I'm SO excited to be back again with another makeup tutorial featuring Maybelline! Valentine's Day is just around the corner, so I'm here with another one of my "Looks to Love". If you want to see how I created this fun ombre lip, check out the tutorial below!
Here are a few of the products I'm going to be using - Maybelline's The Blushed Nudes Palette (which is filled with gorgeous rosy tones), Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner, The Falsies Push Up Drama Mascara and Color Sensational Lipcolor in Sugar Chic.
And I found all of my products at Walmart in the makeup section! There's also an end cap display to where the majority of the products can be found.
I went ahead and applied my foundation, blush and contour which can be seen
here. Then I applied my eye color using The Blushed Nudes Palette. I ran the top fifth color (fifth from the left) through my crease, the top sixth on the outer third and lower lash, and the bottom fourth along the outer corner of my upper lid. I wanted to keep the eye fairly simple since the majority of the focus will be on the lips. I finished my eyes with a cat eye using the gel liner and then put on lots of mascara (this mascara is super build-able, which I love)! A little tip when using Maybelline's Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner - I take a little bit on a thin liner brush and draw the end of my cat eye first, then line my lid and connect the cat eye inward.
Now onto the fun part! To create an ombre lip you'll need three liners in the same color family (one dark, one medium and one light). I chose to do a pink lip, so I used a plum, fuschia and pinky nude. I took the darkest shade first and lined my lips, then filled in the VERY outside corners - leaving 3/4 of my inner lip unfilled. Then I took the medium shade and lined my lips right underneath the darkest shade and filled in my entire lip EXCEPT the very center of my lip (leave a circle in the center of your lips open). Finally I filled in the center with the lightest color. And finally, the best part - take a light lipstick in the same color family - I'm using Sugar Chic from Maybelline which is a creamy light pink - and apply it all over your lips. This just blends all three of the liners together and takes away any harsh lines (but if there are any harsh lines left over, just blend with your finger).
And that's it! So easy and such a unique look for Valentines Day. You can shop all of the products I mentioned
here!
