Bold and Beautiful: Ombre Lips

Kaboodle.com


As you have probably noticed, "ombre," or color shading from dark to light, has been stylish for hair and nails this fall and winter. And now lips are getting the glamorous gradation look, too. Luckily, the two-toned look (seen in Miu Miu's last runway show) is actually easy to achieve on your own. You need two opaque shades in the same color family, one darker than the other. The more different the shades are, the more dramatic your lips will be. (Psssst, you can also use your favorite lipstick and a concealer!) Just apply the darker shade all over your lips, then use a brush to pat the lighter shade (can be cream or powder) in the middle of your pucker, avoiding the edges. Blend lightly to ensure the colors diffuse together, pop on some clear gloss to set everything, and voila-lips look glamorously kaleidoscopic!
