Ombre & Gold

also used Pari Cosmetics blue green pigment to finish off the ombre effect..

for the black look, gold flakes were used.. along with black eyeshadow from War Paint Beauty from hot topic..
HOW TO

*Ombre look, 1] I used NYX's #808 Deep Purple liner to line and fill my lips.
2] I applied my Revlon's Super Stay Lustrous lipstick in Va Va Violet all over my lips.
3] to finish the look, I took my blue green Pari Cosmetics pigment and placed it on the centers of both my top and bottom lips with my brush and finger. Making sure to pat it well to blend it.

*Gold Foiled
1] I don't have a black lipstick right now, so i primed my lips and applied black shadow to both my top and bottom lip in dark even layers.
2] to give my lips a semi-glossed look and a tacky texture for the foil to adhere to I applied a vitamin E lip vaseline in a thin layer (lip gloss will work as well).. also when doing so, I made sure not to press or smear the vaseline too hard so I didn't mess up or remove the black base..
3] Last, I applied my gold leaf pieces in various colors and sizes.. and touched up the black and vaseline in some spots. That's it! :)
