The Ultimate Red Lip
Vanity Stories has covered the bold red lip before, and I am happy to link it here for those who missed it. Beyond this, the details are simple. As Lauren Valenti noted in her recent Vogue edit, the look is from the genius of Fenty Beauty makeup artist, Priscilla Ono.
THE PRODUCT:
Set & Seal
Shimmering lids were the result of applied glitter wings directly above the upper lash line, while Fenty products produced that familiar Caribbean glow we all desperately crave. We’ve added the confirmed list of face-base cosmetics below (from Ono to you), but feel free to adapt to suit the products you have at your disposal.
