Hello Everyone,
Spring brings with it the pretty pastel, flowery and fresh vibes! I love to do my makeup according to the weather and so I get all my pastels, pinks and peachy shades out to flaunt the springy colors, but I realised in all this, I completely neglect my favorite dark shades berry’s, plums and mostly black!
Black lipstick in spring can not only make you stand out from the rest and make a statement but also bring out the softness of your spring outfit by adding an interesting contrast. In this post I will show you three ways to play with your black lipstick and how to carry it off this spring! Excited? Read on….
-
STRAIGHT UP
Apply your black lipstick straight up and bold, I like to team it up with a bold eyeliner and a clean full coverage complexion. As you see this look goes well with a white tee and fun earrings, so it’s super easy to team it up with your spring clothes.
- Outline the lips using a Black Eye Pencil.
- Apply a liquid matte black lipstick.
I used Liquid Matte Black 28 Night Bird from Sephora.
2.BOLD TRANSPARENCE
Use your black lipstick in transparence by mixing it with your lip balm, for this look I kept my skin dewy using a light foundation and adding highlighter to highten the glowy effect. This look is easy to carry with light colored spring clothes.
- Mix your lip balm with a creamy black lipstick and a wine lipstick(optional).
- Apply this all over the lips.
- For added intensity tap the black lipstick gently all over the lips.
I used the black lipstick Artist Rouge Creme C604 and dark purple Artist Rouge Creme C506 from Make Up For Ever.
3. VINTAGE VINYL
To go with this high shine lip effect, I chose a smudgy eye makeup and a full coverage foundation. I wore this look with a really casual jean jacket and my hair tied into a little side braid to give the whole look a bold yet casual feel.
- Apply a a black lipstick.
- Add a high shine gloss in a balck or dark wine shade.
- Use a black waterproof eye pencil to outline the lips and keep the lipstick locked in place.
I used Artist Acrylip 501 from Make Up For Ever.
I hope you enjoyed this post, let me know if you would dare to wear black this spring and which is your favorite look from the three.
