00:10Hi there, I'm Maria Del Russo with Refinery29 and today we have a very special guest with us,
00:16Tess Christine, YouTube beauty extraordinaire, and we're talking a lot of fun stuff today.
00:22How are you, Tess? Hi, I'm great. How are you? I'm great. So let's chat spring and summer beauty.
00:28What have you been seeing that's popular? So something that's really on trend right now is
00:32focusing on the lips, especially having the appearance of fuller lips. Have you ever
00:37focused on the lips with your makeup before? You know, I do a red lip every single day,
00:41so something a little different sounds right up my alley right now. Yeah, something I like to do
00:46is an ombre lip, which is basically you just take two different colors, contrasting colors,
00:51either light or dark, and you kind of focus the lighter color on the center of your lips,
00:56which is going to give you a lot fuller appearance, and it's also going to make them just look brighter,
01:00plus it's really fun because you can use a bunch of different colors. I totally love it,
01:04so can you walk me through it? Okay, so basically what I do first is I always use a lip
01:08liner. So
01:09for an ombre, all you have to do is focus it on the outer corners of your mouth. Alright,
01:13let's get cracking then. And when you actually are lining your lips, you're going to leave the
01:17center of it blank, just like you did, because you're going to put a lighter color there, but you
01:21can fill in the rest of the sides. Alright, well this looks a little crazy right now,
01:24but what do I do next? Next, you're just going to kind of blot with your fingers on the lip
01:28liner,
01:28just to kind of fade it out a little bit more. Now you're going to take a lighter lip color
01:32and
01:32place that on the center of your lips. I'm actually going to use a lip brush for a little bit
01:36more
01:37control. Okay. I love it so far. That looks so great already. Can I clean it up with the lip
01:43liner
01:44a little bit? Yeah, I would do that, especially on the outsides in case any of it kind of smudged
01:48down.
01:51How's it look? Awesome. It's that easy. It's so easy and I totally love it. It's a great way for
01:58me to like still wear my red lip, but with a little extra something, which is great. A little bit
02:02of
02:02a twist too. Totally. Tess, this lip looks rad. Thank you so much for walking me through it,
02:07and I hope we get to do this again very soon. Yeah, of course. I'm glad I could help. Bye!
02:19Bye!
