To Get the Look:
For a natural mermaid look, start with a dewy foundation. Add some shimmery highlighter to your cheekbones, brow bones and down the center of your nose. Use a light hand when applying bronzer to contour your face. Then, add a pop of color with coral or pink blush on the apples of your cheeks. So here’s the breakdown:
1. Prep Your Battle Station:
You will need a three color mermaid lipstick and loads of party glitter
Start with a clean, moisturized lip canvas. Exfoliate your lips if needed to get rid of any dry patches. This step is crucial for achieving a smooth and even application.
2. Choose Your Palette:
Mermaid lips often feature a blend of ocean-inspired shades. Think shimmery blues, teals, and even hints of seafoam green. You can use liquid lipsticks, lip liners, or even eyeshadows to create the desired effect.
3. Create a Gradient:
To achieve that mesmerizing mermaid effect, you’ll want to create a gradient on your lips. Start with the darkest shade on the outer corners and gradually transition to a lighter shade towards the center of your lips.
4. Add a Touch of Shimmer:
No mermaid lip is complete without a little shimmer and sparkle. You can apply a shimmering lip gloss or dab on some iridescent eyeshadow to the center of your lips for that extra pizzazz.
5. Lip Liner:
Don’t forget to line your lips with a shade that complements your chosen colors. A slightly darker or matching liner can help define your lips and prevent the colors from bleeding. Whether you’re rocking Mermaid Lips at the beach, a festival, or just because it makes you feel fabulous, keep shining and riding those makeup waves.
For eyes, use light and airy colors like seafoam green or sky blue. Line your upper lash line with black liquid liner and wing it out at the corners for an extra dramatic look.
Curl your lashes and apply plenty of mascara. Finish off by adding some shimmery white shadow to the inner corners of your eyes.
Your lips can be any color you want – from nude to bright pink or red – just make sure they’re hydrated so they don’t dry out during wear. Add some gloss in the center of your bottom lip for extra poutiness!
Now that you have the perfect mermaid makeup look, it’s time to accessorize! Throw on some dangly earrings and a bracelet or two (nothing too heavy). If you have long hair, put it up in a messy bun or fishtail braid – if you have short hair, let it flow freely! And don’t forget about nails – paint them in a fun ocean-inspired shade like turquoise or sea green!
