I forgot about these photos!

Well, I did a video tutorial a little while back on pink lips. Here’s the photo tut, which I forgot about… because I suck.

Enjoy!

Products Used

MAC Magenta and Pink Fuchsia lip liners
The Body Shop mini lip brush (from the travel set. I love this!!)
Beauty Rush (by Victoria’s Secret) Minty Lip Shine, which is clear. Go for clear + glitter if desired!


Swatches – Magenta on left, Pink Fuchsia on the right.)
Steps:
Line your lips – Magenta as a “normal” liner (perhaps a little thicker) and Pink Fuchsia to fill in your lips. I just liked the gradient of this… but if you wanted a bolder lip, go ahead and use one or the other in the entire lip area!

Smudge, using your finger or a lip brush, in motions from the outer edge to the inside. Clean up around your lipline if needed with either non-oily makeup remover, or concealer.
Gloss up! Weather you’re using a tiny dab or a huge blob, this step is unavoidable. To keep your applicator tip clean, put a bit on the back of your (clean) hand and apply with a lip brush or your finger.
The gloss will do the final blending of the two colours, take away the dryness you get from lip pencils, and make the look a little more fun and wearable.
My verdict? While this takes a little more time than just wearing one liner (Magenta alone is gorgeous!) it does add quite a bit of depth and fullness in real life. In addition, Pink Fuchsia is slightly brighter and easier to wear for a daytime lip!
