GET THE LOOK
Step 1.
Since the focus for this look is the lips, we’ll keep the face nice and innocent. TEMPTU’s innovative at-home airbrush makeup tool gives a flawless – yet fresh-faced – finish. Simply apply from the centre of the face outwards, moving in small circles.
Step 3.
Define brows with Laura Mercier’s new Brow Dimension Fiber-Infused Colour Gel. This light gel subtly smooths, while not disturbing the natural slight separation between hairs, for a tamed, yet not over-done look.
Step 2.
Make sure your bold lip won’t budge with Lipstick Queen’s Invisible Lip Liner. This versatile, use-with-any shade liner can be applied all over the lip to ensure lipstick doesn’t migrate.
Step 4.
Apply NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Dragon Girl. Simply draw around the outline of your lips with this ultra-flattering shade, then fill in the centre.
