How to read lips for your next event

Sigh. We’re slammed. Grateful, happy, but super busy. For those of you who want to do Lip Print Analysis (lip- or kiss readings) at your upcoming event, and you weren’t able to book us, you’re going to have to put in some elbow grease—and get some lipstick!

The most important thing at your event is that you make people feel welcome. I mean, how weird is it to get a Lip Print Analysis?

[Answer: Not at all.]

What you’ll need:

Equipment:

Get paper, vellum, linen, porcelain—get a material that will hold and show a lip print.

We create handmade cards for our clients’ events. Nobody expects you to do that, right?

Your lipstick

Your lipstick should be creamy and pigmented. Chanel is my go-to, I love MAC and Dior, but for the right shade and consistency, I’m willing to try other brands. Oh, and did I say NARS??

Ask what I spend on lipstick annually. Not pretty! Actually, gorgeous!

Lipsticks—why not give each guest their own lipstick (that is what a wonderful corporate client did recently!), or make samples for each one.

Applicators—use something nice that fits your theme.

Makeup remover are very useful, especially if the guy doesn’t think the color suits him. In this day and age, you will want to have individually packaged makeup removers.

A mirror—‘nuff said. Make sure it is clean and bonus points if it is a magnifying mirror.

Design

Lighting. You want to see. Your guests want to see. Check that your lighting is ample and illuminates their application process AND allows you to see their print!

Go design and make, buy, or rent a costume that fits your theme, as well as the props.

Woo (you know you want to know😊)

Nitty-gritty truth—embrace your inner intuitive, mystical, fortune-telling self—what is the first impression you have of the print? Are there symbols in-, above-, around-, or under the print?

In general (there are always outliers) the upper lip denotes your analytic side while the lower lip is all about emotional life. Take a look at these points:

Check out that lip print!

How do the lips come together (or not) at the corners
The size of the opening between them
The clarity of the print
The small lines, dots and bumps and where they are located
How they relate to the whole print – they show tension, joy, disputes, important conversations
Which lip is dominant?
Is the print blurry? That may indicate someone pressured, or inattentive, anxious, or just in a hurry.
Does part of the print seem weak or missing? – Which part? – What does that relate to?
Are there images embedded in it?

Compare that to a delicate, detailed print with what appears to be thousands of finely etched lines.

This can show a great sense of organization, or a tendency to compartmentalize, or even someone who distances themself by using their fastidious nature.

Your job is to uplift, enlighten, educate, and bring joy. If you can’t do that, then go do the dishes or something else.

We never see negative. Truly, really, and whole-heartedly, there is a greater good in each person, in each moment, and your job is to find that good and share it with the giver.

Maybe there is a tendency that needs to be nurtured, or a something they can do to get out of their own way. Maybe an unrecognized skill, or talent.

No matter what, you can always find that seed of greatness, their potential, their commitment, loving nature, or latent skills.

Oh, and you can only see what someone permits you to see—that means if someone doesn’t want a reading, you won’t be able to give them a reading. Interesting, right?
