What says February 14th better than red lips? Not much!

Here’s a color that will get you in the mood for love! To get this luscious, red pop, I layered two lip colors on top of each other. The first is a slightly blue-toned NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Dragon Girl and the second is NARS Audacious Lipstick in Annabella, a deep red. Separately, they’re both really pretty, but together they are WOW!

Put the lip pencil on first all over your lip. The soft texture goes on very smooth, but it’s a little harder to get it perfect around the edge due to the bluntness of the crayon, so I recommend using a lip brush. Once it’s set and your lips are shaped as desired, apply the lipstick directly on top, matching the line of the crayon. Use the lip brush to clean up any frayed edges.

Et voila! Beautiful bright lips, ready for Valentine’s Day! Pucker up and have a wonderful day celebrating with those you love!
