Every woman knows she should never leave the house without lipstick.
However, when it comes to creating eye-catching smiles, some people really take their lips to the next level.
Remember when we introduced you to Laura Jenkinson, the makeup artist who brought her lips to life with all sorts of awesome cartoon characters? Well, it turns out she isn't the only talented artist making some serious moves in the makeup game.
