41. How to: Wearing Dark Lipstick
Im a massive fan of lipstick as many of us are. I think it completely changes any look you have on your face or your wearing. This is Depth by Topshop ( I will be putting a review on some Topshop stuff soon) It is a dark deep purple which is a very dramatic and daring colour. I know many people are not fans or the lipstick which is more on the bold side but if you are willing to give it a go, I suggest to go for it.
When wearing a bold lip, I usually like to keep everything else simple, otherwise it can sometimes look a bit over the top and overwhelming, which isn't usually the look were going for! Here is some of my step by step information on how to get the best results.
- Always use a good lip scrub and keep those lips as soft as you can.
- When using bright or bold lipsticks I like to nude out my lips with concealer or foundation as this helps the colour you've chosen to go on more pigmented and the colour will stay true.
- Use a lip liner as close to the chosen colour if you have one, as this will act as base and keep the lipstick on for longer. Obviously this is a necessity if you don't have lip liners.
- Then apply your chosen lipstick carefully, if you make any mistakes then that is where the next step comes in.
- If your lipstick doesn't look crisp or we have any oopsys, then all you need is a concealer and a crisp flat brush to clean up the edges.
Then there you go, you have a nice bold lip to wear to any occasion. Just add a touch of confidence and a pout and your ready to go.
