This tutorial is centred around editorial red lipstick. Our aim is to contrast the natural looking elements of skin and brows with a perfectly crisp red lip. A healthy dose of highlighting and contouring ensures that the final look is striking while embodying modern minimalism.

You look beautiful, as always Karima! There’s nothing quite so striking as well done, minimal base makeup paired with a bold red lip.

this is a GREAT video!!! it would be really awesome if, perhaps, ur lights werent so bright that way we can see a difference on the skin as you add highlighter ect ect. seeing a difference with each step is really what makes watching tutorials so fun. you are amazing!! please keep them coming!
Hi!

That is stunning Karima! I am so glad you are making videos, your pictures look professional with your new cam – love that! You may know that already but red IS my fav colour of all times. I just love looking at every tutorial featuring something red, especially lips. Your features are amazing and so perfect! I am now going to wear my YSL red or Chanel pirate. I want more of such beautiful posts ;)
