Nude Lips 101

                                          

 Nude lips are a must know technique – they look lovely on their own (left) or as a base to apply stronger colours (right). They can be used to enhance eye makeup, hence the reason you need to know!

You will need:

A concealer or liquid foundation.

Lip balm

White eyeshadow

1.Liberally coat your lips in lipbalm. Completely drench them, they must be really moist!

2. Now, with a lip brush, apply the concealer in little bits, firstly around the edges of your lips, then in the middle. Rub your lips together to spread it evenly. 

3. Reapply your lip balm to keep your lips moist.

4. To further highlight your lips, add a thin layer of white eyeshadow to add a little bit of shimmer!

This is where you can apply your darker lipstick if you want to. Instead of going over the whole area of you lips over and over again, build up one area of your lips to enhace colour. Good luck!
