You Will Need (7 things)

  • Lip Primer
  • Red Lip Liner
  • Black Eyeliner
  • Red Lipstick
  • Lip Brush
  • Concealer
  • Concealer Brush

Steps (6 steps, 5 minutes)

  1. 1

    Begin by priming your lips with a lip primer to ensure the colour will last as long as possible. I used MAC Prep + Prime Lip. Then line and fill in your lips using a red lip liner. I used Redd by MAC.

  2. 2

    Take a black eye kohl and begin filling in the outside edges slightly. Do this on the top and bottom, filling in only the inner and outer thirds of the lips. This will add definition to the lips and create the vampy look we're going for.

  3. 3

    Taking a synthetic lip brush, feather the black eye kohl towards the centre of the lip to blend the two colours together.

  4. 4

    Go over the entire lips using a matte red lipstick. I used Ruby Woo by MAC. I decided to add a little more black to the outside edges, which is entirely optional and depends how dramatic you'd like them to look.

  5. 5

    Finish up by cleaning around the outside edges with concealer. I used MAC Studio Finish concealer on a Sigma F70 brush.

  6. 6

    Done!
