How to create rainbow lips for Pride

We’re all gearing up to have the brightest Pride yet. But, as always, choosing our look is a lot harder than we thought. There are so many options! All about the peepers? Check out our Rainbow eye make-up look. Fancy some fancy facial hair? Glitter beards are where it’s at. But if you’re looking for the perfect Pride-inspired pout, you’ve come to the right place. Here’s our guide on how to create the ultimate rainbow lip look. It’s bold, it’s daring and it’s perfect for the occasion.

Prep your pout

For a lippy look that’s gonna last all day, you can’t skip primer. Use the Collection Primed and Ready Lip Primer before any other product to perfectly prep your pout.

Sorry, this product is currently out of stock.

Blank canvas

For the boldest look possible, you want to start with a completely clean slate. Colour shows up best against white, so if you want your lips to pop, laying down a base of the B. Kohl Eyeliner in White is a must. Start by lining your lips for precision, then fill them in.

Ready for the rainbow

Using rainbow colours from the Revolution Pro Regeneration Palette in Mischief Matte, start applying shadows in rainbow order (red, orange, yellow, green and blue). Pack on the colour with a flat eyeshadow brush, slightly overlapping the shades to ensure a seamless finish.

We’ve chosen to apply the colours in vertical lines across both lips, going from left to right, but you can really get creative here, so do whatever you like best!

Get glossed

We love this as it is, but if you’re a fan of glossy lips (as we are!) get your shine on with a sweep of the MUA Luxe Unique Lip Gloss. Apply a gentle lick of this to both lips, blend the colours, and amp up that pout-popping gloss factor.
