Simple Ombre lips ❤


Want your lipstick to make an impact? well try ombre lipstick, its simple yet effective and can make any simple make up look like you have spent hours perfecting it.  If you are new to this or not very confident in doing ombre lips a Matte lipstick might be easier for you as there is less blending and it lasts much longer.  


Products I used;
MUA lip lacquer in Criminal (available in superdrug) 
Black eyeshadow 
small eyeshadow brush 
concealer (optional)
concealer brush (optional)


  • Apply your make up as normal and then use a baby wipe or make up remover on your lips to make sure they are clean
  • Apply your matte lipstick/lacquer as normal, if needed apply lipliner before
  • Once your matte lipstick/lacquer has dried apply a black or dark eyeshadow in the outer corners only and blend gently 
  • If needed clean up the edges with concealer and a concealer brush

Ombre lips tutorial ❤


I have been asked a few times how I do my black and red ombre lips so I thought I would do a little step by step guide in how I do it and what products I used.  




  1. cover your lips with your foundation, concealer or lip eraser, this step isn't essential but it may help clean up later on!
  2. line your lips with a black lip or eye pencil and add extra black to the corner of my lips
  3. apply lipstick straight from the bullet or with a brush and blend the colours together with your lips 
  4. clean up is optional! if you want a precise look you can go back with your concealer brush and some concealer and clean up the edges
  5. next step is personal choice, I love to add gloss with any ombre look but that is totally up to you.


Products I used;
Jelly Pong Pong 2 in 1 eyeliner & shadow pencil in black
MAC Ruby Woo lipstick 
Gerard Cosmetics lipgloss in Candy Apple


I hope you enjoyed this tutorial, let me know if you try it out!
