First use this: Make Up For Ever Rouge Artist Intense Lipstick in Moulin Rouge: A bold and vibrant red, this color is a bit too much for me even for a casual evening look, but for performance or a special occasion, it is absolutely perfect. Create the shape of your lips using the lipstick, which will glide more easily and will be a cinch to touch up if you make a mistake. It is highly pigmented, however, and I recommend keeping some makeup removing toilettes on hand.

Then use this: Smashbox Jet Set Waterproof Eyeliner in Midnight Black: This handy little black liner comes in a pot, allowing you to choose the brush you use for application. When using the liner on your lids for an everyday look, your standard angled eyeliner brush is recommended. For this look, I used a slightly thicker lipstick brush with this dark, velvety liner to outline the lips.

To white out the rest of your actual lips, use whatever concealer you have laying around. I recommend lathering up with some chapstick before you start because the concealer may dry out your lips. Cement the whole thing in place for the night by spraying some sealant over your lips and patting with sheer powder after it’s dried to set.
