What can take one amazing lip shade to the next level? Mixing it with another awesome hue.
Break out this little trick to brighten your face, mood and dayAt a moment when the bittiest things can bring deeply-felt moments of joy, the power of an uplifting lip colour should not be minimized. But, did you know you can make one great colour even better? A go-to move among makeup artists, blending two shades can create a customized look for next-level results.
“By mixing two different colours you are able to change the depth, warmth, coolness, and texture of your favourite lipstick,” says makeup artist Karima Sumar, who applies the method personally and professionally. There’s also a built-in fun factor, and the opportunity to dig out your lesser-used shades. Because who doesn’t have a few tubes of not-so-bang-on hues hanging around?
“This technique sparks creativity, and in the end you’re not being wasteful,” says Jodi Urichuk, L’Oréal Paris Canada makeup artist and expert. “Pros often[lipsticks] so that we carry less and also use shades that normally get ignored. If I see it I’ll use it.” Plus, this trick is easy to master, no expert cosmetic skills required.
Sumar follows a similar strategy. “When I mix a shade, I usually start with the colour I am most attracted to, treating it as ‘the base.’ From there, I see how I can alter it to best suit the look I’m creating, using a small scoop of a secondary colour,” she says. If you’re naturally adventurous, or once you’ve acquired some cosmetics confidence, the options are endless. “It’s fun to grab two totally different colours and see what happens.
