Now on to our lip trend for spring – Incase you haven’t noticed, thanks to Kylie Jenner I have been really into lip game lately. Which means I am totally on trend, since our last big trend for spring in this series is a bright lip. The ‘Kylie’ lip color pallet however, along with the overdrawn lip look will be taking a back seat this spring. As we discussed, we are going for a natural, literally ‘just woke up like this’ look for spring. We will be focusing on warmer colored pastels like soft peach, soft pink or soft beige.
We are back with our fearless NARS glam goddess, Danielle Braeuer for a little Lip Game 101. To achieve this ‘just bitten’ look on the runways this year, the technique was pretty simple; they put on a heavy lip and then they basically took it all right back off. Lipstick is very important to NARS, it was the first product that was launched under the line – that’s right, the NARS empire was built on 12 different lipstick shades. In fact, back in the day, you could not find lipstick in a wide range of colors until NARS came out with the original 12 shades.
Dolce Vita Velvet Matte Lip Pencil
Step 1: This one is easy, just put it on! No liner, that will not lend to our ‘natural’ vibe very well. Even if you typically wear liner every day, trust. This lip pencil will make it seem like there is liner, with one less step. The Dolce Vita color is perfect for that just bitten or flushed look.
Xoxo, The Don
