glitter is not large, it just delicately highlights the lips. Before applying, lips must be moisturized.

I liked the appearance of the lipstick and the quality of application, it lasts a long time due to the texture, the main thing is that it does not dry out the lips and does not flow beyond the contour!!! Small volume, but rich color! It applies well in a thin layer, yet gives a rich color and lasts throughout the day!

Very good lipstick. It lasts a long time, has a very pleasant smell, the color is also not bad, but it didn’t suit me (too light), the applicator is comfortable, soft, the consistency itself is not very liquid. The lipstick is easy to use and did not cause any allergic reactions. I recommend!

Amazing color! You can't feel it on your lips at all! Does not dry out, the matte effect is sufficient
intimate things
Picking your nose in public or scratching your ear by sticking your fingers into it is indecent. If it seems to you that others do not pay any attention to this, you are mistaken. Everyone sees everything perfectly, but when you then take hold of, for example, a handrail in a vehicle with your own hands, they are horrified.

Unusual lipstick: options for all occasions
Are you stuck in a routine and no longer understand what you like and what tires you? Yesterday's pretty pink lip color seems outrageously banal to you today? It’s not surprising - after all, I want to add more bright colors to dull everyday life. In these days of eclecticism and neo-punk, lipsticks of unusual colors intrigue not only teenagers - even quite mature women can (and want) to afford something extravagantly purple or even green (the main thing is that the shade and condition of the skin allow it).
