Learn how to balance a bold lip with natural eye makeup

Lipstick has a long and interesting history. Bold lips, especially, have been en vogue throughout the years, and today's liquid lipstick makes the trend even easier to follow. Liquid products are often more pigmented, so the product lasts longer while delivering intense color.

If you've never worn a bold lip color, you should keep a couple of things in mind before trying one out. It's important to keep your face looking balanced. By opting for natural eye makeup, bold lipstick will really attract attention.

This tutorial shows how to achieve a naturally beautiful eye makeup look that doesn't clash or overpower a bold, berry lip. This combination is the most wearable for daytime, but feel free to pull out all the stops when prepping for a night on the town.
