Fall is here and the trends are changing. The easiest way to add a touch of glam to your makeup routine is by playing up your lips. Today I am going to show you a Quick and Easy Ombre Lip Look using two Burt’s Bees Lip Crayons. I am using a nude and a berry shade because that happens to be two of my favorites for Fall, but the shades aren’t important. As long as you use two shades that aren’t extremely similar but do compliment each other well you should wind up with a beautiful ombre.
The new Burt’s Bees Lip Crayon comes in six creamy, full-coverage shades of matte lip color in a modern crayon for truly beautiful lip color. Lightweight moisture for a comfortable, everyday wear formula infused with Shea Butter, Kendi Oil, and Jojoba Oil. It’s color that truly cares for your lips!
Now, on to the tutorial… I am making my ombre fade out from the center of my lip, meaning darkest shade in the center, but you can absolutely do it the opposite way. I think it is most commonly seem with the darker shades on the outer portion of the lips, but this “reverse” effect is quite popular in Korea right now and I can see it spreading. It has a nice, fresh look to it. Like you just bit into a berry.
{one} Outline your lips with the nude shade. I am using Burt’s Bees Lip Crayon in Sedona Sands. Fill in the majority of the lips while leaving the center untouched.
{two} Dab the deeper shade into the inner most center of the top and bottom lip. The shade I used is Burt’s Bees Lip Crayon in Napa Vineyard.
{three} Blend the deeper shade into the nude shade. Don’t try and blend too much or you will ruin the effect.
I love Burt’s Bees and I have been using the brand ever since I can remember finding them in stores. I was perusing the Burt’s Bees site a couple days ago and I learned hey have a lip shade finder, incase you needed help figuring out which shades suit you best. They also have a ton of lip tips as well!
So tell me in the comments below: What do you do to step up your lip game? Bright, bold, shimmer? Anything goes!
