Ombre lip makeup is making a name for itself on TikTok: Here's the secret

Remember the dark lips of the 90s? Well, ombre lips (the combination of two shades, one dark and one light) are the modern version that is being seen everywhere on social media.

The hashtag #ombrélips has 1.7 billion (not million) views on TikTok. Apparently, everyone loves a two-tone make up. But dark and ombre lips are two completely different things, although the effects are similar at first glance.

How to create lips with ombre effect?

You'll need at least two shades for the perfect lip color, plus a gloss if you like.

1- Start by prepping your lips, a little exfoliation and moisturizing to ensure the right base for makeup
2- Massage your lips with a little scrub to remove dead skin
3- Apply balm
4- Place the light shade in the center of the lips, then the darkest one for the edges and to paint them completely
5-Use your finger or a brush for a fuller make-up effect
6-At the end, a layer of glitter and ready
