Ways to Get the Perfect Ombre Lips
Lipstick ombre is all the rage right now, and for a good reason! It’s a fun and easy way to add color and dimension to your look. But if you’re not sure how to achieve perfect ombre lips, don’t worry – we’ve got you covered.
Lately, ombre lips have been all the rage. This trend gives your lips a gradient effect, with the color gradually becoming lighter or darker as you move from the center of your mouth to the outside. While this look can be achieved with a number of different lip colors and techniques, achieving the perfect ombre effect can be tricky. Keep reading for tips on how to get the perfect ombre lips every time.
How to create an ombre lip look?
Continuing with the blog post content, here are a few more ways to get the perfect ombre lips.
One way is to use a lip liner. Outline your lips using a light color and then blend in a darker color just in the center of your lips. This will help create that gradient effect.
Another way is to use two different shades of lipstick. Apply the lighter shade all over your lips, and then use a brush to apply the darker shade in the center of your lips. Again, this will give you that desired ombre look.
Finally, you can also try using a gloss on top of your lipstick for an added pop of color. Choose a gloss that is one or two shades darker than your lipstick.
How do you naturally ombre your lips?
Lipstick is a way to enhance your natural lip color, but finding the right shade for your skin tone can be tricky. If you want to add a little bit of color without going too crazy, ombre lips may be the way to go. Here’s how to do it perfectly every time.
Here is what I do. It’s simple, but not always easy:
First, forget everything you know about lipstick colors! This step is the hardest for me; it requires letting go of your inklings and preconceptions about color. Lipstick colors can be so personal that it may seem impossible to let them go, but this is not a good thing when trying to make an ombre lip look work on yourself.
Take a few minutes and play with the colors in front of you! I like to take out two or three different shades from my collection, hold them up against each other at varying distances from one another, then apply them to my lips one at a time. This helps me get an idea of how the colors will look on my face and which order I want to put them in.
You need to choose a significantly lighter color than your natural lip color. For me, this is always a nude or pale pink shade – something with no real pigment or very little. If you struggle to find a light enough color, try using a highlighter as your lightest shade; make sure it doesn’t have too much shimmer or glitter in it.
