Pinkish liner for a nude lip

If you think one of these images looks more like the lips of a corpse and the other looks like the lips of a live person wearing a nude lip, then you're correct! What's behind the subtle, yet striking difference? After applying your nude lip color all over, sweep a pale pink liner on the inside area where your top and bottom lips meet. and lightly blend to breathe some life back into the look. Try Bobbi Brown Lip Liner, $22, in Pale Pink if you have a light to medium skin tone, or Givenchy Lip Liner, $26, in Rose if you have a medium to dark skin tone.
