3 steps to rock wine lips like Rihanna




When it comes to deep, dark and intense lip colours, only few can ace the game. However, this doesn't mean you can't do burgundy like a pro! If your lipstick lexicon needs a do-over, who better than Rihanna to help you shake things up a little. The pop icon matched her velvety bordeaux lips with a sharp feline streak—bringing that classic old Hollywood charm to the red carpet.

LancĂ´me India's National Make-up Artist, Stafford Braganza, shows you how to rock wine lips like RiRi, without letting your lips bleed:

Select your wine(stain): While burgundy with its warm undertones is great for Indian skin, Braganza picks just the right spectrum of garnet for you—"deep, warm brick tones for darker skin, cool reds with golden undertones for medium skin, and coral reds for fairer skin."

Define the 'V': "Bordeaux lip colours have a tendency to bleed, so fill in your lips with a lip liner first. Start with the upper lip by defining the V, then follow the natural lip line, and move on to filling them for a more structured freshness," explains Braganza.

#NoFilter: Tap a bit of sheer gloss on the centre of the mouth for a selfie-ready pout.
