How to get Red Lips
11:51 PMIt's a timeless art of makeup that never goes out of style: The Red Lip.
I remember how my Mum used to slather the red lipstick all over my mouth when I was young and I'd be trying to sit still as she cleaned up the messes. It took a pretty long time to get it done nicely and I was squirming about waiting for her to get it done because I wanted to go out and play!
Red lips makes one complexion whiter and look younger!!
WHY NOT?
Red lips are all the rage nowadays.
It is perfect for almost every occasion: A simple date or dinner, for office wear and maybe even go bold: wear it out to an event!
VS models are seen frequently with the velvety, red lips on the runway.
I had to try it out for myself so I purchased a NYX lipstick and I was dying to wear this look out.
How to achieve absolutely gorgeous red lips?
1. Apply some lip balm on your lips and then wipe it off with a tissue.
This is so that your lips do stay moisturized after applying the lipstick and provide a base for your lipstick.
2. Start lining your lips with a lip liner to make your red lip more precise.
3. If you want, use a lip brush for more accurate application. Otherwise, using your fingertips or the lipstick applicator will suffice.
4. Carefully apply concealer at the edges of your lips to make it more sharp and defined.
TADA!
Gorgeous red lips that will make heads turn.
This is how I did my red lips and I'm in no way an expert.
I'm just imparting my knowledge to you girls out there who would like to try this look and I hope that you'll be achieve it too!
Practice makes perfect!
Make sure to find out which type of red is suitable for your skin tone so that it will do justice to your look.
For asians, we have yellow undertones so warmer shades of red would look better on us.
But that doesn't mean that you have to constrict yourself to that range only. Try out other reds, who knows? It might work for you.
"Orange-reds are great for bringing out the gold flecks in hazel or green eyes; whereas darker, berry reds will accentuate the mahogany tints in darker brown eyes.
True reds are the best for making blue eyes pop."
