Tip: you can make almost any nude shade work by highlighting and contouring your lips. Sure, it sounds like more unnecessary makeup steps but it’s not that bad. Keep a liner thats only a shade or two darker than your skin tone on deck at all times. (Mine is Cork by MAC and it’s a great place to start if you have brown skin. Chestnut and Teddy are pretty good too.)
Use the pencil to darken the corners of your lips. Then apply your matte shade. Lastly, use a semi sheer gloss in the center of your lips only. I like MAC’s Oh Baby, it’s just golden enough to soften any mattes that may come off too ashy or don’t quite compliment my skin tone. This technique will give you a plumper pout and make more nudes-that-aren’t-really-nude-at-all work for brown skin.
Who’s going to be brave enough to try to get a lip kit (or two… or three) tomorrow? May the odds be ever in your favor
