QUEEN BEE
The latest sweet addition to the food and beauty aesthetics trend is honey lips, coined by beauty content creator Eva Larosa. Mimic the juicy glow of honey by applying a loose gold shimmer on the center of your pout before applying a clear lip gloss.
RICH BREW
“Latte makeup” quickly became a favorite look by many, but let’s meet “espresso makeup,” the deeper, darker, and sultrier older sister of the former. Instead of using nude and caramel lipsticks, opt for velvety chocolates or mocha lip shades that perfectly match bronzed skin.
SODA POP
Combining reds and browns with high-shine textures, the cherry cola lip trend is all about looking daring and sexy. Top tip: Use a dark lip liner and shade it slightly at the corners to give more of a pouty effect. Using a lacquered lip gloss will also give it a juicier finish.
SWEET TALK
“Strawberry girl” makeup isn’t complete without a natural-looking, plump lip— made famous by Hailey Bieber. Finish the sun-kissed look by patting the same pink cream blush onto the lips. Pro tip: For added dimension, apply a darker pink hue on the inner lip for an ombré effect.
NIGHTCAP
A food beauty trend that will never go out of style is wine-stained lips. From rich burgundies to plum or brownish-red tones, it’s a versatile option that suits casual outings and formal events.
