Ombre Lips: Step by Step Instruction
- This step is optional, yet we recommend applying lipstick primer or lip balm before creating lip makeup.
- Line your lips with the lip liner or pencil. Pick the liner color as close as possible to the color of the lipstick that you want to be on the outer side of your lips.
- Blend the line with a synthetic brush
- You may want to repeat steps 1 and 2 several times to get that bold look.
- Fill in your lips with the lipstick that is darker. Make sure the color is close to the lip liner.
- Take a tissue and remove lipstick from the center of your lips. Note, that if you use lasting lipstick, it’s better not to apply it in the middle and blend lipstick quickly before the color dries.
- Once done, fill the center of your lips with the second color (usually it’s the lighter color, if you want to gain those pout lip effect). Do that carefully with a synthetic lipstick brush.
- Now you need to blur the edge between the colors. To do that, press your lips together. Then, if needed, you may blend the border between the colors with your brush.
- Next, if you wish, you can apply lip topper or lipgloss in the middle as the final accent.
