BEAUTY BAR: Naturally Bold

It’s time to go back to school and that means that the fall season is right around the corner, but in the meanwhile, we have to adapt to these last few summer days.

Not only do we have to adapt, but so does our makeup routine. During the summer, a full face of makeup just doesn’t make sense. It’s heavy and you feel like your face is melting off (or maybe it’s just me). So, what better way to transform your look than with a great lip color? Personally I worship a bold lip, but something a bit subtler gets the job done just as well.

A bit of color on the lip instantly captures my attention because it’s an easy way to tell that a person put a bit more effort into getting ready that day. The right lip color can change your outfit from day to night, sweet to sexy or tame to daring. This Fashionista perfects the neutral but bold lip color by keeping the rest of her makeup simple, which allowed the beautiful mauve color to really stand out. However, great makeup is not complete without the right outfit. Although the top is printed, she kept the outfit simple with denim cut-offs and strappy sandals.

What’s on the BEAUTY BAR: To achieve this standout neutral lip look, find a color that is a shade darker than your natural lip color but is still a part of the nude family. After applying your favorite lip balm, apply the lip color. To add definition, use a lip liner and then clean the edges up with a concealer. Remember, confidence is key when rocking a rad lip.
