We're almost done. The face is almost complete. The eyes are completely done. We just need to do the lips. With this dramatic look, I always recommend doing something light and simple. A glossy neutral pink is always the best way to go. Carmen Electra, normally, you'll see her in a glossy nude or glossy pink or something really neutral. Sometimes you'll see her in a red, but with eyes like this, if you did a red lip it would just look way too over dramatic. We're going to do a nice neutral glossy pink, something that you would see her in on the red carpet. Most of the time what you would see her in normally. I'm taking a kind of a sheer iridescent pink lipstick. I'm just going to do a layer all over the lips with this lipstick. I'm not using a liner because Lizzie has really nice big lips. If you don't have big lips and you don't want to use a lip just to draw in or to give some more depth to your lips, then feel free to do that. Use something neutral. Don't use something really dark. Once you have a nice even coat of the lipstick on the lips, then you want to take something really glossy. A glossy pink, a glossy pink clear. Anything sheer and glossy. I'm using a glossy pink that has a shimmer to it. This is a night look. You can really glam it up. I'm putting that just right in the pout area. If she were to pucker, that's where you would put it. That just gives that illusion of that really big puffy lip look. It just finishes off the look completely. There we go.
