Hey guys,

Plum is one of my favourite bold lip colours, especially for the colder seasons. Although, such a bold lip can clash with other makeup such as your eye-shadow. Bold lips looks beautiful when the rest of the makeup is simple, so hold back on the smokey eye for now. A good time to go all in and wear bold lips with a bold eye is a very formal evening event like a dinner or a river cruise. Now you know what makeup to wear to compliment a bold lip, it's time to focus on how to actually apply it.
A bold lip must be very clean cut with defined edges. A simple way to do this is of course to use lip liner. I suggest, if possible, pick a liner a shade darker then the lipstick/gloss etc. This will give your lips a more defined and shaped look. Alternatively you can go straight in with a lipstick pencil, my favourite being the Maybelline Color Drama in Berry Much, which has a semi-matte, velvet finish. This will give your lips a very full look. Once you've applied your lip colour, its time to define a bit more. With a concealer, I like to use an under eye concealer because it is brighter, place dabs of it in the corners, bow and bottom of your lip. Now with a lip liner brush, or, alternatively, any small thin brush, outline your lips with teh concealer by spreading it. Then blend it out so it looks natural and voila! You have a very bold, defined lip.
