Vampy Lips!
So for these truly vampy lips you can do the lips two ways. If you like you don't have to add the teeth and just go for a fall vampy lip, but if this is a Halloween look I say go for it and add the teeth! All I needed was a few things. I wanted to recreate a look I seen on Pinterest so I tried to stay true to the colors, but you can use any colors you like. I used a black, dark purple, and a red lipstick to create the ombre effect. I also used a black eyeliner to create a crisp lip line and a shimmery gloss to add that extra effect. For the teeth I used cream face paint that you can find everywhere for a dollar. All my lip products are Wet n Wild including the black eyeliner pencil.
Additional items I would recommend is a lip brush to help blend the colors as well as line your lips.

Here Are The Steps:

  1. For this look I used the black lipstick and the lip brush to line my lips. I lined my natural lips and blended the black down one third of the way down my top lip and did the same to the bottom.
  2. After this I added the dark purple and blended it into the black and down, but still left the inner part of my lips bare.
  3. From there I added the red to the center and blended the red to the purple.
  4. After that I went over my lips with the liner and relined my lips. I also blended any harsh lines that I may have left. You can leave the lip there and have a nice matte lip or take it a little further.
  5. Once my lips were the way I wanted I painted the vampire teeth on, using my natural teeth as a guide. once they dry I added one more coat to have the teeth be as white as possible.
  6. This step is optional but I added some gloss I had on hand. I made sure to not blend the gloss over the teeth. Otherwise you will have a mess.
  7. An extra tip is you can go around the edges of your lips with a concealer to make them extra crisp, also helps if your lines are not what you wanted.
  8. Now you have vampy lips.
