New season, new lippie! Spring is here, meaning it’s time to rid yourself of the same ole nude lipstick. In 2024, spring lip combos call for brighter colors, so bring out your pinks, purples, and reds!
Whether you’re outside with your girls all summer or taking baecations, having multiple lip combos under your belt is imperative. Lippies not only finish off your makeup beat, but they can coordinate with your outfits. While nude lip combos are versatile, they’re also dull! So, it’s time to jazz things up in the lip makeup department. Here are five spring lip combos you must try.
1. Glossy Red
Red lippies have always been in style, as they are versatile and a makeup staple. However, in 2024, the girls are glossing it up! For a glossy red lip, grab a brown liner, deep red lipstick, and a red gloss. Be sure to apply the deep red to the outer parts of your lips, then use gloss to blend everything. Use a lip brush to blend the liner and deep red to bring the look to life.
2. Orange-nude Lip Combo
If you must wear a nude lip, add a little color! Orange is the perfect color for Black girls, bringing out our natural hues. Like usual, reach for your favorite brown liner and line your lips. For a deeper brown, apply a little black liner on top. Grab a light peach lipstick, then add brown gloss to the edges of your lips. Top it all off with a clear gloss and you’re good to go!
3. Sheer Lips
Do you ever want to throw on a little lip gloss and brow gel, but it never feels complete? If so, 2024 is your year! With the uptick of brands offering lip oils, you can now easily have a little color on your lips. Pick a color you love, something bright and colorful for the season, and throw it in your purse when you are on the go.
4. Purple Tones
Often considered too loud or youthful, purple has slowly faded into the background as a makeup shade. But as people continue to explore makeup, purple is making a comeback. This year, head to the makeup store and find the best purple shade for you. If you like dimensional lippies, purchase a colorful liner, like red.
5. “Juicy” Lippies
In 2024, lip combos are the main attraction of makeup beats, so the girls are upping the ante! Juicy lip combos are typically lippies that resemble the colors of different juices and are highly glossy. Apply your brown liner, then add a juicy color on top. Red to resemble cherries, peach to resemble peaches, or pink to resemble strawberries are great options to choose from!
For 2024, the goal is to wear lip combos that match your personality and aura. Find the colors that make you feel good and pair them with your skin tone for the best results. Most importantly, don’t forget your brown liner!
