The Famous K-Pop Gradient Lips

  Have you ever wonder how do Kpop singers got those lovely lips? And whenever you look at them you want it to be yours?     It is called Gradient Lips, It is very famous make up technique in Korea. It emphasizes the lips to make the upper lip a bit pointy and the lower lip to look plummer. Many Korean stars and commoners use this technique as there daily routine. I will teach you how n_n 
   
 1.) First you have to prepare your materials. Some cosmetics offers an easy way on how to make it like Aritaum Wanna Be Cushion tint and more. You can get them on instagram but a bit pricey. I prefer to use this technique cause it looks more natural for me. Any lip tint (i prefer color red), a lip balm colorless, small towel, lip concealer and colorless lip shiner. 
  
 2.) In order to have healthy looking lips you have to exfoliate it first to remove dead cells. You do this by putting lip balm on your lips and then scrub it with a towel. You can exfoliate lips twice a week to achieve healthy looking lips. 

 3.) Now we will start after scrubbing you put a little lip balm again to have a smooth base. Then put a nude lipstick or a lip concealer. I think its available on Etude House. You should put all over the lips. Then get a piece of cotton buds or if you happen to have Tony Molly lip tint or The Face Shops My Lips Eat Cherry Aqua tint dab it on your lower lips just like on the photo below. Then across the lips and to the Upper lips you should follow the direction of the tip of your lips. Application of the tint is the Key here. It varies on every lips. Just always keep in mind the lower lips must have wider tint application than on the upper lip. Basically the ratio of the tint 1:3. Then spread it gently and carefully not to smudge to much. Just follow how the photo below. Then once you achieve your gradient you now apply clear lip shiner! And VIOLA! Instant KPOP STAR!!!
