@@maffieduran but they’re literally right? us black and brown girls have been contouring our lips since forever, even if we didn’t explicitly call it that. they’re calling it the right technical term.
@@yoshita4140 it’s not even contour. You’re just lining your lips like- what? You’re calling in contour just because the liner is brown??? It’s idiotic. I know we’ve been doing it since forever but tik tok calling it lip contour like it’s a new invention irks me
@@Ishouldnthavebeensopublic what? you’re calling it contour because it’s adding depth and shadows to your lip. that’s the definition of contour. even if you took a dark pink lip liner with a light pink lipstick, you’re still adding shadows in that particular tone. it being brown has nothing to do with it being a contouring technique. i personally haven’t seen anybody pretend that this is some new trick because makeup artists of all races know this is like, the basics of makeup. but if there are people pretending they invented it then that’s obviously not right
@@yoshita4140 i mean really the thing is darker skinned people tend to have hyper pigmented lips, so using a pink thats the shade of their lips in the center doesnt work for the entire thing since the outer part is usually darker. contouring is usually to add depth as in like dimension, 3D. On women of color it can be to add depth, but its usually just to match the natural gradient our lips already have.
@@kikilee7162There weren’t always a range of colors that looked good on darker skin tones or darker lips (and maybe very pale skin tones and lips??). Decades ago (and probably in more recent years), some people HAD to get creative with tips like these because that’s the only way they could get a good lip shade. People of other complexions did it too because they liked the look, but they didn’t HAVE to do it sinc they had so many other options (for lip shades and lip liner shades). I lived through it, and I lived in a metropolitan area, so access wasn’t the issue. Makeup was made for people in a specific skin tone range, and everyone else just had to make it work or look a little “off” because the shade just wasn’t right for them. The internet wasn’t a thing, so there were no beauty gurus making a ton of free beauty tutorials either. 😂
You're so funny! Powered donuts 😂 For people who don't know the lady in the clip, she is a professional makeup artist based in France. Andrea is darling and teaches people how to place makeup. She teaches as if she is working with a person new to makeup. She probably has known about this contour trick for a long time.
@@Ang0202 Oh, thats where she's from? I remember her saying in a video comparing American vs French makeup, that she lives in France but that she wasn't French and I was like oh?....
Buy different matte deep brown lipsticks and use them as liners or to tone down lip colours. The edges of the stick work well enough as an fine edge if you can't find a good enough lip liner. Try gel eyeliners too. Their consistency works quite well. This is more of an option though, when you're in a pickle x
Ali andrea is a professional makeup artist and she probably knew it before 😄 but she is teaching her fallowers. I personally always had two nude lipliner darker than my lips to adjust lighter lipsticks and a lighter nude one to combine the color with a lipstick that is a bit too brown for me. I always preferred mixing the color of the lipstick and the lipliner and blending it at the end with my fingers.
Mhmm one of the first makeup tricks I ever learned, well that and using a dry q-tip for mascara smudges Anyway brown lip liner really is your bestie, it’s the base of literally all of my lip combos
When you said, "I look like I ate to many powdered donuts." I lost it! In my head I saw the picture of my little girl who had to many powdered donuts making the same face you did...lol. Beautiful & sweet.
I remember the adults and teens around me in the 90s/00s doing this, I'd do it if only flesh toned eyeliners weren't impossible to find and all that arrives here wasn't pink or red
YES indeed! My lips are two different shades as well, and I've been lining my lips since my Mom' started to let me wear makeup in highschool... Basically, since the late 80's! LMBOFF! 🤣🤗 You are stunning BTW! Stay safe 😘💜
There are SOOO many women all over the world with pigmented lips! Pinks aren't "natural" for everyone. Of course most colors aren't going to look right on us without that blessed brown liner to bring back our natural lip definition.
Yes I'm brown not black and this is the only reason I didn't impusivly through out all my nude lippes like I used to. Fun fact this is also why the lip trend use whatever yous do for your brown to line ur lips and whatever you use for blusb in the center... works for eyebruone
Tan-dark skin girls have been doing this for a while now... how did they just find out? My mom is literally white (I'm mixed race) and this is the first makeup thing she ever taught me.
The original lady in the video is a make up artist who also makes videos showing people who have no idea about make up what to do! So really young people, or those who never wear it etc (:
Girl nobody said only black ppl knew this. She’s just saying usually light pink shades look ashy on brown skin, so we gotta use brown lip liner to balance it out. Just because it doesn’t apply to you doesn’t mean you’re inherently being left out 🙄
And everyone knows about it. That's my point. That's what it's used for. Contouring lips with lip liner has been done for decades. So no one is catching on. 😕 idk why your so dense. 🤷
lol im a 11 yr old white girl and i even know that trick, my mother is very pale, unlike me, im a bit tan, so she doesnt need to use that trick. she often uses very light lip shades and i always stared and wondered how it fit her and not me 😂 but then in the future i learned how to make any lip shade fit me! im so glad i found out! i will totally need it in the future. love ya darcei!
I found this out pretty quickly when learning makeup because I loved seeing this look on black girls. It looks much better on them in my opinion but I still like to do it. ❤️❤️
Is there someone out there that has not contoured once in their life nor tried foundation? I feel so left out, I only use mascara, blush, lipliner, gloss and a little highlighter
