How To: the Dark Lip Look

This season’s lips are deep and dark. But a burgundy pout needs to be paired with considered eye makeup: glamorous, with a hint of gothic. Follow our step-by-step and master the trend.


1

BRONZE

Start by sweeping a bronze-coloured shadow to your eyelids. Then use a small brush to rim your lower lash line. A bronzer can work just as well as using eye shadow.

EYELINER PENCIL

Using a black eyeliner pencil, draw between the roots of your lashes and along your upper waterline.

LIPS

Finally outline your lips with a lip pencil. Finish the look by applying a deep burgundy lip colour to your lips – use a brush to guarantee a precise application.
