These designs are great all year round – not only during Halloween.

We have all heard about nail art ideas but what about lip art ideas? That’s right, the trend of wearing cool patterns on your lips sometimes accompanied by rhinestones is definitely gaining popularity.

This creative form of makeup using a mixture of lipsticks, liners and even gems has seen many inspiration images floating around on social media. From cookie monster lip art to a floral bouquet, the possibilities are basically endless.

When it comes to creating lip art, it is crucial to have the following tools – a mixture of lipstick formulas, lip pencils and brushes. From mattes to glosses, the various lipsticks formulas can be used to create dimension and make your designs pop even more. To create your designs, sketch with a nude or flesh toned lip pencil to form the preliminary design. Once you are satisfied with the design, fill it in using different colours and shades with a lip pencil brush. To blend, use a small shader brush to diffuse the colours.

Practice makes perfect and if you are looking for inspiration, head over to the gallery up top for a round up of lip art looks to try next. No reason to leave your lips untouched now.
