In this blog, we’ll be sharing some tips and tricks on how to achieve a statement-making pout with bold and vibrant lip colours. So, let's get started!
When it comes to creating bold and vibrant lip looks, choosing the right shade is key. The best way to do this is by considering your skin tone and personal preferences. Warm-toned skin looks great with orange-based colours, while cool-toned skin works well with blue-based colours. It's also a good idea to consider your overall makeup look and outfit to ensure your lip colour ties everything together. Check out our previous blog How to Choose the Best Lipstick Shade for Your Skin Tone the for an in-depth explanation.
Before applying any lip colour, it's important to prep your lips to ensure the best application and longevity. Exfoliating your lips with a lip scrub and moisturizing them with a lip balm can help create a smooth base for your lip colour. Additionally, using a lip primer can help your lip colour stay in place for longer.
When it comes to techniques and styles to achieve a bold and vibrant lip look, there are a few options to consider. For a classic bold lip, apply the lip colour directly to your lips, making sure to stay within the lines. To create an ombré effect, apply a lighter shade to the centre of your lips and a darker shade on the outer edges, then blend together with a LIP BRUSH. And for a high shine finish, apply a gloss over your lip colour.

While a bold and vibrant lip look may seem like something reserved for special occasions or evenings out, it's a versatile look that can be worn in a variety of settings. No matter the occasion, it's important to choose a lip colour that complements your outfit and makeup look. If you're wearing a bold and vibrant lip colour, keep the rest of your makeup minimal to avoid overwhelming your look. And if you're wearing a statement outfit, pair it with a more neutral lip colour to balance out your overall look.
