How to Do a Bright Pink Ombré Lip Look?


  • Step #1. Prepare your lips...

So, let's begin our ombré lip look with a lip scrub. I always like to exfoliate my lips before applying lip pencil, as it may emphasize the lips' dryness. After you are done exfoliating, put on your favorite lip balm, and let it absorb into your skin.

  • Step #2. Powder up...

Next, we are going to create an even canvas for the pencil. I used a pressed face powder, applying it thinly with a powder puff.

  • Step #3. Time for matte pencil...

Now, sharpen your favorite white matte pencil. The sharp point of a pencil is easier to control, so you should always keep it sharp for makeup. Apply it right in the middle of the bottom and upper lips.

  • Step #4.  Work the corners...

The corner parts of the lips, that were left untouched, should be filled with a bright pink lip liner. It will make the lip gloss even brighter and creamier.

  • Step #5. Blend the colors...

Use your finger or a small synthetic brush to gently smudge the colors, and create very soft gradient transitions between them. Keep blending and smoothing the white and pink color until you are satisfied with the way it looks.

  • Step #6. Final touch-ups...

Finish your bright pink ombré lip look for spring with a touch of clear lip gloss, and it is done!
