Concealer lips were a statement in the 2000s, and we thought we had left them behind forever, but Sofia Richie put them back on the map.
The good news is that they are not the almost white and dimensionless lips of your adolescence, but a technique with which we can make them look voluminous and very sophisticated. Here’s how to achieve the look.
What do concealer lips look like?
On TikTok, many memes remind us of what concealer lips were like 20 years ago: they consisted of putting concealer instead of lipstick, which resulted in cakey lips, without dimensions that now look zero cool. However, if you learn how to use your concealer on your lips, they can look less like a meme and more like the iconic Sofia Richie.
What this trend seeks in 2023 is to give prominence to the mouth, creating an effect with the tone of your concealer in strategic areas that make your lips look fuller.
1. Preparation
We recommend starting with well-moisturized lips. Apply a lip balm or lip oil for softer and free-of-dry lips.
2. Line the lips
Lip liner is optional, but it can help give lips a more defined and voluminous look. Use a lipstick in a nude shade or one that is slightly darker than your natural lip color. Line the contour of your lips, following their natural shape.
Try not to make your liner so strong as the goal is to make it look as natural as possible. We recommend Patrick Ta’s Monochrome Moment Precision Lip Crayon as it’s super easy to blend and lasts a long time.
3. Apply nude lipstick
Choose a nude lipstick as close to your natural lip color as possible. Apply the lipstick to the center of your lips and gently blend it outwards with small touches.
4. Apply concealer
Finally, apply a light layer of concealer to the center of your lips and blend with your fingers, both top and bottom, to give it an ombré effect and make it look like you’ve just put on fillers.
