I get a ton of questions on my instagram and Facebook asking about my lip color. I wanted to share my go to lip combo that I wear ninety percent of the time. It is a classic nude lip and can go with many skin tones! I use these on a lot of my clients and thought it would be a good suggestion for you all as well! I hope you will try it out and let me know what you think. Let me know in the comments below what your favorite lip combination is and I will be sure to check those colors out as well!

MAC COSMETICS : Lip Pencil : “Stripdown”

How to use:

Begin with Stripdown lip pencil and outline the outer edges of your lips, I tend to overdraw my lips on the bottom and outer corners for added fullness, you can follow the natural line of your lip if you would like. Then, I fill in the inside of the lip almost all of the way, except for the very middle where your lips are naturally more full. I then take the Japanese Maple and apply it directly to the center of my lips where I did not apply the lip pencil. After you apply the lip stick take your finger and blend in the edges of the lipstick to the lip pencil. Viola! You now have a perfect nude lip!

Let me know how it works out! If you try this nude lip be sure to hashtag #airellesnyder on instagram or tag me!
