7 ways to make up lips with lipstick
At first sight, There is nothing easier than putting lipstick on your lips, but in reality everything is a bit more complicated - and more interesting. We brought seven ways that would be enough for the first time to someone who is just getting acquainted with bright and not very lipstick, or is looking for how to diversify the usual makeup (and wait for other ideas in the comments, of course).
Ombre

The most simple ombre in those shades and techniques that create a carnivorous and somehow extremely feminine image. Make it easy: lipstick - better matte and red - you need to paint only the visible part of the mucous and smears to bring the color to the middle of the lip. We especially like it when the border is torn, but you can smooth it out - it will turn out like a portrait with overlaid geometric arrows from our shooting with stickers. Note, the ombre can be repeated in other colors (as in the long-standing show of Prabal Gurung) and let it not only from the inside of the mouth, but also from the upper lip to the lower lip, for example.
Contour Fragments

Piercing is now again at a height (we wanted to remind you of the eyebrows at the recent Rodarte show, but hardly anyone forgot), so we decided to imitate it with golden lipstick. In fact, the lines could be taken further and differently: draw only a tick, shade it or not, completely circle the contour, like FKA twigs, or just fake a ring - and make it all in any color, naturally. If not quite comfortable, metallic or not very much in contrast to the skin tone - the right choice.
Graphic contour
How it is done: MAC Chromagraphic Pencil Genuine Orange lip liner and MAC Lipmix Orange lipstick
The most familiar option seems the easiest, but there are pitfalls here as well. A rare person does not need to lift, lengthen, round or sharpen lips for their symmetry. The latter is a universal landmark, which is most often sought, but sometimes it is intentionally violated. You probably read and heard more than once that planned negligence differs - at least in spirit - from the one that went out of hand, so that if there is still little experience with lipstick, we advise you to learn how to embellish the natural contour of your lips and then experiment with it powerfully.
With shadows to match

Even the most matte lipstick does not give such a velvety effect, as glossy, nailed with crumbly shadows in tone (except, perhaps, Lime Crime Velvetines, but there are only seven shades). As it probably already became clear, you can make any lipstick with this matte trick, and the color of the shadows can be varied if you want to get not monochromatic lips. A brush is better to choose a flat, natural pile (be sure to shake it off of excess shadows before applying).
Small glitter, contrary to expectations, keeps well on lipstick and does not crumble, as do colored shadows. If you sprinkle the entire surface of the lips with sparkles, you need to carefully interact with the cups and follow the lipstick during the day. Yes, with one layer of lipstick is easier, but with lip balm is easier than with lipstick, do you understand the logic?
Two flowers
How it is done: NYX Macaron Lippies Black Sesame on the bottom and mixed with Lime Crime Velvetine Salem on the top
An easy way to diversify makeup, if you still like a certain lipstick, but you are equally fed up with makeup. More beautiful, as it seems to us, look two similar shades (a fan of brown lipstick) - for this one can be diluted with the other, as we did. However, nothing prevents to choose two equally strong colors, however, the effect will be different.
Without contour pencil
How it is done: lipstick Max Factor Color Elixir Lipstick Chilli
The effect of kissed, bitten, cracked lips - as it is just not called. The bottom line is that the lipstick is applied with a patting motion straight from the stick: this way the outline itself is fuzzy and the color is transmitted. The saturation of the latter can be stuffed, and you should not be afraid that it will turn out badly - even the darkest shades look cool in such a “careless” version.
