Guide To Nude Lips
It’s totally “in” right now. It works well with dramatic eyes and is really helpful in bridal makeup for those brides that want to experiment with something a little more artwork around the eyes.
Article by Miss V Makeup
These lips work particularly well with natural brown-smokey eyes with a good solid black liner. You’ll instantly look like Eva Longoria, and there is NOTHING wrong with that.
The nude lip is a little trickier to achieve than most.
Start out blocking out the lips using either the same foundation you used on your skin (this works really well if you use a cream foundation. Liquid is no good for this) or a nude lip color. You won’t find these in normal stores; MAC is a good place to look for one.
Powder the lips with your facial powder. This settles in the bizarre texture it leaves on your lips.
After powdering, line the lips with a very nude pencil. This will prevent the lip-gloss from bleeding into your foundation.
Gloss! Gloss! Gloss! Use a pinky shade of gloss to finish off the look.
And hey presto – you’re done!
Check out a before an after of those lips!
Thanks for taking the time to learn with me, and special thanks to my wonderful model and friend, Lolly (watch this space for her in my hair tutorial) and my good friend Graeme from GeeCee Photography
