About Ombre Lips Fashion
Ombre lip is essentially a graduation of colour that gently evolves from light in the centre of your lips to dark around the edges, cleverly giving the illusion of fuller lips.
However, the ombre fashion was derived from the land of Korea, where it was socially appealing to decorate the lips attractively. Lipstick for the Koreans were used in creating durable hues in the inner part of the lips while the outer side is given a shade with the use of a concealer. This displays a unique effect of being kissed or having a sensual ‘bitten lips’ effect.
Several ways have been developed on how to apply the ombre style to the lips makeup. Different colours and lipstick texture can be used. But, the modern style of ombre have emphasized more on the dramatic effect. Ombre is now the most effective way to highlight the beauty of the lips.

Ombre Lips Tutorial | How to Do an Ombre Lip Makeup
- First of all, begin your makeup by moisturizing the lips with a balm.If you have chapped or peeling lips, you can give them a light scrub.
- Then you should slightly tint the lips with the help of a concealer or foundation to soften their colour. Outline the lips contour with a lip pencil (a liner).
- Then shade the pencil lightly in the inward direction. Try to make the contour unnoticeable. Put on the basic lipstick.
- Using a liner that is 2-3 darker than the basic lipstick, apply to the corners of your lips.. Apply a lip gloss on the lips corners or use a lipstick that is 2-3 shades darker over the lip pencil.
- Try to make the colour blend smooth. If needed use a paper tissue to get rid of extra lipstick. You should know that this type of makeup should be well suited to your skin colours.
- If you have bold lips, avoid bold colours on your eyes. Apparently, such bright lips require ideal skin tone. Everything must be balanced. The main point is not to overdo the look.
- Mind that all the beauty products should be of a high quality and not expired. Otherwise, there is a real danger to your health: no ombre effects could hide inflammations and rashes on the skin.
