Tried ombre with the colors that are going viral, but on your lips they just look dull and make your face look pale? It might not be your technique at all, but the colors simply don't match your warm undertone yet. Relax, Lora has prepared combos that make warm skin look fresher!
Hi, Implovers! Lora here. In this article, we're covering ombre lips combos made specifically for warm-undertone skin, from shade choices and how to apply them to tips for a neat, comfortable result. Everything uses New Implora Urban Matte Lip Cream.
Undertone is the base hue of your skin that doesn't change, even when your skin looks darker or lighter because of the weather. Skin with a warm undertone tends to have a warm hue, and usually looks freshest in colors that also have a warm hue. The impact on ombre is huge. Because ombre plays with two colors at once, one color that doesn't suit you can make the whole gradient look off, for example lips that look pale or a face that looks tired. If you're still unsure about your undertone, try swatching a few shades on the back of your hand or directly on your lips, then pick the one that makes your skin look the freshest.
Warm skin generally looks freshest in peach, reddish orange, and brown tones. So the good ombre lipstick colors for you are a warm-toned base, then a deeper inner color to add dimension. According to Implora's recommendations, the shades that suit warm skin by skin brightness are:
This list can be your starting point before you start experimenting with the combos below.
The first color is used as the base, the second color as the inner.
If you want to start with the safest option, pick 01 Dusky Nude + 11 Red Bean. The contrast between the two colors is soft, so the gradient is easy to keep neat.
New Implora Urban Matte Lip Cream makes these steps easier. The texture is creamy and lightweight, so it's easy to blend without making your lips feel tugged. The color is pigmented in a single swipe, so there's no need to layer. The applicator that follows your lip contours also helps create a precise lip line all the way to the corners of your mouth, without an extra lip liner.
A beautiful color means nothing if your lips feel dry by midday. That's why this product's matte finish is made non-drying with Sodium Hyaluronate, Shea Butter, and Vitamin E. Sodium Hyaluronate helps hydrate the lips and maintain their elasticity, Shea Butter helps moisturize and nourish, and Vitamin E helps protect the lips from damage.
The formula is also transferproof and quick set, so your gradient doesn't easily move onto your glass or mask. The color has minimal oxidation too, so the shade stays true to the original.
Which combo is the safest for beginners?
Start with 01 Dusky Nude + 11 Red Bean. The contrast is soft, so the gradient is easy to create.
Can you make ombre with two shades from the same product?
Yes. All the combos above use New Implora Urban Matte Lip Cream, so you don't need to mix in other product lines.
Which combo suits formal events?
01 Dusky Nude + 20 Red Gala. The brown-tinged red inner gives an elegant impression.
