Why is it in every anime you see, they only have lipstick on their bottom lip?

Because drawing the upper lip makes the face look... off.

Typically because most anime character facial designs don't accentuate the top lip, it's more implied than not, just like the nose. This is in contrast to, say, the character facial designs in a show like Batman Beyond (off the top of my head) where the top lip is more visibly drawn.

Well, whether or not it makes the face look... off, depends on the art style. Some styles can make it work.

No, Anon6. You saw 2 guys talk about lipstick. The rest of us were talking about drawing the upper lip.

Bleh. I think she looks better without the lipstick.
