More often than not, individuals tend to emphasize a single defining feature in their makeup, whether it’s a statement eye or a bold lip color. It’s uncommon to see both accentuated simultaneously – until now. Just as fashion rules are meant to be challenged, so are beauty norms. You have the creative freedom to enhance two features, creating a look that will undeniably turn heads. If the idea of combining a dark, smokey eye with a striking red lip seems daunting, let us reassure you. With the right techniques, showcasing both bold eyes and bold lips might soon become your preferred makeup style. Even icons like Selena Gomez embrace this captivating look.
While a smokey eye works well, something is gravitating about powerful eyeliner. To copy and paste Selena’s statement look, start by placing a matte eyeshadow into the crease of your eyes to create depth. From there, use a dark eyeliner pencil like Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Perfect Strokes Longwear & Waterproof Gel Eyeliner or SEPHORA COLLECTION Ultimate Gel Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil to create a thick winged liner moment. Tightline your waterlines and draw a thick layer of eyeliner on the bottom of your eye, ensuring it connects to the top eyeliner on both sides of the eye. We recommend adding a pair of falsies to the mix because your natural eyelashes might look lost among the heavy eyeliner.
Now it’s time to focus on perfecting the pout. When sporting red lips, we always suggest going in with a pencil first to prevent the color from bleeding. Once the liner is applied, it’s time to put on your brightest, juiciest red lipstick shade. Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Stunna Lip Paint Longwear Fluid Lip Color makes for another great choice because it doesn’t leave lips dry, and the color is long-lasting. This lipstick has a lovely matte finish, and it is super pigmented. As far as the rest of your makeup, keep your base pared down. A natural, glowing complexion will compliment the ultra-bold eye and lip makeup look.
