Ombre lip tutorial

Add a little va va voom to your look by ditching your go-to lippy and opting for a ombre lip. Ombre lips require two contrasting lip colours to create a contrast effect that really stands out. So want lips your friends will be jealous of? Simply follow this easy tutorial.

I used a combination of hot red and pink shades but you  can use any contrasting colours to create an ombre finish.

1. Line your lips with a white lip liner to ensure you get a clean finish without any bleeding or feathering. (edit - I don't have any white lip liners at the moment so I skipped this step)

2. Use a bright red lip liner and fill in the rest of your lips so the red will be super vibrant.
