Purple Lip Liner
Purple lip liner makes a bold statement, whether you wear it alone or paired with lipstick. The fine tip defines your lips and gives you a sharp, polished look. Purple lip liner comes in a range of shades to suit your personality, from pale violet to rich, deep plum.
What Are Some Types of Purple Lip Liner?
The type of lip liner you choose affects the application process and the final result. Retractable purple lip liners, such as Milani Easyliner, create a precise, well-defined line. You can twist the base to advance the tip, so there's no need for sharpening. If you're planning to fill in your lips with color, the best purple lip liner might be a lip crayon with a wide tip and a creamy consistency. A classic pencil lip liner offers the best of both worlds; the smooth tip covers large areas with ease, and you can sharpen it to achieve a crisp line.
How Do You Wear Purple Lip Liner?
There are several ways to wear purple lip liner. If you want to tone down the color of bright or dark purple lip liner, consider filling in your lips with color and wearing the liner alone; this method is usually most effective when you use a creamy pencil or crayon. For an extra burst of shine, add a layer of lip gloss.
For a stronger effect, you can wear purple lip liner with lipstick. If you go this route, consider how the two colors go together. In most cases, you can create a sharp look with a purple liner that's one or two shades darker than your lipstick. Try to match the undertones and the finish for a seamless blend.
How to Apply Purple Lip Liner
Lip liner tends to draw attention to tiny pieces of dry skin, so it's a good idea to prepare your lips by exfoliating and moisturizing. Then, holding the liner in your dominant hand, outline the exterior of your upper and lower lips using small strokes. To make your lips look fuller, place the tip just outside your natural lip line.
When you're wearing lip liner as a standalone product, fill in the rest of your lips with color. If needed, soften the liner with a layer of lip balm. If you're planning to add lipstick, use a lip brush to blend the inside edge of the line. Then, fill in your lips with lipstick.
