Make Your Lips Pop With This Oil Slick Makeup Hack
With the fall season right around the corner, it’s time to start re-evaluating your lip game. In typical cooler-temp fashion, dark and moody colors are absolutely killing it (read: totally dominating the runways and street-style stars alike), and you’ll want to add a bit of dark magic into your beauty routine stat. From the gorgeous vampy lip to matte black hues, there are a ton of looks to choose from if you want to satisfy your inner ’90s grunge girl. For the truly daring at heart, we bring you a standout look that checks all the throwback boxes — oil slick lips, which are making their way onto beauty blogger’s pouts thanks to their shiny, multi-layered effect that can range from sweet pastels to deep shades of navy and charcoal. While it might take a few tries to conquer, the effort is totally worth it. Need a new fall trend to get behind? Here are eight oil slick lips to try ASAP.
1. Blue and Black: Need a new look for GNO? Give this ultra-vampy lip a go the next time you’re going for sultry-meets-girly vibes.
2. Rainbow: Give your pout an extra bit of pizzazz with a rainbow-hued design. Outline your pucker with a hint of concealer to keep this out-of-this-world look in place.
