This week, for a V-day editorial on Beautybulletin.com, I was asked (as one of their official bloggers) which lipstick I would choose to wear on Valentine’s Day as my favourite.
This led to a bit of a dilemma, as I currently have 2 favourites, and I didn’t know how to choose between them… Ā and so my first ever two tone lips look was born š
This look is quite fun, and I think the key is to keep it simple. The pink & the red lipsticks that I used appear quite similar once on my lips, with just that subtle little difference to make thingsĀ interesting.
I used Colour Show Off Lipstick from Rimmel London – 220 Shocking Pink – on my upper lip.
And Lip Color Lipstick from Bobbi Brown – A30 Vixen Red – on my bottom lip.
This then led to the idea of some two tone nails to match:
I did a full coat of Rimmel LondonĀ 60 seconds in 315 Rockān Red on all my nails.
And for the lighter pink colour that I used on the halfmoon area, I mixed together:
Ā Rimmel London Lycra Professional Finish – 352 Posh Spice – with Orly French Manicure – Je T’aime – and Rimmel LondonĀ Lycra Nail Tip Whitener
This look also brings on early Valentines day vibes… š Let me know what you guys think?! And please share your own Two Tone Lips creations with me in the comment section š

I love the lips, but I can`t help but think that they would get mixed up throughout the day, and you`d end with one color fuchsia lips on top and bottom. Now that I think about it, though, that isn`t necessarily a bad thing!
You’re absolutely right š unless you’re using stay fast (smudge proof) lipsticks, the 2 colours do gradually merge into one throughout the day. But as you said, not a bad thing either;) PS. love what you did with your ‘about’ page on your blog! Very original & entertaining!!
Thank you! I felt a little bored by the original myself, so I thought I should spruce things up a bit. (:
