Double Dare - A Pale Lip Perfect For Darker Skin Tones
Transcript
00:08so I've always loved the look of a 60s mod lip and for me I'm just trying to figure out
00:12how
00:12do I actually incorporate it and make it work on darker skin tones. Shana, we're loving the
00:17mod lip right now absolutely but you have some questions yes so my big question is how do I
00:22actually make it work on deeper complexions I think that's a question that a lot of women have
00:27and what I'd like to do is give you some hints that can help you choose the right shade awesome
00:31and
00:31then show you how you can make it work great good yes all right let's try it so the first
00:36thing that
00:36I want to do is give you some moisture on the lip when we're going with a pale lip look
00:40we want to
00:40make sure the lip is moisturized and what I'm going to do is choose a moisturizer that also has a
00:46tint
00:47of green to it what the green is going to do is cut the pink in the lip as well
00:53as keep your lip
00:53moisturized and with a lot of women of color one of the toughest things with a pale lip look is
00:59that
00:59you have two different tonalities on your lips this will make sure that everything is neutralized and
01:04ready for our pale shade next I'm using a chubby pencil and I love everything chubby so I'm going
01:10to use this pencil and just sketch it right along the lip line and shade it right down onto the
01:17lip this
01:18is going to give us a great easy transition that makes wearing maude pale lips effortless next I'm
01:26choosing a shade that's two or three shades lighter and with this pencil I'm starting in the center of
01:31the lip and blending it right into my darker lip line right call her Miss Ross I like it I
01:42like it I
01:43like it is a lot of luck pair it with a lash pair it with a vintage liquid liner and
01:48you've got a look
01:49that's effortless easy to wear and stops traffic it's so unexpected and it's so different and I
01:56think we really have to get away from limiting the looks that darker skin women can wear I think I'm
02:00going to give it a try in my apartment first on a Friday night with some wine and then try
02:05wearing it
02:06outside of the house. Fantastic. Thank you.
