It is more like a step by step + some annotations. I am afraid I dont have the vocabulary in english to explain with detail, so I hope it is clear enough :) A dear friend asked me to do this, so here it is^^

I draw the mouth very simply, really, it is just 3 lines, basically :P
The important thing to remember about the mouth, is the curve it has over the head, and the angle of the lips.

And for painting, I usually paint over the skin tone, so it looks more natural, and with a red/brown tone. Not too red, unless they are using lipstick :P

Always try to keep the volume, the lips are a protuberance and they should feel like that.

The shining effect I do it with the brush in dodge color. I helps to give the lips that sexy look ;) But with men lips, the effect needs to be more discrete.

I hope this is useful for someone. If you have any question, just ask ;)

Looks good. Nice reference, lips/mouth/teeth has been a sore spot of mine.
Thank you!
