PREVIEW Bench Muses Inspired Look - Bordeaux Lips (Video)

Deep red-wine lips are everywhere - from the runways to TV shows and even on the glossy pages of fashion magazines.

One great example is Preview magazine's October edition, where its gorgeous cover girls are rocking bold, dark lips.

I decided to do my version of the look but toned it down just enough to be wearable on a regular day- minimal eye makeup, well-defined brows with dark plummy lips.

Flirty Pink-Purple Makeup

When in doubt, skip the sushi counter.

That's the lesson I unfortunately learned when my stomach fought with me the entire weekend after I gobbled like three platters of sashimi Friday evening. 

I had an inkling that the quality of the sushi from that restaurant was not at par with the standards of the other buffets we frequent to, but I just can never stop myself from happily crowding my plate with raw fishes when it's right there! in front of me!

Sheesh, what pains I suffered for my gluttony.

Moving on...

As I noted in my sneak-peek post, I will be using drugstore makeup products for this flirty pink-purple look.

It's quite easy to do, something you could wear when you're going out on a casual date -  it's gonna look fun and sassy without coming off as try-hard. Nobody wants that, right?

Here you go, I hope you like it!

Step 1- Prep

For that fresh and flawless look, I reached out for my HG bb cream and with a powder blush, I buffed it into my skin in small circular motions to make sure the product doesn't sit on top of my pores.

I skipped setting the bb cream with powder, but if you want the makeup to last longer, go ahead and do so.
